Where Is Evidence That Minutemen Are Helping Stop Illegal Immigration? Are They Phonies?

Question

How about an official statement from USBP or any law enforcement agency, citing specific cases in which info provided by Minutemen was of assistance? Names, dates, places where arrests of illegals were made, etc. WHERE'S THE BEEF, MINUTEMEN?

NO SELF-SERVING MINUTEMEN PROPAGANDA, PLEASE!!

You Minutemen claim that USBP is conspiring to make you look bad? The government is out to get you? Paranoia of that sort is one sign of methamphetamine abuse. . .

Answer 1

the minutemen are idiots.....

if they really want to stop the flow of illegal immigration.... they need to stop eating at fast food restaurants..... sleeping at hotels.... shopping at walmart.... buying fruits or vegetables.... and eating any sort of meats..... because all of these industries involve the exploitation of the undocumented worker by ALL americans!!!

Answer 2

The U.S. Government and Border Patrol will never release documents showing that the Minutemen have helped slow illegal immigration because it would prove the Minutemen were right. I mean seriously, I hear that Border Patrol is actually reporting the Minutemens locations over to the Mexican government. Also, a concerned BP agent turned over documents to the news media last year showing the Border Patrol high-ups were telling their agents not to report any numbers to the media that showed the Minutemen having an impact on illegal immigration. It's the same reason why illegal lovers don't want us to build a wall -- because the numbers will speak for themselves.

Answer 3

There was quite a bit in the way of statistics last year when they had a thousand people at the border. I saw some recently about the areas where the other Minuteman group (there are two) is building the fence, as well.

And then there is evidence that the Border Patrol was told to ease off in areas where the Minutemen were last year, so they wouldn't look effective: http://www.washtimes.com/national/20050513-122032-5055r.htm

Oh, your last comment about no propaganda is so funny! If someone gives you the evidence you asked for, it is propaganda!

Love it.

Hey, I didn't write the article buddy, and it is considered main stream press.

Answer 4

Because the MinuteMen have become so desperate for support they have associated themselves with too many racist organizations, and the Media stopped talking about them. I support the efforts that these men do to secure our border, and if you would like to know what they are doing go to MinuteMenHQ.com, their web site will tell you where they are, and what they have been working on. I do not approve of some of their support groups, and the MinuteMen say they are not racist, but they have tarnished their image through the association.
The media has also been told to not shine too much light on these rebels against the government, they don't want others encouraged to do the same.

Answer 5

Try listening to the NEWS!!! They talk about it quite a bit!! The Minutemen are a BIG help to the B.P.!! They said the ILLEGAL crossings drop a LOT in the areas the Minutemen are patrolling!!!

Answer 6

The USBP was told by thier supervisors not to say a word about the Minutemen - for everyone they report, it makes them look bad.

Too bad for you the American people are much more educated and aware to believe the lies your spreading about them.

Answer 7

The Minutemen are doing what they can because they love this country. Unlike democrats, who treat the USA like it's not even a sovereign country. (Pssst...Democrats are for total amnesty--They'll sell the country out at any price for a vote)

Answer 8

The minute men do not arrest people. They watch and report the illegals crossing. Now if the border patol does nothing, that is another story.

Answer 9

How many million illegals do we have in this country? 22-plus??
(and that's just an estimate).
How did this happen with border patrols on duty?
You do the math.

Answer 10

There is no objective evidence from any unbiased source. Certainly, Gilchrist and Simcox are both phony; I think most of their followers are just sheep.
