Minutemen catch 141 illegals so farNo incidents so far and if there are any, what do you want to bet it's not because of the Minutemen?
In its second day of operations, the civilian volunteer Minuteman Project claimed to have aided the Border Patrol in the apprehension of 141 illegal aliens along the Arizona border and deterred many more from attempting to cross from Mexico.
With the project gaining favorable attention, a city official from New Mexico announced he would like to expand the project to his state. "It has been successful," said Chris Simcox of Civil Homeland Defense, a group aiding the Minuteman Project. "No one has come across."
I'm hoping that this is such a sucess that someone brings it here to California....

A city councilman from Santa Fe, N.M., today disputed a news story reporting that he wants to bring the Minuteman Project, the citizen border-patrol effort in Arizona, to New Mexico.I'm guessing that this guyAs WorldNetDaily reported, City Councilman David Pfeffer told the Albuquerque Journal he wants to be personally involved in the volunteer effort to patrol the border for illegal immigrants and smugglers.
"I would be willing to get involved with an effort along New Mexico's borders," Pfeffer said, according to the report.
Pfeffer attended a gathering Friday of Minuteman volunteers in Tombstone, Ariz.
The Journal reported Pfeffer said he would "absolutely" be willing to get involved with a New Mexico citizen border-patrol project.
After reportedly receiving heat for the alleged comments, Pfeffer contacted KRQE-TV in Albuquerque to refute the story.
Also, the Journal published a letter to the editor by Pfeffer today contradicting the story.
"The headline and the first three paragraphs are completely false," Pfeffer wrote in the letter. "The impression conveyed is completely false. The alleged quotations attributed to me in support of this impression are completely false."
The paper says it stands by its reporting and has checked the reporter's notes to verify the story's accuracy.

I imagine it would be like a fishing trip, only the results are actually useful to other people and you still get that same sense of self satisfaction.

This guy is a Democrat in an area with a Dem majority who came out for Bush in the last election. He probably did get some heat for saying what he did, then his spine turned to jelly and he folded under pressure and recanted.
Nothing like standing up for your beliefs, eh...
