Praising the Minutemen

Praising the Minutemen

In light of a recent CJonline editorial (http://www.cjonline.com/stories/091306/opi_minutemaned.shtml), I feel it necessary to speak in defense of the Minutemen. Maybe the Editorial Board - like many entrenched politicians - just doesn't get it.

Illegal aliens have no respect for our national laws, nor do they care about the "rights" or freedom of American citizens. Some factions of illegal aliens advocate the subversion and outright conquest of several U.S. states. Over 20 million illegal aliens have already infiltrated our nation. That's a very serious threat to our national security, and the government's response to date has been dangerously weak.

In times of crisis, every American citizens has the duty to stand up and work together to end the crisis. 200 years ago the Minutemen stood together to fight for our independence and freedom. Today they are standing up again to defend America's independence and freedom. Instead of criticizing these patriots, we should be supporting their brave efforts.

Respectfully,
