CA: Immigration event turns hostile (Minuteman)

GARDEN GROVE — An event honoring an anti-illegal immigrant leader tonight was marred by altercations between anti-immigration activists and protesters, resulting in an arrest when two demonstrators were hit by a slow-moving van.

The driver was Hal Netkin of Van Nuys, said Barbara Coe, chairwoman of the California Coalition for Immigration Reform.

Protesters were blocking a driveway when Netkin tried to drive through and knocked two demonstrators to the ground, Deputy Police Chief K.J. Raney said.

Netkin was arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon. At least one of the protesters was hospitalized.

"Knowing (Netkin), he panicked," Coe said.

Billy Hall, a member of Coe’s group, said shortly afterward that his car window was broken by a protester. Hall said he filed a police report.

The event sponsored by Coe’s group honored Aliso Viejo resident Jim Gilchrist. Gilchrist’s Minuteman Project last month attracted nearly 900 people to patrol a stretch of Arizona border in an effort to stop entry by illegal immigrants. The effort was praised by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger but condemned by President George W. Bush, who called the volunteers "vigilantes."

"I’m damned proud to be a vigilante," Gilchrist told the 150 people assembled at the Garden Grove Women’s Club. "How about you?"

He received a rousing ovation. He also said that deporting the millions of people in the country illegally would lower home prices, reduce traffic congestion and lower taxes.

Nearly 100 protesters picketed and chanted on the sidewalk. One sign read, "Beat Back the Racist Attack."

"Their racist acts are being masked by patriotism," said Obed Sanchez of Garden Grove. "To say illegal immigrants are coming over here and ruining our lives is ridiculous. We need immigrants like a tree needs water. Even President Bush recognizes that."

Dittos on Hal Netkin who has been a good activist in LA against the invasion from Mexico. He helped get Hahn in last time for mayor instead of Villagarossa... who made it this time. Too many intruders in Californian are turning it into a province of Mexico.

I am currently exchanging emails with a guy who works at the Seattle Times about how irresponsible they are for the Minuteman headline. Here is a snippet of his email, "I can't verify every fact because I wasn't there, but the headline appears to be accurate based on the report. The story came from the Los Angeles Times. We reported what they sent us. We publish news, as reported by other news publications.

He now wants me to do his job and send him specifics and sources.

Howa

Hmmm. Panama. The Panama that China now nearly owns. Any connection, I wonder?

"No $$$$ for promoters of illegal immigration" BUMP

You might find Nightline interesting tonight. A group of high school kids enter the national underwater robotics competition in the college division and defeat MIT to take first place.

The Rest Of The Story: they are all illegal aliens.

.

Hispanics, not Asians.

We all know that not all illegals are members of MS-13, just as not all WASPs are good people.

Let me know when Nightline does a segment on the event we're discussing.

[Happy2BMe]

That's pretty old stuff. Yes, the Chinese continue to squeeze into South America. They are very active in Canada also.

But this expansion has escalated even more under the past five than the previous nine.

"Let me know when Nightline does a segment on the event we're discussing"

Yeah, and let me know when hell freezes over. Nightline is further left than CBS.

[Happy2BMe]

Did either of you happen to catch the Lou Dobbs show last night where they covered this event?

It was excellent - really showed the true nature of LaRaza and crew.

"Hispanics, not Asians."

All from mexico?

Are you suggesting another China=DNC link, here?

Someone's going through extra effort to obscure who's behind swarmtheminutemen.com by using a private regisration through Domains by Proxy.

BUT, Domains by Proxy has some clauses in their service agreement we can exploit. Navigate here and click on the blue "morally objectionable activities" text.

I'm thinking that the content on swarmtheminutemen.com is exactly the kind of "morally objectionable" activity that Domains by Proxy, Inc. does NOT want to be legally involved with via a business relationship. I'm tinking I'll drop them a line and send them some email. I'm also thinking that some other folks around here might like to do the same.

That doesn't really tell much does it?

[Bernard]

The motorist had attended Gilchrist's speech and was leaving when protesters began hitting his van with placards and other objects, The driver said he gunned his car engine to get away from the crowd....

Sounds more like self-defense with a vehicle than assault with a deadly weapon. Wasn't this activity close to where a truck driver was pulled from his vehicle and beaten?

[Happy2BMe]

FWIW, when the illegal aliens take to the streets, IMHO it will make the '92 and Watts Riots look like daycare snack time.

[international american]

Missed it, can you elaborate.

Hispanics, not Asians.

And your point is what? That some illegal aliens are doing well in their science classes at school? There are many American lawbreakers who did well in school too, but that doesn't change the fact that they're still lawbreakers.
