U.S. tipping Mexico to Minuteman patrols (telling the Mexican government)
Daily Bulletin ^ | 5/9/2006 | Sara A Carter

Posted on 05/09/2006 6:21:25 AM PDT by IrishMike

While Minuteman civilian patrols are keeping an eye out for illegal border crossers, the U.S. Border Patrol is keeping an eye out for Minutemen -- and telling the Mexican government where they are. According to three documents on the Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations Web site, the U.S. Border Patrol is to notify the Mexican government as to the location of Minutemen and other civilian border patrol groups when they participate in apprehending illegal immigrants -- and if and when violence is used against border crossers.

A U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesman confirmed the notification process, describing it as a standard procedure meant to reassure the Mexican government that migrants' rights are being observed.

"It's not a secret where the Minuteman volunteers are going to be," Mario Martinez said Monday.

"This ... simply makes two basic statements -- that we will not allow any lawlessness of any type, and that if an alien is encountered by a Minuteman or arrested by the Minuteman, then we will allow that government to interview the person."

Minuteman members were not so sanguine about the arrangement, however, saying that reporting their location to Mexican officials nullifies their effectiveness along the border and could endanger their lives.

"Now we know why it seemed like Mexican officials knew where we were all the time," said Chris Simcox, founder of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps. "It's unbelievable that our own government agency is sending intelligence to another country. They are sending intelligence to a nation where corruption runs rampant, and that could be getting into the hands of criminal cartels.

"They just basically endangered the lives of American people."

All the distortions about the Minuteman (or Minuteklan, as they like to call them) you ever wanted to know.
You need to know what the opposition is saying!!

SPLC ARTICLE EXPOSES THE HELL OUT OF THE MINUTEKLAN
Written by Administrator
Friday, 21 April 2006
Okay, now this crap with the Minuteklan hanging out with Nazis has come to the point where things have to be done about them and their supporters. The Southern Poverty Law Center has done some serious work in recent days that expose the hell out of the Miunuteklan Project. First article is important if you are concerned about any violence coming from them. The SPLC scored an email written by one of Minuteklan co-founder Chris Simcox's contemporaries calling for violence against undocumented workers. If that was all it said that would have been enough, but it gets better. Lawless sent the email to the National Socialist Movement's Mark "the Cherokee" Martin (pictured). Martin is a loon beyond all levels of imagination, so suggesting that he engages in violence should cause people to wonder how they can put this chump down before anything happens. The second article is just as sick. Once again despite the assurances by the founders Simcox and Gilchrist as well as their media groupies Lou Dobbs and Sean Hannity that there are no racists among them, there is MORE evidence that is not the case. This time we are talking Nazis working on Gilchrist's campaign for congress last year. He lost of course, but now that's not enough. We want a pound of minuteklan flesh.

IT'S TIME FOR A REVOLUTION!!!!!!!!!!!

The problem is that most folks go to the polls and EITHER vote democrat or republican. BOTH of these parties are basically the same anymore. It's called CORRUPTION! Voters truly need to REVOLT, and support a viable 3rd party candidate. I'll vote Constitution Party this time.

I share your frustration but no on needs to tell you that with Hillary peaking at 45-46% to go third party plays directly into her hands. So if you want to elect Hillary be my guest. But then don't complain.

Maybe with a dem in the WH, the GOP in congress might start acting like conservatives.

"Pres Bush is wobbly on illegal "immigration"."

No he's not, not at all, in fact he has been couragios on immigration. He is following the NWO plan to integrate the USA, Mexico and Canada into a North American economic zone. Screw the people, screw the Constitution. What the ruling class what the ruling class get. Welcome to serfdom. Think you are not a serf? Try keeping your money/property without paying tribute, try opposing your Rulers in any meaningful way.

"I don't think Rush takes suggestions from the little people."

Actually, he does. That's why Rush is Rush.

I'm afraid before too long taking up arms is going to be the only option available to us.

What we have to do is make sure the military is with us. I don't have a clue how to go about that, but raising my lousy little popgun to the machine isn't going to do anything but get me dead.

Let me understand this....Hilda Beast is elected president because conservatives turned to a third party when the GOP failed to uphold its constitutional duties to protect our borders and and the fault is with conservatives and not the quislings who failed America.

The country can survive a little socialism

At first, this seemed a bit extreme, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized it is right. The reason being is because we've already survived one hell of a lot of socialism.

Hmmm...I didn't notice that it was a different story. You may want to FReepMail the mods if it really was entirely different. I thought they were both the same story by "Sara A. Carter."

It's mainly just to keep the clutter down. Although, they seem to be especially vigilant on immigration topics lately. It is nice, though, to keep all the comments on the same thread when possible.

Nethercott is in prison, having forfeited his ranch for pistol whipping a couple of illegals. Don't use Nethercott as an expert witness, he's the whacko.

But then don't complain. We truly are between a rock and a hard place. But having said that, it does not pay to elect the socialist/commie candidate for the other side.

Well then Bush and many in congress need to get to the far right of Hillary on issues rather than tip toe to the left of her. If they don't she will win just as her husband by running right of the GOP.

She is an immigrant herself (legal) but she still gets called a Filipino whore when she speaks up against illegal immigration.



Sadly, she is called things like that by supposedly conservative Republicans.

Actually, he does. That's why Rush is Rush.

He has been sort of a party cheerleader for the last few years. He used to be a conservative first and republican second but now he seems to equate conservatism to whatever the Bush administration official policy is.

I haven't had a chance to listen in the last few weeks, but he has had the habit of originally pointing out when the GOP strays from conservative ideology, but then backtracking a day or two later by trying to point out that it is really just brilliant stratergy and stealing an issue from the democrats.

I checked his website just now and from a quick look at the front page it seems like he is still in party cheerleader mode. That kind of thinking is going to get the GOP killed in November.
