"Our children can't get out into our yards," rancher and Texas Minuteman leader Bill Parmley told the group. "We're afraid. Something has to be done."

The politicians in Texas are shaking
IN THEIR BOOTS . . .
==========================================
There was no shortage of volunteers last night as the controversial Minuteman civilian border patrol organization gathered in this historic south Texas town to organize anti illegal immigrant activities in Texas. Many volunteers said illegal immigration needs to be stopped, and since the federal government is unable or unwilling to do it, then its up to civilians to step in and get it done.

Texas Minutemen BUMP.
Shame on President Bush and the other Beltway boys who are letting our country be invaded. And Senator John Cornyn is more than a day late and a dollar short.
It's clear who the good guys and the bad guys are here.

"I don't think that it is in the best interests of the country to have untrained people, who not withstanding their best of intentions, might find themselves involved in violent and unexpected situations along our border," Cornyn said Don't worry, Johnny Boy. The Texas Minutemen will be able to handle anything that comes their way.

"Che Lopez compared the volunteers at last night's rally to the Ku Klux Klan. "Just basically racially profiling people. Pulling them out of their cars. Intimidating them.""
Nothing like a little hyperbole to get your name into the paper.

Many volunteers complained that their lives have been 'turned upside down' by the surge in illegal immigration. They told of having illegals kicking down doors, damaging their property, and stealing livestock. Unfortunately, this is exactly what President Bush wants to happen in America. Because of his commitment for a one State with Canada and Mexico, he knows America must become destabilized socially, economically and politically. Once that happens the UN will step in and America as we have known it will cease to exist.

Where is President Bush anyway? Has he gone on vacation? Texans won't put up with this invasion much longer. Private property owners along the border should invite all the Minutemen they can get to stop this travesty. And we are all armed.

How many times will we have to take a stand in Goliad? Godspeed the Minute Men.

"A Minuteman action in Arizona in April had mixed results."
This reporter is obviously bias - the project in Arizona was a huuuuuuuuuge success. We need to build this organization - thanks to all the minutemen and women.

....he knows America must become destabilized socially Politicians who believe themselves (and their families) to be immune from this social destabilization are sadly mistaken. It's going to affect everyone.

"Just basically racially profiling people. Pulling them out of their cars. Intimidating them." Please show one instance where the Minutemen did anything more than report suspected illegal border crossers to the BP.
Oh, wait, you can't? Then why this allegation?
Oh, that's right, you're a liberal. You don't need no steenkin' facts.

I'm with Michelle Malkin. There isn't anything wrong with profiling in this situation.
It ain't blonde women sneaking across our borders.
This is just common sense, but common sense seems to be politically incorrect these days.

"

He could be a real hero if he would just own up to the problem.
Do we detect the same "kinder and gentler" trait that led to the downfall of Bush 41 in 1992?

I don't think that it is in the best interests of the country to have untrained people, who not withstanding their best of intentions, might find themselves involved in violent and unexpected situations along our border," Cornyn said,"Ummm, like the American citizens who live on the border???
Maybe some agency of the Government could be ramped up to handle this invasion. Like, maybe the Border Patrol or perhaps ICE??
Naw, we can't go there as that would be tantamount to protecting American sovereignty!!

Everyone is aware that most illegals don't cross at the border stations, they sneak across at unguarded crossings.
If we can't stop the illegal Mexican from sneaking across the border how can we stop a terrorists or people working for MS-13?

Yes, but some of us have other plans for our future.The reason Bush is promoting millions of illegals here is for their votes. It has nothing to do with providing them jobs. Bush is buying their loyalty by giving them free health care and a dozen other social programs. So when the time comes, illegals will be allowed to vote and they will chose what Bush and the one world leaders want them to chose.
We citizens who love America are in the way. There is nothing one can do against the power of the US government, even when the spineless Republicans are in control.
