Students Attack Minuteman Founder

[ayabe]

Having wreaked havoc onstage, the students unrolled a banner that read, in both Arabic and English, "No one is ever illegal."

Hooray for wealthy white kids raging against the machine, they are so punk.

This is the kind of crap that gives libs a bad name.

What's the purpose of having the banner in Arabic?

The perfect distraction for the righties around here. It involves Mexicans, Arabs (aka terrorist) and "libs".

Anyhow, let the guy speak - he was preaching to the racist choir. They should not have even showed up let alone did anything else.

I dunno, but why not?

A perfect distraction for the lefties around this country. It involves calling African Americans who believe differently than the masses "sellouts". One of the speakers, Marvin Stewart is black.

Unbelievable:

"These are racist individuals heading a project that terrorizes immigrants on the U.S.-Mexican border," Ryan Fukumori, a Columbia junior who took part in the protest, told The New York Sun. "They have no right to be able to speak here."


I love that this fool thinks he has the right to physically threaten the speakers and storm the stage, but they don't have a right to speak. What a f'in hypocrit. I hope you libs are happy with his hypocracy. Oh, and the fact that the groups involved included the campus Socialist party.

This guy is an idiot.
The Minutemen have every right to their view as he does his.
By storming the stage they violated his right to free speech.
What a sad place this country has become.

I see no one posting any support for their actions. So stop labeling everyone hypocrites, your drama queen act is pretty silly. Don't you have a perv congressman to spin for like your buddies on the right in the Foley threads?

This is very very close to a personal attack.

Those types of posts can be a headache and I do not have any painkillers with me

:disgust:

So I guess watching the border and informing the authorities about groups crossing illegally is "terrorizing" them? I havne't heard of any violations of the law that have occurred on their part.

If this guy wanted to know what terror is, his parents should cut off his allowance.

I am close to being liberal BUT.. I would have defended this guy in a very physical manner if I would have witnessed these punks up there..

This is all laid to blame on our school systems..

The people are not illegal but their actions are and their citizenship is and they way they came here is..

They are just as illegal as a person who breaks into a business after hours to rob/burglarize it.

 

[tvarad]

It's because of 9/11 that there is increased vigilance on the border. If I were Hispanic, I would kick an Arab's a*se and say "look what you morons have done".

 

[Thump553]

The Minutemen are essentially a vigilante group spoiling for an incident. This moronic attack plays so well for them (a banner in Arabic for pete's sake) that the conspiracist in me wouldn't put it beyond them to have set it up.

 

[magomago]

because arabic looks cooler than spanish

 

[babylon5]

No one is illegal, including Drug cartels and MS-13 shaved head gang members bringing destruction to US cities.

Are you lost? This is p&n

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Keep us Arabs out of this. We have enough PR problems as it is without getting us involved in the illegal immigration debacle.

 

[Moonbeam]

Obviously these right winged students were there to disrupt the Minutemans' attempt to stem the tide of Mexican cheep labor and threatened Corporate America's grip on profits. Clearly also the acted in such a way as to deflect negative attention to the left. They're noting but a bunch of corporate hired stooges.

 

[ProfJohn]

What are the chances that we will see this story in any main stream media outlet? Maybe buried in the back the New York Times or something, but otherwise no one will know about this.

Did anyone see that news story about the Mexican immigrant rally in L.A. where the took down the American flag from a post office and raised a Mexican flag?

Why doesn't the media do some reporting on these stories?
Mexican Flag over American Post Office
Another flag story with video

Not politically correct!

QFT. A protest like this is probably the Minutemens' wet dream.

I haven't seen any major news coverage about it yet, however.

Thank you for that, I am sure we will see this on Hannity and Colmes since they do a lot with issues like this, the question is will CNN or MSNBC say anything? Will the almighty Olbermann enshrine these protesters with his "worlds worst" plaque for interrupting the speech of a guy who was invited to be there?

Edit: must have not proof read my post... oops

I thought these guys don't take the law into their own hands -- only notify the authorities -- so technically you can't call them vigilantes.
