"This ... simply makes two basic statements -- that we will not allow any lawlessness of any type

I would find this statement laughable if I didn't live on the border. I wonder if it occurred to this man if there were no "lawlessness" on the border the Minutemen would not be there to begin with. It's too bad they can't keep track of illegals and smugglers as well as they keep track of the Minutemen.

Telling the Mexican government where the Minutemen are is outrageous. The Mexican Government just makes sure smugglers and illegals take other routes so as not to be caught. Our government is doing their "casing the area" for them. How thoughtful.

This is very dangerous for the Minutemen, smugglers are not nice people, and the Minutemen are making it tougher on them. People interfering with smuggling have been known to come up missing, or dead.

It comes into play if the Minutemen make any arrests--and it's a long-standing requirement of international law.
