Any vigilante group should be considered criminals.

Actually, the question you posted about la raza indicated you thought they were being given a bum rap. Is that how you feel about the minutemen, too?
No, unless individuals amongst them commit crimes, clearly they are not criminals.
Is there really a question? What law would they be breaking?
--
And US Veteran, I agree as a policy that vigilante groups are risky, but how do you explain the citizen arrest laws? Clearly it is not against the law to do what they do.

LOL - ok, ancient history of a week ago. Is someone else using your account? Because 6 days ago your questions/answers swerved.
--
ok, input. Look at their web page, go to 'volunteer'. You will see that amongst other things you have to send $50 for a background check to make sure you aren't in any hate groups.
Do you think La Raza does that? While funding MEChA?
I used to keep waiting for the other shoe to drop, and for one of their groups to do something horrible, but it just doesn't seem to be happening.

I don't like La Raza or Minute Men. I do think both of them are a bit off when it comes to what they believe.

I don't think they have committed any crimes. We allow protests in this country and as far as I see it...they are protesting against people sneaking across our borders illegally.

Not until they become 15 minute men. One minute isn't long enough.

They are the only ones with the courage to do what we all should be doing.

I don't think so. Their just doing what the federal government refuses to do. If the govt just did their job and enforce the immigration laws, there wouldn't be organizations like the Minute Men.

What crime has the minute men committed? All they do is watch the border and report the invaders to the Border Patrol.
No one can provide even one incident where the Minute men have committed a crime.
Whereas the illegal aliens commit crimes.

Yes they are criminals. They are vigilantes hunting a specific group of people....Mexicans! And I can bet a million $$$ that some of them are members of the KKK.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. If the government FOR the people won't do squat, then the government OF the people need to step up.
The Minute Men did just that!

You will get mant thumbs down and many attacks on this board if you are in any way shape or form in favor of Immigrants..
I think that Minutemen have a right to do what they choose as long as they dont carry guns and shoot Mexicans!

The Minute Men are upholding the law. They are doing the work our government won't do.

Of course they are not criminals. They are simply doing the job that Govt. will not.California spent 9 Billion dollars last year alone on services for illegal aliens. Dont you think that money would be better spent on american citizens?

The Minute men are my Heroes and I would live to join their group to enforce American Laws. So you are a member of the mInute men please post how we can get on board. The Minute Men donot put their hands on the illegals they spot them then they call the border patrols and the border patrols arrest the illegals. So they have not broken the law. As a matter of fact the government broker the law. We have a immigration laws right now but the government will not enforce them. George Bush you need to walk your stupid self out of office you have done nothing but hurt the American economy.

Ur question seems vague.
However, the minute men r common every day folk who, (to the best of my knowledge) have not committed any crimes. (define crimes?) If reporting drug smugglers, potential terrorists, and illegal aliens is a crime - then I guess you'd have to call me a criminal as well. Is it also a 'crime' to report people who break into ur house?
The minute men are doing what our elected officials so cowardly do not - that is - help protect America from an invasion to the south.
The minute do not 'just arrest Mexicans' - they report ALL illegal aliens. If most of the illegal aliens happen to be Mexican -it's not the minute men's problem.
btw, what did the racist orgainization call 'La Raza' have to say?

RACIST unemployed individuals that have nothing better to do than to go camping in the desert. WANNABE HEROS.

No. Now, why would they be criminals? Please, try reading The Constitution. Pay particular attention to the first 10 amendments. They're called The Bill of Rights.
La Raza (The Race), although having more in common with the Ku Klux Klan (For the race everything, for others, nothing.), is also not an illegal organization and the members are not criminals. It's perfectly legal to be a racist in this country. Again, check The Bill of Rights if you don't believe me.
