"Your telling this to us why aren't you telling it to the illegals ?"

The answer to this question would be because I do not consort with illegals. When they come onto my property I call the Border Patrol, and take up a rifle. I do not confront them, unless I am forced to. I trust the Border Patrol and the Local Law Enforcement because I know they have been trained to work in this area. It is THEIR job to put their lives in harm's way for our country. The Minuteman group being in the area only means that they will be tying up valuable efforts and time of the Law Enforcement in our area. If a resident should need to call for help on our properties, there may not be an agent available because they are having to keep the Minutemen entertained and out of dangerous situations. How do the Minutemen know that the people who are signing up do not have drug smuggling motives or ideas about being able to help some of their terrorist friends into our country, (by distracting the Border Patrol agents)?

I will give you the bottom line, I have not seen any Homeland Security dossiers on any of the Minutemen, there is no such requirement mentioned on their web page. I do not know the 400 plus armed strangers who are threatening to come to my home in April. They are just recruiting whatever jumps up to say, "I wanna be good 'Mericans!"

Do you think that when Mohammad Atta filled in his request for a visa, that he listed the purpose of his visit as: "murdering as many infidels as possible"? I would be willing to bet that he did not mention that he was a terrorist, and how do we know that there are not some terrorist embedded in the Minuteman Project? I am certainly going to begin a petition to our elected officials to raise the security level on our border in April, and have The National Guard available if they should be needed.

Now another faction is weighing in on the presence of the Minutemen, and it puts my home in the line of fire. If the Minutemen cared about the residents out here, they would allow the Border Patrol and other qualified legal agencies to do their jobs without causing even more dissent on the Mexican side of the border.

I think it's a shame that the Minutemen will not direct their efforts into a trip to Washington DC or something else that would be appreciated, and helpful. I KNOW that one of the people mentioned on their web site has been CONVICTED of a firearms violation on FEDERAL land. How many more of the Minutemen are criminals, murderers, terrorists? Thanks but, no thanks.

The presence of the Minutemen in Cochise County is NOT welcomed by the majority of the citizens, I have a home in the area, my land is posted, and if any of you accidentally wander onto my land I will have you put into Cochise County Jail, now could I make my intentions any clearer? Do not come here for water, the phone or any other reason. I am friendly with Law Enforcement but not with any groups of armed vigilantes who try to usurp the power of the US Gov in my home county. I use a similar policy for all intruders (legal or illegal and I sure do not believe that all of the Minutemen are legal either, they may not be citizens due to Felony Convictions (like one of their Organizers from California who lied to Law Enforcement agents about a weapon he was secreting on Federal land). If the Border Patrol welcomes them, I will have to tolerate them but until they do, I will treat them as if they are an unknown illegals if they trespass on MY land in this desert.

I do, and I intend to continue to defend my property and myself. I will use whatever force is necessary to do so. (Alas Minutemen, I will not be looking for the white of your skin) when I decide whether you are a legal or an illegal invader on my property. NONE of you are welcome. The only exceptions would be if you are the Sheriff's Dept, The FBI, The BAG or Border Patrol Agents. When I know they are coming I will make them a pot of coffee or a tall cool glass of purified water. There are no such considerations for other uninvited legal or illegals

This is MY home you are talking about, sorry if I may seem hostile about a group that is increasing the danger near my home. If The Minutemen's Project endangers our homes, or the quality of our lives and properties or livestock, WE have the right (no, WE have the duty) to respond in a ways that you probably have not even considered, but we have.

I'm sure most of them are. And they are looking to invade your personal property, so you can have the pleasure of getting them locked up.

Not that many criminals, murderers and terrorists get involved in law enforcement...except in Arizona perhaps.

Bottom line is Real "Mericans" as you call them are the ones who are gonna show up to defend our borders and while they are gone on their respected selfless mission to defend our country the illegals back around where these folks live are gonna still be here because law enforcment can't or won't do its job and arrest them and deport them as they should be why don't you invite these "Mericans" to your home find out what kind of people from all over America want to defend our borders instead of making them sound like their a bunch of hicks crawled out from caves.

Ive never seen a theif defend anything but what and how they stole something ive never seen derilects and scum defend anything but what they selfishly grab for themselves.

You maybe have a chance to see some of the real America in the eyes of those who prefer to defend it instead of just watch the invasion

I know one thing i would go if i could afford it and i could do it unarmed too ! you dont need to be armed to spot intruders i cant see just sleeping and letting them creep in its not in my nature to give the enemy the upper hand and the illegals are making and proving themselves enemys every day they break the law !
