JUST A MINUTE Minutemen Project dangerous but puts focus on immigration policy
Houston Chronicle ^ | April 7, 2005, 8:26PM | Editorial

Posted on 04/09/2005 7:03:51 AM PDT by harrowup

A Houstonian armed to the teeth stands atop his pickup truck in the Arizona desert. He wishes to deter illegal immigrants from Mexico, but he and his confederates will fail. Border Patrol officials said some civilian observers set off motion detectors, complicating rather than aiding the agency's mission.

You do realize that your statement, repeated so often singles you out as a bigot and racist.

Quote: "It is not necessary to demonize those with whom you disagree. Joke if you wish and tease if you can, but just as in any bar or social hall, some of the names we call one another lack humor and jest."--harrowup post#223

Care to explain why you exempt yourself from your own advice?

I have seen a lot of serial hypocrites come and go on this forum but you are in a league by yourself.

You made a fool of yourself on LP the other day with this kind of race baiting and blatant hypocrisy and were banned because of it. Sad to see you continue it here. Especially given that you are a left-wing ACLU Democrat.

These so called Americans who want us joined at the hip with the totally corrupt non-functioning entity to the south of us are either mentally ill, or very corrupt themselves.

That sums it up nicely. It does boggle the mind.

Please take note of the description of the Minutemen at the beginning of the article.

"Confederates"

Thats your wacko liberal media trying desperately to tar the MM as racists. You know the BS game the Lib Media plays is always about the race card. Confederates = "Civil War Confederates" = pro slavery = KKK = etc......

When the US puts immigration reform in place, our interdiction forces will be allowed to begin operating in Mexico.

Sure, that sounds PERFECTLY reasonable.

"Interdiction forces...operating in Mexico" - oh yeah, right after monkeys fly out of harrowup's a##.

Geez, you guys crack me up.

Then why dont you support a secured border where very few if any illegals would be able to get through?

Czar: ...preservation of American culture, language and customs,

harrowup: You do realize that your statement, repeated so often singles you out as a bigot and racist.

Czar said "American culture, language and customs". Since when is "American" considered a race? Many Latinos, Blacks, and Asians are Americans and they too are part of, and add to, "American culture, language and customs". You seem to just be looking for an excuse to whip out your Race Card.

What do you mean by a "secured border". Describe how you would secure the border. Which border needs to be secured most?

Thanks for posting the words of Harrowup at your reply 234. It is certainly very telling, that such an ultra-liberal disruptor is allowed to continue his flame-inciting on Free Republic.

You, of course, have answered your own rhetoric.

The Houston Chronicle is hinting in its editorial that it does not wish to see a repeat of the MMP dog and pony show experiment tested in Texas. I agree.

"It is certainly very telling, that such an ultra-liberal disruptor is allowed to continue his flame-inciting on Free Republic."

When it occurs once or twice, its merely interesting, when it continues for months on end, then yes, it becomes very telling.

I don't know if you saw it, but last night harrowup and ClintonBeGone took it to new heights by actually libeling the respected poster, Marine Inspector, falsely accusing him of committing a crime, and yet that contemptible conduct garnered not even a time out, much less the banning that it deserved.

Something is very wrong here and its beginning to attract the attention of others on the web.

As an admitted ACLU democrat with a disruptor agenda, harrowup has completely destroyed whatever shred of credibility he previously had. Now his credibility is zero.

My previously posted message to harrowup and his cohorts is worth repeating: "Let me be clear. If you are not strong on national sovereignty, closely controlled/protected borders, preservation of American culture, language and customs, then I have no use for you. None.

That's as clear as I can make it.

"But note that the CAL-9 stand shoulder-to-shoulder with their brother, this self-confessed ultra-leftist, troll and disruptor. Why hasn't harrowup been banned from Free Republic?

I have the same question. There isn't a single conservative among the hyena pack.

You boys can keep flaming and playing tag all afternoon if you so desire; I have to get back to a meeting, but most assuredly will be interested in anything you have to say regarding the Editorial from the Houston Chronicle which continues to be the subject of this topic in spite of your attempts to sidetrack the discussion.

Of course you would. 10 out of 10 seditious ACLU democrats would agree too. You run in interesting political circles and siding with a left wing rag does not help your cause.

By all means say "hi" to the boys at the ACLU (or is it the DNC?).

Sorry, that's incorrect. The thread topic changed forever, the moment you confessed to being an ultra-leftist, troll and disruptor. Your revelations will haunt you for as long as you post here.

Harrowup in his own words...

"I have belonged to the ACLU for over 40 years..."   --harro wup

"I am also a Democrat..."   --harro wup

"I love beating up on Republicans and Libertarians and especially conservatives."   --harrowup

There is nothing else you can say that is more important than your admission that you have been a life-long member and apologist for the communist-front group, the ACLU, and an unrepentant liberal member of the Democrat Party (the party of treason), and your confession to being a troll and disruptor.

Just what youd think it means. It would be secured that very few if any illegals could get through. How is not in my area of expertise. Most illegals and (as far as I know) most drug traffic come from the southern border but both would have to be secured or the drug smuggling would simply move to the northern border.

The only constructive thing that can be said of harrowup is that at least he is honest about his affiliation with subversive left wing outfits like the ACLU, which is more than can be said of the other 7-8 "Freepers Of Questionable National Allegiance" that refuse to disclose their seditious left wing associations.

But yes, their comments do speak volumes about their loyalty to this country.

I don't know if I'd give him too much credit for that honesty since he's been trolling and disrupting the forum for over 7 years, and this is the first such admission that I've seen him post.

A secure border is one in which LAW-BREAKERS are foiled in their efforts to commit crimes against this Nation, including the crime of entering our Country ILLEGALLY. How do you do it? You commit whatever manpower is necessary to stop this foreign invasion, then you start going after the unscrupulous employers who take advantage of these ILLEGAL folks!! When the jobs and the Federal hand-outs dry up, so will the flood of ILLEGALS!!

The Minutemen ROCK...MUD
