Campo Minutemen ^ | 1/13/08

Kingfish of the Campo Minutemen was contacted by Al Jazeera English and they met at Cameron Corners.

There was a man who identified himself as "Mike Kirsh" who referred to his "body of work." The woman did not give her name.

They were driving a newer black SUV which they stated was owned by the woman's husband. The license plate was noted and provided to the border patrol.

They stated they had spent the previous night with MCDC at Camp Vigilance and wished to spend sometime with the Campo Minutemen. The emphasized that they were with Al Jazeera English and that they were "different." They asked if Kingfish had a family, and he mentioned his uncle who survived the Bataan Death March.

Kingfish stated that he would show them the border, and he wanted, in turn to be able to say Al Jazeera was interested in the border so that maybe our government would build the fence already.

The man stated that he would "not be used like that" at which point Kingfish stated he was not going to be used by them either. At this point the two of them became upset and left quickly. They indicated their interest in another border watch group, which was notified by the Campo Minutemen.

Wise move.

Don’t these people have a computer? This Mike Kirsch guy is a reporter for al jazeera who has been driving around Mexico covering the floods. I am reasonably confident that he is a freelance bailout from some U.S. television station or network. That said, I really object to the idea of giving al jazeera any access to or insights regarding how we police our border that might prove useful to al jazeera’s core terrorist audience.
