What Minuteman volunteers have succeeded in doing is setting off false alarms by tripping ground sensors on the border, he said. "We're having to work around them instead of concentrating on the actual border where we need to work," Adame said.
Sounds like what we in the Marines used to call a major CHARLIE FOXTROT.

The Minutemen are even more effective than I had hoped. They're getting a better response than the federal government ever could.

Yep, just like the anti-Minuteman types predicted, a bunch of drunk White Supremacists are filling their Mexican illegal immigrant bag limits each and every day.
Wait a minute, that hasn't happened.
If anything, this has proven that the Mexican government could stop the flow of illegals if they so desired. A very interesting result, indeed.
But you're too busy trying to defame what the Minutemen are doing to notice.

Apparently the sensors aren't tripped by the thousands of illegals who pass every single day.

Perhaps. Maybe more disappointing (for you) is there really isn't a border problem and the numbers these MMK'ers claim are simply bogus.

It is a blot on this administration that they are not accomplishing this Constitutional task and the people HAVE to take matters into their own hands. Wake up to the will of the people pres.!

I don't think it's a CF, except for the politicians.
I think it is a publicity stunt -- that appears to be working.
The Mexican Gov. is smart. One dead old man volunteer = a cry to shut down the border.
(BTW, the Army called things a CF, too.)
To: ClintonBeGone
You were never a Marine.
Adame wasn't doing such a hot job "concentrating on the actual border" BEFORE the MMP showed up.

Darn shame that they won't be able to stay there full time.

Maybe there are not thousands that pass every day. There probably aren't even hundreds. Immigration is like global warming or population control - those with an agenda simply make up the numbers.

I've seen bad cases of fact allergies before, but that one was textbook.

Eager to avoid confrontations between volunteers and its people, Mexico is sweeping the area south of the Minuteman Project clear of migrants. And suggesting less fortified border-crossing locations, no doubt.

You are a sick individual.

Uh yeah sure, the illegals we see with our own eyes aren't real. That's the ticket.

I find it more than disappointing when US officials aren't on the side of America.

there's a front page article in the nyt today complaining that illegals pay into social security and don't get much back.
it's odd that the nyt hasn't noticed the hospitals in california that have gone broke due to illegals, or the collapse of the health care system elsewhere.

Sure. Someone on your side is going to have to make up some theory to keep the masses pumped up and contributing money to ALIPAC. It's not unlike the Maxine Water's rumor that the CIA spread crack through african-american neighborhoods. It makes good reading, but does anyone take it seriously?

Dude, you're from MICHIGAN!! Beside the canucks that come over to catch a Tiger's game, how many illegals do you see every day?
