Eyewitness report from the Arizona/Mexico border from two Minuteman
volunteers

April 5, 2005 ... Witnessing with our own eyes what is going on at
the border has really been mind-boggling. Unless you see it for
yourself down here you would never believe it. The local media
reports some of what actually transpires on the border here but it
never reaches the interior of our country and the majority of our
citizens. In plain language we are being invaded, not by armies, but
by literally thousands of illegal aliens every single day of the
year. The Border Patrol doesn't even catch half of the people that
come across and they catch an unbelievable number of them. I've heard
the number 1 in 4 that come through. When they do catch them they
send them back into Mexico where they try again the next day. The BP
receive hundreds of calls daily from citizens reporting illegals
along the highway, in the border towns, private property, on
public property, at their homes asking for and in some cases
demanding food and water. I hear they don't have half the manpower
they need so a lot of calls go unanswered Of the hundreds arrested in
March in this area alone the newspaper reported 20% of them had
criminal records.
When OTM's (illegal aliens Other Than Mexicans) are caught they are
issued citations to appear in court just like we are issued traffic
citations and released. Very small percentages ever appear in court.
They disappear and go where they want to go and do what ever they
came into our country to do.

Is El Presidente Jorge Bush and his henchmen aware of all this? You
can bet the farm that they are. For what is Jorge Bush selling
America's soul?

We went out on border today and manned an observation post from noon
until 6PM. Pretty quiet today but we did observe numerous illegals
just laying around waiting for a chance to get across. On the wa
back to camp we observed a male Hispanic who appeared to be an
illegal (carrying a back pack and a gallon jug of water) walking
along the highway. Called the Border Patrol and reported the sighting
to them. They are all over this area but they don't stay here. They
pass through on the way to other destinations.

After we returned to the camp we spent 4 hours on security on the
main entrance. This is very stressful checking everyone and the
vehicles coming through but very necessary due to the daily death
threats we receive.

There are over 200 Minutemen manning observation posts working in
shifts 24 hours per day. At any time you can observe Mexicans laying
up just waiting for a chance to make the dash to cross over. Members
of the Grupo Beta, (Mexican refugee assistance group), Federales
(Mexican National Police) and Mexican soldiers continuously patrol
the border to direct those waiting to cross over to go around that
section of the borr Minutemen are observing. We have been very
successful in shutting down the influx of illegals in the areas where
we have been posted. That is why the drug cartels and the human
smugglers are so mad at us. We are costing them big bucks by closing
the border. We have proven it can be done. Are you listening El
Presidente Bush?????

Are these the poor peons that want to come here to do the jobs
Americans don't want to do? More like the criminals who come here to
compete with our own homegrown crooks.

You had better WAKE UP America. They are coming to your town. If you
can't believe they are a threat to our way of life, and our society
come to the Arizona border, talk to the locals and see for yourself.
Get involved. It is an eye opener.

In recent polls 80% of American want our borders secured. Are you
listening El Presidente?? Close the borders. Enforce our laws. Until
tomorrow!!!!!!!!

April 6, 2005 We took some personal time today to buy supplies and
wash clothes, etc. then spent 4 hours out on the line. Observed the
same things out there today. Mexican officials are still directing
their citizens to flank our observation posts. We are getting the
Mexican governments attention and making them respond. According to
local ranchers who have land right on the border they have never seen
so many Sheriff Deputies, Border Patrol Agents in the area and have
never seen the Grupo Beta and the Federales on the Mexican side. They
do see the Mexican Army occasionally. They stated that prior to our
arrival they observed trucks, pickups, vans, and even occasionally
taxi cabs bringing people up to the border and dropping them off. The
Mexicans then walk across the border at the first opportunity.
According to the ranchers we talked to this is just about a daily
occurrence. Most have given up contacting officials abouthe problem
as nothing is ever done to help them.

The big news today is Border Patrol supervisors are bitching that
Minutemen are setting off their sensors. Another complaint they are
making is that we are walking in the area they sweep clean then watch
for the footprints of any one coming across these areas so they can
follow them. This is BS. They are informed of the areas that we will
be in. It appears they are getting their orders from on high to
harass us any way they can. Most BP Agents (the grunts who do the
work) are glad we are here.

It appears that our opposition is trying to set us up for arrest and
lawsuits. A Minuteman stopped to lend assistance to a apparent
illegal setting along the highway looking distressed, gave the
individual food and water and called the Border Patrol. The Border
Patrol picked the illegal up and when they got him back to their
holding facility the illegal stated that the Minuteman detained him.
Craph it the fan. The Border Patrol notified the Sheriffs office who
notified the County prosecutor. The Sheriff's Department came to the
camp to investigate the incident. Lucky for this Minuteman the whole
incident was video taped by another Minuteman on the scene. It is
still unknown how the incident will play out. It is against the law
to detain illegal aliens or hold them until the authorities arrive
even on your private property. The authorities will charge you with
unlawful detainment, depriving the illegals of their civil rights
(all though they are breaking the law) and in some cases even
kidnapping. This is the work of the ACLU.

Oh yes, the ACLU are still on the scene in full force hoping to catch
a Minuteman doing something they can sue us for. They even try
provoking us in some cases. It would make their day catching us doing
something they could come after us for. If the future of our country
depended on these brain dead, brain washed individls this country
would be in more trouble then we are all ready.

Returned to camp from the border and worked on the main gate for
another 6 hours. It is up to the individual how much they want to do.
Most are putting in 10-18 hours a day and in some cases even more.
New people come and other people leave daily. I don't think any one
knows the exact number of Minutemen here at any one time cause not
all of them are staying in camp. The number in our camp fluctuates
between 300-400 on any one day Many more are staying in motels, RV
parks, with friends, etc; or live in the area.

The Sheriffs Department notified us that a Hispanic individual from
Tennessee had telephoned them that he was loading up his friends and
coming to Arizona to engage the Minutemen in a gunfight. The FBI was
notified. 4 hours later the FBI notified us that this individual was
definitely not coming to Arizona. It was assumed they arrested this
person.

If EL Presidn te Bush would uphold his oath of office and enforce
immigration laws and close the border American lives would not be in
jeopardy doing the job he refuses to do.

In a speech the other day he stated, " The most important job a
President of a country has is to protect its citizens. To bad he
doesn't practice what he preaches. Hypocrisy at it finest.

Frodo lost! El Presidente Bush has the ring! Until tomorrow!

The whitewash already has started: In July, Republicans on the Senate Intelligence Committee released a controversial report blaming the CIA for the mess. The panel conveniently refuses to evaluate what the White House did with the information it was given or how the White House set up its own special team of Pentagon political appointees (called the Office of Special Plans) to circumvent well-established intelligence channels. And Vice President Dick Cheney continues to say without a shred of proof that there is "overwhelming evidence" justifying the administration's pre-war charges
