That's right Chris Simcox, Jim Gilchrist, and their patron Tom Tancredo are out-and-out racists. And those aiding or sympathizing with the Minutemen are abetting racism. Are you offended? Do you think I'm over-stating? Tough!
See what I mean below:
The Minutemen are sitting on their lawn chairs along the border in Arizona puffing their chests, carrying sidearms, and flailing their arms at "those damn illegals" again. Nothing more than harmless citizens protecting our border you say? Well take a look at who they bring out. While many so called volunteers are blinded by the bullshit "patriotism" mouthed by the Minutemen leadership, this is what they really stand
for:
"Build us that wall - now!" Goldwater said, referring to a measure that would add 700 miles of fences along the border. He promised that if elected, he would put illegal immigrants in a tent city on the border and use their labor to build the wall. Goldwater is a nephew of the late Sen. Barry Goldwater
I caution those who look at the Minutemen as harmless citizens seeking only to protect our borders. Watch who you support. Those of us living along the border are acutely aware of what the vigilantes mean -- militarization of the border, and the unleashing of vigilantes in our midst. These racist bigots are far from harmless, advocating the murder of immigrants and politicians who dare to get in their way.
But these are not mere words. We've witnessed these vigiliantes crack Latino heads open, and chase them with attack dogs. So if you are willing to be in league with the Minutemen, don't be surprised if their brand of justice includes Latino concentration camps, and forced labor at the barrel of a gun, and the gentle persuasion of an attack dog.
Ahh, but justice is so sweet. Just check out the link in my comment.
