If you haven't heard about it check it out at\nwww.illegalimmigrant\nprotest.com/other_protests.htm\n\nI'm going to try to go with them when they come through here, but will definitely be helping with the potluck meals while they're here.  Just wondering who else was going to.\n\nAnd before anyone says anything about the Minutemen being racist, THEY AREN'T!  They actually have a very rigorous screening procedure that volunteers are put through to insure that they have ABSOLUTELY NO affiliation with ANY racial hate group before they are allowed to go to the borders or even allowed to join the Minutemen.  So if you still think they're racist you apparently don't have your facts straight or don't know the actual meaning of the word which you can find in any ENGLISH dictionary.

Oh, I wish I was healthy enough to go help, I can't walk far at all, and I refuse to begin using a wheel chair yet. People that can please go. I sent money last week. I hope I can send more. Thank-yo for your dedication. They are doing it the right, honest way to keep terrorists out.

FANTASTIC POST!\n\nI have heard of it and found it online after attending the May I, Illegal Rally.  The illegals were chanting AZTLAN for about five minutes and, after discovering what THAT meant, we continued to research and to our horror, realized that this is a MEXICAN INVASION!\n\nTherefore, no amnesty for anyone.

why is your avatar brown? do u know the same proponents for these immigrant acts could turn on you by revoking your citizenship if you're 1st generation American. They are proposing that if your parents are illegal and you are born here, that you be illegal as well. It doesn't matter that you grew up here or speak perfect English and this is the only culture you know. I am not for less or more border protection, I am against non-sensical immigration laws that call it a felony if I help an immigrant by giving them food, water or a place to rest their head. What about the church helping these people? What about doctors for that matter? Racist legislators want to call it aiding and abetting a felon. Yes, make no mistake about it, it's pure unadulterated racism.

THEY (legal and non legal immigrants) threw out the race card first.  Notice they are all for breaking the law?  They want a free ticket in to this country, expect to be handed jobs and  health benefits (free, I might add) automatically, and so far our government has obliged them.  It doesn't look like our goverment is really against illegal immigration.  It's a lie and a sad thing.  I am totally against illegal immigration.  If you want to come here that's great I'm not against that, just do it legally.

No, I am not becoming racist, and I think it is important that we think clearly in times like this.\n\nFirst, your anger isn't unwarranted.  The sight of people who have not followed the laws DEMANDING gifts is infuriating.  However, you need to be able to distinguish who it is you are angry with.  It isn't people of a certain race.  People of EVERY race are on all sides of this issue.  Instead, you are angry with people who have violated laws and are now blaming YOU.  \n\nIf you fall into racism, you've let them win.  The people leading the protests are seeking to divide the country.  If they can succeed, their little protest becomes much bigger.  The protest leaders are actually a very small number, and based upon their choice of dates for protesting, I would suspect they come from a socialist background.\n\nOnce you understand all the context, it's easy to figure out who you ought to be angry with.  It has nothing to do with race.

I LOVE IT!\n\nWTF. (if someone reports me, you're a dumbass, because this is an opinion, and im not threatening anyone.)\n\nMexicans come to United States. Steal our jobs, bring crime, and end up in our jails. 400 illegals were taken off the street in a recent operation. We pay for jails through taxes. Jails must board and feed immates, so that's our money. They also take our school districts for granite. We pay for schools. We pay for public health, which some take that away. Sure America maybe the "promise" land, but only for the legal aliens.\n\nIf your direction to this comment is about illegal aliens, than I strongly back it. If tis about legal aliens, I firmly disapprove of it.

The Minutemen ROCK!! They ae NOT vigilantes. They do not punish illegal intruders. They must call on the Border Patrol in order to get those people detained.  Join the CARAVAN!! Support the Minutemen!! They have the support of the USA!!!   vigilante-somebody who punishes lawbreakers personally and illegally rather than relying on the legal authorities  <<--MinuteMen don't punish the illegal immigrants, therefore, they are NOT vigilante. They ARE a "vigilance" operation.-->> vigilance=watchfulness,the condition of being watchful and alert, especially to danger.\n(The word is spelled 'v-i-g-i-l-"A"-n-c-e')

Anyone here a member of a union.  The jobs they do, these are not jobs that no americans will do, busboy, valet, waiter, etc.  Maybe Americans want to be paid more but hey, when you have a minimum wage, that's to be expected.  \n\nPersonally, I know a lot of international people.  I hear a lot about their problems getting into this country.  To me, illegal immigration is like cutting ahead of all these great people.  Is that fair, hells no, life in mexico isn't great, but the people in mexico can't complain about anything.  They no nothing about hard life.  If we should allow illegal immigration on the basis of them being refugees, then there are millions in Africa who we should bring in first.  There are two ways of doing it, don't let anyone in illegally, or let everyone in.  And I think we would know what happens if we just opened the floodgates.    \n\nIf the people protesting really wanted to be here, wouldn't they have an american flag, not a mexican one.  I'm really sick of the racial preservation.  You want to be proud to be mexican, go be proud in mexico, because if you want to say you're proud to be mexico and you're illegal, you're saying that you're proud you grew up from such filth that you couldn't help but leave(but you still love being from there).

It seems odd to me that the only ones demonstrating are the illegals.  Where is everyone else?  I have been writing and calling my represetnatives about this but it is curious why there are NO organized marches AGAINST illegals.\n\nCould it possibly be that the illegal immigrant marches are secretly organized by the Bush administration to give him ammunition for his idiotic Guest Worker program?  Hummm.

Why anyone wants and dreams to come to usa, for jubs? We have as much people who can't read nor write as any place. It is one big open-air campus of learning experience.\nFeel "free" to walk around the compound, watch out when the panhandlers get desperate. Stay away from the fascist pigs.

The one thing you are wrong about it was not organized by people who entered this country illegally. These illegals are not educated enough to put on an Easter hunt no less a mass protest. This is done by very organized advocates for a political power agenda. These people are the most anti American group in the country and dangerous.\nThey are gaining more power political. \nWe have let this issue get so far out of hand. No matter what happens tomorrow it is only the beginning.

You should be able to get a lot of answers to your questions here:\n\nThe Minuteman Project does not endorse or encourage violence; this includes aggressive demonstrations that create malicious behavior such as flag burning, rioting, or any physical contact of any kind. In this time of social turmoil many anti-American groups wish to cause harm to the name of the Minutemen, because they know that the Minutemen stand for peace and the Rule of Law. The Minutemen are a model of strength and personal control in a time of civil disobedience. The Minuteman Pledge declares our virtues while our Standard Operating Procedures (S.O.P.) declare our actions

Youre Exactly Right\nThats Why This Hairbrained Scheme Is POINTLESS\n\nThe ILLEGAL Camp Continues To Lay Claim That WERE All Racists - When In Fact This Entire "BOYCOTT/PROTEST" Has Been Organized By, And Will Consist Of RACISTS Attempting To STRONGARM Our Government Into Granting Amnesty To ILLEGAL Aliens In Our Country\n\nThe Only Result To Come From This Endorsement \nCondoning ANARCHY And The Breaking Of Our Laws\nWill Be Violence In The Streets\n\nPeople Will Get Hurt That Day For NO REASON

It's about time someone stand up for this huge, illegal immigration invasion that is going on.\nSure hope this is true. I have not heard this yet.\nI don't think anyone will be running scared yet. They will just migrate to another state.\nIt will take alot more of the states to get involved before anything, as minute can actually be noticed. Let's give it our best. Hat's off to you NC.

They are here already.Why would we even try to deport them all.Regardless of whether they broke the "law".That "law" has never been enforced.So why is eveyone screaming for the cops,all of a sudden.(here comes the sob story(They have lived here for years,decades.They have children that were born here.Most have been productive members of this society.They own homes and have no ties to their home countries.It is ridiculous and silly to say,"send them packin".\nNow not everyone had an opinion on this until the marches and the protesting.I would like to know why that pissed so many ppl off.They do have a right to do that.It is in our Constitution.Even if they are not citizens.\nLast.I am a citizen and I don't know where some ppl got their arrogance from.There is racism involved,and if you have ever experienced racism,you would know it doesn't feel good when someone hates you just because of you ethnicity.And it is even more fucked up when they think it's funny.Maybe I expect too much from my fellow? Americans.
