"The group of about 125 broke through a police barrier across the street and pushed and shoved members of Gilchrist's entourage, including his wife, before police intervened."

misskate1... The other story was all about hear say, and had no proof behind it. Also it mention the whole incodent was being fueld by La Raza, and they can not be trusted.

Unfortunately, they don't have a mandate to shoot these loathsome criminals.......YET!!!
Actually, the only attacks and/or acts of violence have come
from LA RAZA types, and other racists in favor of the illegals.
Go figure!?

No. I've met many members of the MinuteMen and they all seem to be honest, good men who actually go out of their way to protect people, especially in terms of preventing the deaths of illegal aliens crossing the border. Most of the violence is concentrated to conflicts that arise between local law enforcement and illegal drug traffickers attempting to illegally cross the border.

No, I have not heard or seen any violence by the Minute Men(FACT). The Minute Men are the best and are great people.
I do know that violent extremists from Columbia University used force to get their lib thoughts out and with violence restricted the Freedom of Speech of the Minute Men. So, violence comes only from the Pro Illegal side, whiners that they are.

we follow the minutemen and the pro illegal aliens attack them a lot!
the minutemen are peaceful and only are trying to voice their opinion on illegal immigration. as they have a right to do!
i have seen and read many time the illegals have attack them, what are they suppose to do just stand there and get hit?
the police don't even protect them.

No, I must say that while I dont especially agree with the Minute Men (as is my right) or their tactics, I have yet to see anything written stating that theyve used violence to prove a point.

Do you think that all blacks lynched by the KKK are recorded and found? Minute-men are nothing more than Klan's men and supported by Noe-Nazi. YOU SHOULD KNOW!!!!!

There is no truth to the false claims.Its just hate rhetoric from the radical groups like La Raza.There are not racists as they have members that are all colors and races.They are not a violent hate group that is an out and out lie.Read their pledge and then you tell me.
The Minuteman Pledge
A Minuteman upholds the Constitution of the United States of America, and reveres the American Creed that unites us as one people, our Declaration of Independence.
A Minuteman knows well America is a nation of immigrants, and realization of our national promise has always relied upon those who come to America from other countries to participate fully, with their children and descendants, as loyal and law-abiding U.S. citizens.
A Minuteman believes that just as ethnicity, race, religion and all such factors are incidental and do not affect our God-given, constitutional equality as American citizens, such factors are also irrelevant in the debate over illegal immigration. There is no tolerance among Minutemen for racism or bigotry - E Pluribus Unum - Out of Many, One.
A Minuteman believes in a strong, safe and secure America that begins with borders open only to those who have a legal right to enter, and who have met all the lawful criteria to cross into our territory established by the sovereign American people.
Minutemen vow to use every legal means at our disposal to assist law enforcement authorities in identifying and apprehending those who violate our borders, whether they are illegally trafficking people, weapons, arms, property, sexual slaves or any other contraband.
Minutemen vow to report to the proper authorities any business entity which knowingly recruits, facilitates or employs people who have entered America illegally, or which cooperates in any commercial activity which involves contraband smuggling or marketing of persons, products or material.
Minutemen promise to raise our voices -- on cellular phones along the borders of America and in the halls of Congress -- in the defense of the rule of law. The American people are firm but fair, and we share their great compassion for the many powerless victims of cruel, illegal human trafficking and labor exploitation. But we also support our citizens' adamant rejection of the blatant disregard for our laws and ordered liberty represented by the U.S. government's failure to secure our borders, enforce our nation's sovereignty and end the flood of illegal trafficking into American territory.
I vow before God and my fellow Americans that these principles guide my actions as a Minuteman. "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty..." And so I will stand watch on America's borders and in her sovereign interest until relieved from duty by my fellow countrymen.
