He isn't a well-spoken man...he had to bring in Al Sharpton this weekend to try to keep the manufactured scandal against the LAPD SWAT team alive.

I tried listening to what Villaracista was saying, but he uses sentence fragments that don't make sense.

(This is the enemy's position, and marching orders, from their website.)

"We are not simply protesting any more. We are fighting for our lives. We cannot let racist vigilante groups organize in our communities. We will stop them.

"This is a call out to the people everywhere to come to Campo, California and bring energy, ideas and equipment to stop the MinuteMen. Some suggestions include:

- noise makers of any and every kind: bullhorns, pots and pans, boom boxes, cars with loud stereos, convertible lowriders, drums, air horns, cans with pennies in them, plastic bottles with rice in them, flutes, horns, anything that makes lots of noise. They can't hear migrants coming when there's music blasting in their faces.

- flashlights, headlights, head lamps, maglites, anything that creates a lot of light. Its going to be hard to use night vision goggles when you're sitting in a circle of artificial daylight in the middle of the night.

- video cameras: these racist vigilantes are armed. They brandish rifles, pistols and all sorts of weapons. when we interrupt their activities, they are bound to become angry. We cannot depend on the corporate media to guarantee our safety. The police have released MinuteMen volunteers from any charges even when their violent actions occur in broad daylight in front of many witnesses, such as in Garden Grove. We have to document every moment of our efforts.

- bandanas, glasses and goggles will help keep the desert dust out of your face and the police video cameras away too!

"Be creative! Huge banners, huge signs, huge puppets, anything to obstruct the vision of these racist migrant hunters is useful! Costumes, theatre, clowning anything to de-escalate the violent intentions of the MinuteMen is important! Road blockades can keep them from their meeting places! Bring the kids! Fun for the whole family! Bring 3 weiner dogs!

"Campo, California is just the beginning, with only a handful of MinuteMen volunteers who will be easily stopped. If their numbers are greater, we will be organizing people to go out to Campo throughout the week.

"September 16th will be the real focus of our efforts. We are working to mobilize people from around the country to come to San Diego to stop the larger MinuteMen operation taking place on Mexican Independence Day, Dia de La Patria. If you can't make it to Campo on in the next few days, make plans to come to San Diego on September 16th and take part in a major mobilization to challenge not only Capitalism and the racism it depends on, but Empire and the borders it uses to control the movement of people!"
