Phone call received a short time ago from the caravan.
HIGHLIGHTS:
--- the Minuteman caravan, led by the Spirit of Allegiance car driven by Lyman Stucky (FReeper Spirit of Allegiance), began with speeches in Leimart Park in Los Angeles
--- a couple hundred patriots heard speeches by Jim Gilchrist and a stirring call to action from homeless activist Ted Hayes...Hayes predicts more participation by fellow blacks in this vital and patriotic crusade by joining his Crispus Attucks Brigade (he was a black man who became the first casualty of the American Revolution in the Boston Massacre)
--- the Spirit of Allegiance car was joined by several RVs, other automobiles, and a couple patriotic Harleys
--- there was excellent media presence with about 20 cameras in the park
--- about 15 anti-Minutemen were there being typically rude and harsh
--- they are about an hour outside of Indio, CA, and they will stay for about half an hour
--- tonight they stop for a rally in Phoenix

Lyman is hoping to receive some pledges at the stops along the way to keep it going. His Spirit of Allegiance pace car gets about 12-14 mpg and runs best on premium.

I'll try to find out or maybe someone can get it from the Minuteman sight.

I would like to know if JimRob is actually participating in this caravan or was his pic in the car photo shopped?
To: isthisnickcool
Actually I have much less of a problem with the National Anthem being sung in a language other than English, than I do the word change.
My purely American daughters sing the National Anthem in Polish followed by English sometimes in their Polish dance class. It's the intent. Some of the kiddies are trying to polish their English skills. This really does help.

I appreciate it. I tried to get it from the Minuteman site myself, but it required giving my phone number, which I choose not to do right now.

That's one sweet-looking ride!!!
I'd love to see the US flag balloon meet the Minutemen caravan at some point....or at least some of their 4-wheeled patriotic fleet. What a sight that would be!

Sorry, but because of your previous comments to me, you are one of only a handful of FReepers with whom I do care to dialogue. Have a nice day anyway if you like.

Wave as you pass through Tijeras! :)
To: doug from upland
Pardon my ignorance (I haven't been visiting FR much in the last couple of months), but what's the purpose in doing this?
To: doug from upland; All
Hopefully we'll get a system for some donations up to help them along the way for gas, etc.
GO MINUTEMEN GO!!!

This is to dramatize the illegal invasion problem and to demand in DC that those elected officials who swore an allegiance to this country uphold the oath and solve this problem.
