Minuteman Project to issue major planning statement - Organizers reviewing project's future, direction
April 17, 2005 (Tombstone, AZ)---On Monday, April 18, organizers of the Minuteman Project will be issuing a major statement on the immediate and long-term direction of the project.
Rumors have been circulating that the project might cut short its originally planned month-long monitoring of a 23 mile section of the Arizona-Mexican border by citizen volunteers. The project's cofounders, Chris Simcox and Jim Gilchrist, said it would be a mistake to think the border will be abandoned. "However, our overwhelming early successes along with more recent developments have caused us to review how best to direct the project the rest of the month and beyond, " Simcox said.
The project has generated national-indeed, worldwide-attention and controversy. President Bush alluded to the project's volunteers as "vigilantes." Congressman Tom Tancredo (R-CO), Chairman of the Congressional Immigration Reform Caucus and an outspoken critic of the president's immigration policies, said the volunteers were "heroes in my book." Tancredo has invited the leaders of the project to travel to Washington DC and report on the project to the members of his caucus.
Project organizers said they have been deluged with messages of support along with requests from citizens of the other border states to organize similar Projects in those states. Gilchrist said all issues would be addressed on Monday. The statement will be issued at 12:30pm in Tombstone from the office of the Tombstone Tumbleweed newspaper, 312 Toughnut Street.

"Malvo was from Jamaica I believe. He came across the Arizona border with Mexico?"
Malvo and his mother were both illegals. You are the one who was asking for examples.
Read then comprehend then comment. You'll do better.
There are numerous different immigration reform bills in Congress. These bills range from the far left to the far right. I am reasonably well informed on all of them.
I have made an informed decision on which bill I support and alternatives I would accept.
I also know that the bill that I am opposed to is the bill that will likely pass.
"Read then comprehend then comment. You'll do better."
Kind of hard through the fog of a liberal ACLU lawyer like you.
All you can do is slander someone who does not think like you do with ad-hominem and strawman attacks.
WTF is your issue, Mr Lawyer.
Give it up.
Mirror mirror.
You cannot win the argument after the Kool-Aid has been imbibed.
"A complete and utter waste of time. No one has shown up to do the dirty and all Slimpox and Gilfish have to show for it is a bunch of made up threats and constant revisions of how many souls have arrived to take back America.
Give it up."
Again back to the ad-hominem attacks.
Mr ACLU; if you are so concerned about us racist hicks;
why doncha come down to the border and join your dope-smoking "observer" friends; and protect the "harmless migrants" from the mean Minutemen.
See...I told you not to invite them, they're rude, they're obnoxious and they never clean up the place when they leave. I'm going to bed, you deal with them! ;-)
Cheap sunday afternoon entertainment.
Then if you feel you are doing the right thing, go with it. I can't agree but I assume you are an American and you have the right to your (wrong) opinion. ;-)
Mazeltov ;-)
Well, you are a fresh voice and I like your screen name...which is why I haven't even once butchered it...
Enough from me. I'm right. You're wrong.

Read this before you draft your ACLU/MeCHA news release on the Minutemen.
You are clueless.
More AZ Immigrants. Read the last paragraph.
