What is it about the Minutemen that has people so riled up?? I mean seriously they are private citizens doing their own thing on their own time. Why are people so against them protecting the border? As long as they aren't harming you what difference does it make?? Serious answers please.....I already know half of you think they are racist, but I want to know WHY IT BOTHERS YOU THAT THEY ARE PROTECTING THE BORDER??
And before you lay into me, it has been proven that the Minutemen has helped reduce drug trafficking.

Did you hear about the starving Illegals?

Do you know that not one hospital has a report on this. Not a one. Not even severe malnutrition. Not one.

Not one Cop reports that Illegals were force to come here , Not one.

Do you think it was really survival or just I want more ? And where and when do we draw the line?

What would you do? (Goes along with Rand213's question about stealing)?

For those of you saying use birth control.

Imagine you and your spouse both have good paying jobs. As good as you can possibly get in your class level in a very corrupt government. You have 2-3 children and then one or both of you lose your jobs and are unable to find work paying as well as your last job. You are about to be homeless and what little food you have goes to the children.

If you think crossing the border illegally to find a job that will provide for your starving family is wrong, what would you do?

And would you honestly tell somebody they should have used birth control because they lived in a poor country?

If you would, you seriously need to be dropped in the middle of a third world country and try to survive.

Why the government label people as being poor?

Working class & middle class pay the majority of the taxes, and the big companies & rich people get all the damn breaks. If each state government take their foot off poor people necks, then they can prosper. Control that's what it's all about.

Have you seen the pictures of the work the Israeli terrorists are putting in?

Horrific pictures I tell you. A war death is just a stat unless you actually see the death at the rawest state. Quite inhuman for both these scum like groups to start a conflict like this.
Youre a freaking terrorist when you cross the line and start randomly bombing children and residential areas.?

How stupid is stupid?

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A prison inmate pleaded guilty on Tuesday to sending letters to the FBI and secret service that included bomb and anthrax threats -- as well as his full name and inmate number.

Donald Ray Bilby, 30, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Trenton to one count of false information and hoaxes after he sent five letters demanding authorities deposit $20,000 in his county jail inmate account because he needed money for bail, the U.S. Attorney's Office said.

"I think it's fair to say we were not dealing with a great criminal mind here," U.S. Attorney Christopher Christie said in a statement.

Bilby signed all the letters using his full name and inserted his inmate number beneath his signature. One letter to the FBI included demands for money, a piece of paper labeled "anthrax" and a white powdery substance that turned out to be harmless.

He faces a maximum of five years in prison after first serving a sentence for automobile theft.

Why do Republicans like Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter make up statements, then claim liberals have made them?

did you hear Sean Hannity say 'THANK GOD YOUR SON IS DEAD" , then blame the statement on a Liberal?

Ann Coulter said "Islamic terrorists don't hate Americans like Liberals do", aren't these two, and others like them on the radio and other TV stations, the real problem with the U.S.A.?

Do Liberals actually believe just up and pulling out of Irac is a good idea?

I see this all of the time on here. Do these fools not understand the serious repercussion's of just pulling out? Are they THAT blind that they cant see pulling out would make it a terrorist haven that would put the whole world in danger? And i dont want to hear about a time table either,..how the hell can you have a time table for a war?

It's one thing to hate the idea of being there, or to even hate Bush for being there, but the fact is we are there .., and to think simply pulling out would end all of our problems is sheer ignorance , when in fact it would danger ALL of us.

Would you break the law to feed your starving children?

Breaking the law is no good thing, everyone knows. but if my children asked me for food, and i didnt have money or the nike sweatshop wouldnt hire me, i would hop the fence and cross the border 2 no questions asked, and i would get deported, SO I WOULD DO IT AGAIN FOR MY KIDS.

WHERE IS THE MALICIOUSNESS, WHERE IS THE WICKENESS IN MY ACTIONS, should i be treated like a plague for trying to feed my children.
