I'll keep updating my first post on this subject with reader feedback. Meantime, the Minutemen Blog has details not reported by the Daily Bulletin:
Sara Carter, a reporter with the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, reports today that she found documentation on Mexican government websites that show higher ups in the United States Border Patrol have been tipping off the corrupt Mexican government as to the locations of the Minutemen along the border.This article does not report information told to the MCDC media offices that the Border Patrol chiefs have also been passing along intelligence reports to the government of Mexico on the activities of Minutemen not only at the borders, but in locations such as Utah, Nevada, Illinois, Massachusetts and Tennessee. Perhaps a follow-up story is coming tomorrow or an over zealous editor took the info out?
Part of a report distributed last August to the Mexican government from Border Patrol bureaucrats read over the phone to the MCDC media offices contained not only numbers (estimated chapter membership) of Minutemen in Illinois, but a statement on their activities and that they didn't seem to know any politicians there, indicating that the Illinois Minutemen didn't yet have any political clout.
That is not a report on the location of Minutemen at the border, but political intelligence from our government to a foreign nation about the activities of American citizens petitioning our own government for redress of grievances.
The Minuteman Civil Defense Corps media offices will contact the reporter to inquire about copies of the documents and the timing on a follow-up story with the reports to the Mexican government of activities of Minutemen in INTERIOR states, as if reports of our locations in the border states weren't bad enough.
If the ACLU weren't so busy demonizing the Minutemen, you would think they might be on the side of law-abiding Americans being surveilled by their government. Where are the privocrats now?
Then why did you quote my post about Jim Robinson? What about that post leads you to believe I am a criminal?
Oh, O.K. then, I'm not a criminal - are you?
Sorry you feel that way.
and series.
I do. It is none of Mexico or any other country's business what I do or where I do it as long as I am not in their country doing it.
Mexico needs to mind it's own business and stay out of ours.
Good for you - better start getting all those Web cams and everything else that records "what you do or where you do it" shut down too - there's nothing on these Mexican Web pages that is not available to them already through PUBLIC records.
P.S. Better take down your New Mexico flag and other personal info from your forum profile too.
As someone new to this story, what is the "MCDC media?"
I will decide what to do about my info, thank you very much, the point is the US government has NO right giving any info about me to the Mexican government.
You should tell your ACLU handlers that they really should be looking into this, this seems like something they need to investigate.
Just hope protesting is all they do.
Doing more jobs Americans won't do, I'm guessing.

It's easier to sleep through this you know.

You have to be quite naive to believe a Mexican website.
Mm...mm...mm mm...mm.
Thanks for the ping. Thanks for the information. BTTT
"Make sure you are not talking about "treason" or "impeachment" guys."
What exactly is that suppose to mean? I've not been here very long but I am amazed at the blatant and growing contempt being shown by some FR's directed straight at those who disagree with them.
Sorry, Kim GG - that is straight from the top - FR has been banning those who call for Bush's impeachment - I don't think I've ever see you do that.
No, I haven't called for his impeachment. But I have stated grave concern that a consequence of his being on the wrong side of the illegal immigration issue, especially if the information in this article is true, will be a loss of the majority in November and a subsequent call for impeachment by Democrats, which will further snowball into forcing our troops to surrender in Iraq and an end to fighting the war on terror and a Democratic President in '08. All of which could be avoided had he NOT taken a leftist position on this issue.
However, my disappointment in Bush is only made worse by watching a few FR's behave with contempt, sometimes 'personally' towards those who do NOT take Bush's postion. I've never read anywhere that references that particular rule for banning, nor do I understand the reason behind it, but if it's true, I appreciate the heads up and was hoping it wasn't just your way of threatening to tattle on those who disagree :-)
