Neighborhood Watch on the Border
What do my fellow politically-aware i-club homies think of the Minuteman Project assisting the Border Patrol in doing their job?
Good idea?
Right Wing Extremism?

Hahaha.....My prediction is this program won't last long. It will only take one over-zealous "minuteman" and they will pull the plug.....

It will not last lond because those morons will get sick of sitting out in the desert for long periods of time.
I can't believe this garbage, do they realize that there are produce farmers who will loose a third of thier crops this year because they do not have the hands to harvest them? Do these morons think that American workers are going to pick lettuce for two bucks an hour?
Just wait until the produce prices go thru the roof and see what these out of work "Minutemen" say.

I'd gladly pay $4 for a head of lettuce to have poor, welfare-receiving Americans pick it.

Before you start calling people un-educated you should examine what you say first.
Un-employment of US citzens would go down. We would have a shot at healthcare for every american and our border would be more secure.
That's a horrible situation.

We don't pay health care for those coming over to work because, unless one of them gets hurt in an accident they don't go to the hospital for fear of being caught.
Again; reports have shown that American workers would not take the jobs that the illegals do.
Healthcare has nothing to do with the workers coming over. Because, if they were given some kind of card and taxed then they would be working and paying into the system, unlike the tens of thousands of Americans who sit on their asses and use Medicaid and Medicare.

If this administration as well as apst ones had not failed to even address this issue. The citizens of the Southwest would not even feel a need to do this.
