Considering that there are no known incidents of terrorists entering the country from the Mexican border -- they have come from the north -- I think this is more about keeping out the dirty Mexicans.

I can't view the Minute Men projects as anything more than xenophobia until I see them out patrolling that long stretch of Canadian border.
Tell me all about the 8 million illegal Canadians sucking our welfare dry, clogging our jails and driving down wages.
I'm guessing you don't live in CA do you?
Long before 9/11 this was never a terrorism problem, but an economic one. Our schools are overrun, and our Emergency Rooms are shutting down.
So you want to aid and abet CRIMINAL INVADERS.
Only criminals aid and abet other criminals.
So you refer to them as "dirty Mexicans". Have you always felt this way about Mexicans? By the way, about one million illegal aliens, many of them other-than-Mexicans, come over our southern border each year. I'm sorry to hear that you're not the least bit concerned about this massive amount of lawbreraking.
I can't view the Minute Men projects as anything more than xenophobia until I see them out patrolling that long stretch of Canadian border.
Do you feel that the 47% of Hispanic voters who voted in favor of the anti-illegal alien measure Prop 200 in Arizona last year are a bunch of xenophobes?
They've been patrolling some the Canadian border for some weeks now. It was posted on FR.
