SATURDAY PROTEST WELLS FARGO Saturday, December 11 Action Report

Protesters with signs and American flags stunned a Temecula Wells Fargo bank when more than 40 protesters greeted arriving customers Saturday, December 11.

Protesters were posted on either side of the entrance/exit driveway and spilled out along the length of the sidewalk.

Signs and flags waved. Signs read:

*The Wells Fargo stagecoach is running across the border, illegally

*Did you know illegals bank here?

*Terrorists open accounts at Wells Fargo (the man with this sign dressed in a Middle Eastern costume)

Bank-goers gawked. Passing motorists honked. The Well Fargo management fumed.

Many Wells Fargo customers spoke to we protesters.

The banks that DO NOT accept the Matricula Consular ID, were listed on a flyer we had printed up, which we distributed. We spoke to customers, who approached us, about illegal aliens' usage of the Matricula Consular ID.

In short, we had the opportunity to educate the general public.

One bank manager frequently stood on the stoop of the bank, arms folded, scowling. A seasoned security guard eventually stood at attention at the bank doors.

We think it is safe to assume Wells Fargo was abuzz with talk of the protest!

Wells Fargo called the police.

An officer walked among us and told us to remain on the sidewalk, which we were, of course, doing. We were polite and courteous to the officer and told her we would comply with all laws. We thanked her.

Fifteen minutes later, Wells Fargo had another police officer come upon the scene. He too walked among us and told us we must remain on the sidewalk. And, again, we assured the officer we would follow all laws. We thanked him.

Our numbers were large enough that we fanned out and covered both sides of the street, as a Bank of America is across the street from Wells Fargo. So we were able to also protest in front of Bank of America too.

Eventually, five counter protests showed up with homemade signs. It was a local, fourth generation Mexican American family, a mother and her adult children, and two Non-Hispanic college students.

We protesters swarmed the counter protesters.

Interestingly enough, as the two groups mixed and calmed down and talked, we discovered we had much in common. The Hispanic family does not approve of MECHA. The Hispanic family, just like we protesters, stated American employers are promoting illegal immigration. The Hispanic family and we protesters agreed that both the Mexican and U.S. governments are to blame for illegal immigration.

The Hispanic family and we protesters found common ground and we ended up on friendly terms!

The protest was a great success. We will be holding future bank protests and will keep you posted on dates and locations. Hope you can join us!

Reminds of the day Gale Norton was at the headgate

Oh yes, the good old days up in Klamath Falls. More of your silly protest activities. Why does your clique seem to pick the silliest and most useless issues in which to involve yourself?

[ClintonBeGone]

That indian on this thread would be clinton be gone harassing Maarine Inspector, he's a pretty good expert, haling all the way from Michigan, to harass MI who does what again for a living?

I'll never pass up the opportunity to harass a fat government bureaucrat who's on this site advocating for policies that are certain to keep him employed. I want smaller government and see no reason why MI and other unproductive members of the federal government can't be sacrificed for the cause.

Actually, I'm advocating politics that would most likely end my career.

See, If we stop illegal immigration, they won't need as many immigration agents and most of us will end up being let go.

Once again, you spin the facts better then a Democrat. Maybe you should head over to DU.

LOL just like those welfare bureaucrats who continue to want new programs to end dependency on government, and ultimately do away with the need for handouts. Nice try chief. We've heard this song before.

[dixiechick2000]

Thanks for the pings.
It's very good to see you.

This is a very interesting thread,
to say the least. ;o)

MI, thank you for all that you do.
I, for one, really appreciate it.

[Marine Inspector]

I don't think I've run across a Freeper more intellectually dishonest as you.

Good job.

[Marine Inspector]

Your welcome and thank you for your support.

[occutegirl]

He does not even make sense.

[Marine Inspector]

You have to have sense to make senes.

[occutegirl]

are you really a Customs & Border Protection Officer?

[Marine Inspector]

Yes

Hey Clinton Be Gone, Is attack mode your only ability?

Reminds of the day Gale Norton was at the headgate Oh yes, the good old days up in Calamity Falls. More of your silly protest activities. Why does your clique seem to pick the silliest and most useless issues in which to involve yourself?

So you gutless wonder, ever been an activist? Ever pay attention to what happens in the world? Ever wonder how freedom is stolen from formerly free parts of the world? I didn't think so; maybe Albert Einstein could offer you a clue -

"The strength of the Constitution lies entirely in the determination of each citizen to defend it. Only if every single citizen feels duty bound to do his share in this defense are the constitutional rights secure."

I served my four years with the military, I go to the front line as far as I can legally without becoming "cannon fodder", for freedom, I fax, and email, my congressmen and senators. You make for some kind of hot shot keyboard warrior.

Perhaps you should take a clue from Sam Adams -

" If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands that which feed you. May your chain be set lightly upon you and posterity forget ye were our countrymen."

You wouldn't have the courage to stand up for yourself, and force an issue, that you believed in, you would just as soon lay down and take a whipping by those that serve it up. Spineless and weak is how your arrogance comes across in this thread.

As far as Klamath goes, It was a great victory for property rights and those who (or their forefathers) paid for the land in blood during WWII. It was the turning point in getting America to do some critical thinking about reality. It was one of many battles fought to keep freedom up front. Even the government had to admit they had been hoodwinked by the greenies, and that this issue of water and enviro-whackism attacking the country needs to be paid heed. Your ignorance that's showing, makes me suspicious of you being a liberal here in republican clothing, with your "hautier than thou" attitude.

Useless issues?Useless describes your persona to a tee. At least when engaging in conversation with the opposition (liberals and the misled), there is hope of planting a seed with them, I don't have anymore time to try and get a light to come upstairs for you...appears you have been dark in there for quite some time.






Dear Clinton Be Gone,


Johnny and I send our most sincere appreciation of your comments here to me, this day!

[Jeff Head]

Silly and useless issues at Klamath, huh?

Well, the day 1500 honest, all American, hard working families...most of them veterans or the children of veterens...and their livelihood, their rights, their liberty becomes silly and useless will be a cold day in hell as far as I am concerned. Thank God literally scores of thousands didn;t agree with you and were willing, in one capacity or another, get off their duffs and act.

Perhaps that cold day has come for you CBG, but, as I said, thank God it has not come for many of the rest of us. Attitudes like the ones that vouchsafed and helped those farmers in the Klamath Basin (both from themselves and those who stood with them) are the same that drove the Swifties and so many others to keep Kerry out of the White House. It's the same spirit...it's the same activism.

I don't know if I agree with AuntB and Issaquahking on every issue...my wife and I have been married for 28 years and we don't agree on every issue...but I can say this, when the chips were down for those innocent people...AUNTB AND ISSAQUAHKING WERE THERE! I'd be proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with them in such a situation again, any time, any place....and I am proud to call such "silly" people, with by your foolish (IMHO) definition, such "useless" notions, my dear friends.

Such folks are the salt of this nation and their mettle is what helps gives our liberty true meaning. You should give some of their silly and useless notions a try sometime CBG...who knows, you may find a lot more meaning, purpose, and fulfilment and comfort in life...the kind that is more than skin deep.

[ClintonBeGone]

Jeff, I appreciate your comments. At least we can disagree peacefully and with respect.

[Jeff Head]

If you would like to learn more about the feelings these folks (and I) have regarding these land and water rights issues, SQUEEZE HERE for a presentation by Wayne Hage, a Nevada Rancher married to Helen Chenowith Hage (former Idaho Congressional Rep).

[farmfriend]

Oh yes, the good old days up in Klamath Falls. More of your silly protest activities. Why does your clique seem to pick the silliest and most useless issues in which to involve yourself?

Let's see you say that to our faces.

BTTT!!!!!!

You have no idea how strongly I agree with you! My dream would be to have the immigration and border control agencies disappear like a ghost in the night.

The Border Patrol agents rarely shoots back at the illegals who fire first. I wouldn't feel under the same restriction that they are under.

Leaving illegal immigration up to the property owners would solve this problem very rapidly. You have no idea how well a concerned property owner can defend his/her property, especially with the tools available today. A few signs in multilanguage explaining what the penalties are for crossing property lines with a couple of motion detectors, trip wires, etc would convince the first trespassers quite well.

Even a free access fool such as yourself wouldn't walk across property that had these signs up. Now whether or not you might allow your illegal alien girlfriend to is another matter. I hope not.

You would be surprised at how effective those signs are when the ground isn't planted with mines! Even the ignorant VC avoided that land like it was diseased.

Thanks. I'm watching and learning.
