THE MINUTEMEN WANT A FENCE
The immigration "debate" continues....and with every passing day, the American people get more and more fed up with the invasion of illegal aliens from Mexico. One proposal being kicked around is to build the equivalent of The Great Wall of Mexico. That's right...a huge wall stretching some 1,951 miles...from San Diego to Brownsville. That should just about do it. Make it a double-fence. Let really hungry dogs patrol the space between. It's an invasion ... it needs to be stopped.
At any rate, the desire for some sort of border wall is falling on deaf ears in Washington. It's not politically correct.....people think it's mean. But building a wall to prevent an invasion is natural right of any citizen or government. Mexicans are talking about the "reconquista." That's the dream of many Mexicans to retake the American Southwest ... as their own. If you aren't sufficiently agitated by this invasion, perhaps you would like to log on to http://www.aztlan.net/. There you will find a story about a University of New Mexico Chicano Studies professor who is predicting a new, sovereign Hispanic nation in the Southwest. He calls it the "Republica del Norte" That would translate into the Republic of the North. This professor in an American university says that this is inevitable. Do you like the sound of that?
Anyway, enter the Minutemen. This is the group of citizen militia that have been patrolling the border with Mexico on their own time. They're tired of the endless stampede from Mexico. So now they've issued an ultimatum to President Bush. Build a fence or we'll do it for you.
In fact, it may happen. Already, landowners along the border are stepping forward to donate the land to put up the wall and contractors have stepped forward to donate equipment to build it. This could work...and maybe we can finally put a lid on illegal immigration.
Maybe.
