The Minutemen understand law, order, and civility. Their goal is not hatred or racial supremacy (and I challange you to prove that one), their purpose is to ensure the safety of this country through secure boarders. It is illegal for someone from another country to enter our country without some form of authorization (and there are many LEGAL means for non-U.S. citizens to enter our country). The minutemen simply wish to put an end to illegal entry.
You DO understand law, order, and civility, don't you? Apparently, the liberals at Columbia don't, since their storming of the stage and throwing unprovoked punches and kicks were unlawful, disordered, and uncivil.
A) Their entire goal is to get 20 million Hispanics and their children (most American Citizens) deported just because of the color of their skin. Not racist at all!
B) The minuteman have done organized events where they follow church workers who leave water barrels in the desert so immigrants don’t die and pierce them... I may just be me, but a group who tries to kill Hispanic woman and children is a lil-racist…
Do i defend a peaceful protest? Absolutely! It was the fascist minutemen who then started throwing punches and trying to hurt... you guessed it, Hispanics.
There are times I do not agree with the Minutemen's tactics, but I believe to call them racist as a whole because you do not agree with their policy is counterintuitive to the immigration debate. In reference to this video, part of free speach in this country is allowing alternate viewpoints to come out and respecting that right and their forum. When you storm the stage during a properly organized event you do nothing but make a fool out of yourself and your cause. There is a time and a place for such antics and that was not it.
"criminals robbing, raping, and killing others I am frankly disgusted and discouraged."
White criminals too? Right?
"When I see un-insured un-employed Hispanics standing in our emergency rooms, non English speakers in our schools,"
Legal or illegal? What about the other non-English speakers? Are the Chinese, Japanese, Afghanis, etc. welcome? In my school, we have close to 30 different languages spoken. I know this is hard to comprehend but legal immigrants also have a right to an education. We will immerse them in English but that takes time. Is it ok for these people to be in YOUR schools or are they too "foreign" for you?
But you should watch it all the same. During a speech given by a member of the Minuteman Project, a group of students charged the stage, unraveled signs, and a general melee ensued.This sort of stuff happened in Weimar Germany, just before the brownshirts arrived to enforce (and protect) a doctrine of racial supremacy, militarism, and hate.
There's a political rant at the end, but largely the gentleman is right. This shouldn't represent higher education at Columbia, yet unfortunately it passes for education and civility in many, many universities.

Do you really DEFEND this behavior?
