Don't know about the wisdom of that. If I recall my 7th grade history, the Texans didn't fare too well at Goliad.

Most of the Texas land is privately owned, so Minutemen would need landowners' permission to be there.

This is not an insignificant matter. First of all, as a landowner you have to decide whether or not you want a bunch of guys you don't know camping on your land, but the bigger deal is how much you want to be sued for everything you have if something goes wrong. And the leftist organizations are praying for at least one incident to go wrong.

Might not be a tough decision if you've had legions of illegal invaders crossing your land for years. The leftist organizations will need to get permission too or be trespassers.

Criminal tresspass is serious matter in Texas. At night if you are acting as the agent for the owner, Texas properties almost become free fire zones.

Lethal force is justified for trespassing at night in Texas. It may not be that great an idea at times, but it is justified.

I doubt it's the first time, YCT. Do you want to be added to the South Texas/Mexico ping list?

Just for the record, it was not Chris Simcox who started the MinuteMan Project. It was Jim Gilchrist from Southern California and a member of California Coalition for Immigration Reform (C.C.I.R.) headed up by Barbara Coe. But they always give Chris the credit. I suppose it doesn't matter, but Jim owns the MinuteMan name.

Just a little trivia..........:-)
