Special Minuteman Project Edition
Dear Readers:
In honor of April Fools' Day, I turn this column over to Jim Gilchrist, founder of the Minuteman Project movement, to answer your preguntas. Enjoy!
Dear Mexican:
I'm a white, college-educated, liberal, Democrat, socialist U.S. citizen. I don't have any problem with Mexicans coming here to get good jobs. In fact, I don't see the "problem." From your perspective, why are Republicans and redneck dickheads so into building that big fence on the border? I guess what I mean is: If there are so many "illegal" Mexican immigrants in the United States, what's stopping them from becoming "legal"? Is it really a question of attaining citizenship, or is it just plain ol' ignant racism?

Jim's Response:
Immigrants are not a problem, as long as their presence here is legal and within the realm of a responsible immigration policy. Immigration should be of a prescribed number of persons with vocational skills needed to continue the United States as an economic powerhouse with a healthy middle class. An immigrant's integrity and moral character are also necessary to continue our nation as a civilized nation governed by the rules of law.
In light of the irresponsible attitudes of many of our political governors regarding national security and enforcing U.S. immigration laws, a towering border fence is an appealing solution. If our bureaucrats doubled the funding of the Border Patrol and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement, there would be little need for an international fence except in the most remote areas. To grant citizenship or legal status to illegal aliens would mean we are no longer a nation of laws but a nation governed by mob rule — something anathema to a civilized society.
Sadly, there is an element of racial supremacy feeding some immigration law enforcement advocacy groups. In my opinion, William Gheen's ALIPAC, Jeff Schwilk's San Diego Minutemen, and the California Coalition for Immigration Reform appear to be the more abusive groups hiding behind the mantra of "immigration law enforcement" to veil sinister agendas of fascism and/or racism. These groups are no better than the Black Panthers, Brown Berets, Asian gangs, Jewish Defense League, and similar hate groups.
Dear Mexican:
I traveled to Juarez to see the real Mexico and, boy, was I disappointed. Not a single man in white pajamas with his donkey leaning against a cactus. No women with baskets of fruit on their heads. To show how I loved their culture, I mentioned Speedy Gonzales and the Frito Bandito, but people looked at me funny. No one accosted me on the street with, "Hey, Meestair, for 10 bucks you can fuck my mother — she's a virgin." Where do I go for a taste of the real Mexico?

Jim's Response:
There are no men in white pajamas leaning against a cactus or women carrying fruit baskets in Juarez because most of them are dead — shot to death in drug-cartel battles, abducted and held for ransom, or exploited as sex slaves (then murdered anyway) by criminal cartels. That is the Mexico that appears so prominent in the news today. My advice to you, young man, is to stay out of Mexico until Presidente Calderón completes his mission of exterminating the criminal cartels that have plundered Mexico, its people and its infrastructure for the past 50 years. Calderón is an admirable and courageous leader of Mexico. He's the first Mexican president to accept the challenge of tackling the criminal cartels by the horns and wrestling them to the ground. Calderón's vision is to create a "Mexican Dream" in Mexico, similar to the American Dream we experience here. Because criminal cartels operate transnationally, it is paramount that the United States and Mexican law enforcement and military forces work jointly to eradicate the criminal menaces that have severely harmed both countries.
If you want a "real taste" of Mexico, rather than the suicidal taste of blood in your mouth, then hang out in East Los Angeles until the joint efforts of U.S. and Mexican law enforcement restore Mexico to an attractive and safe place to visit.

Why would any American need to ask a Mexican for anything?
You Mexicans can't stop coming to the U.S. for nothing.
This newspaper is lopsided in it's thinking.
By the way does any Mexican newspaper have a feature
"Ask an American"?
I'll bet that would never happen in a million years.
Mr. Gustavo Arellano attacking an American hero like Jim Gilchrist goes to show how arrogant Mexicans are.
You have shot yourself in the foot moron.
Go back to Mexico. That's all I have to say.

Dear Gestapo Arellano,
Why did Geronimo the Apache hate you mexicans so much?
I think he would have loved Jim Gilchrist.
He loved anyone that fought Mexicans in U.S. territory.
If Geronimo knew you Mexicans were on Apache territory he would
have roasted your heads by his camp fire with glee!
I just hope you answer this by Halloween Gestapo Arellano.
I'm hoping AMNESTY is dead by Halloween-- the day of the dead.
You do know that the Mexican government offered bounties on the scalps of Apaches back in the 1800's don't you Gestapo Arellano?
We Americans (Apache Americans) don't take kindly to American haters like you
attacking American heroes like Jim Gilchrist.
We Americans are watching you Mr. Gestapo and we don't like you.
Diane
PS
I'll bet your won't answer this publicly right Gestapo Arellano?
You piece of Mexican shit!

Senor Arellano,
Such a bold and daring move for you to turn your column over to me for a day. I think we will both be referred to as "venditos" by both sides of the debate over illegal immigration.
Just when I thought I could stop wearing a Kevlar vest...hmmm...better start wearing it again. Not to protect me from harm by illegal aliens, but by harm from some ultra-right-incurable-lunatics on my side of the debate.
Gracias, Senor Arellano.
