these are not minute men nore should they be called minute men the true minute men were fighting for freedom against a king and his troops. i mean what real threat are the Mexicans posing to us none. i mean think about it all these people just want to do is work over here. but i do think they should at least try to become citizens of the us and i do think allot of them would if given the chance. and before u start saying well terrorist could come across the border that not true ether. in fact some did and it was the Mexicans that turned them in. and yes these men are armed very armed

The Minutemen and women have a background check done, to make sure they are not "racist", or have a criminal background! (Gee..that's MORE than i can say for la Ratza and some of the other RACIST mexican groups!!!)
A LOT of these volunteers are retired police officers and military men and women!!! Did you know THAT???? These are people who have devoted their lives to HELPING our citizens, and in their retirement years when they should be enjoying themselves, they are risking their LIVES in the heat and cold, to do a job that our government REFUSES to do!!!!
And, as for them carrying weapons, well, have you EVER been to the border???? You have NO idea how dangerous it can be!!!! I live in a border state, and i have relatives who work for Customs and friends who work for Border Patrol. I could tell you incidents that have happened at the border that would make you CRINGE in fear and OUTRAGE!!!!! These are incidents that the public NEVER hears about on the news, because they are NOT allowed to actually talk about these things!!!
We need many MORE groups like our PATRIOTIC Minutemen and women!!!!!
GO MINUTEMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.
The Minute Men and women are made up of doctors,lawyers,teachers,business owners,ranchers,blue and white collar workers,
Thet have members of all colors and races.Many members are Hispanic,
In Arizona it is LEGAL to carring a weapon.Most of us do.
You and chuckles know absolutly NOTHING truthful about the Minute Men.
LA RAZA UNIDA is far more a racists group than the Minute Men
Get some facts and truth in your life and stop this BS.
La Raza Unida members are the brown KKK.
March 27, 2006
"We have an aging white America ... They are dying ...We have got to eliminate the gringo, and what I mean by that is if the worst comes to the worst, we have got to kill him." Jose Angel Gutierrez, professor, University of Texas, Arlington and founder of the La Raza Unida political party
TRUTH AND FACTS NOT PRO ILLEGAL BS
You have made remarks that you have no facts to back up about the Minute Men.I provided you with proof of La Raza Unidas racists views..No the Minuurt Men arent racists and La Raza Unida is very racists.

1. Unlike employees in many professions, minute men have restrictions on their maximum educational attainment.
2. Members must use atrocious grammar. See any of Minute Woman's posts on Yahoo Answers for some fine examples. Her posts contain 3-4 errors per sentence.
3. They have to be socialists since they insist that the government artificially constrain labor from socially optimal levels and locations.
4. Finally, they must be lazy, incompetent, or genetically flawed. This renders them incapable of competing in a capitalistic economy and is the impetus for the third requirement.
