If the Minute Men were tough
Edited on Fri Mar-31-06 03:27 PM by DanCa
wouldn't they be counter protesting these pro immigration rallies? I haven't seen or heard one iota from them since the protest began. Of course if the minute men were patriotic they'd all ready be in Iraq no?

1. They'd be demanding bullet-proof sheets if they went to Iraq.
And pointy helmets for their pointy heads.

3. And torches
And maybe a pitch fork as a side arm?

2. And note they only come out when the weather is temperate.
They don't sit in the desert in the peak Sunner months. Too much sweating involoved.

The weird thing is that this whole immigration thing is really a labor issue.

The bottom line is that there are plenty of Americans who are willing to do the work, it's just that the farmers don't want to pay a fair wage.

4. Ha! That's what you want them to do!
Sure, they leave the border to stand up against them and BAM! the US of A is flooded with illegals.

Pretty sneaky sis.

5. There apparently was one here today..
in Northern Virginia. The local news says it was an "anti-immigration" rally. A teenager was stabbed.

:cry:
