Maybe it's the name ... "Minutemen" implies guns and shooting, a la Lexington and Concord, not just standing about with cell phones.

In my opinion, those who choose to call the Minutemen, Vigilantes, do so to demonize and discredit them-period.

"Minutemen" implies guns and shooting, a la Lexington and Concord, not just standing about with cell phones.It is also a problem that the white-supremacists/neo-nazis have attempted to jump onto the Minuteman bandwagon, which makes the average law-abiding citizens nervous. Anyone running a campaign has to recognize and actively address the "guilty by association" issues that inevitably emerge.
