At Border, Minutemen Keep A Low Profile; Protesters Don't
Edited on Mon Oct-17-05 11:02 AM by Redstone
From the Caledonian-Record (St.Johnsbury, VT):

Here go the assholes again. But they found out that Vermonters don't like them any more than people in other places: Members of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, a national volunteer border watchdog group, drove and walked down local roads and a bike path in Derby Saturday afternoon, dodging a confrontation with protesters in nearby Derby Line.

The Canadians doen't want to put up with this shit either: The news last week that the Minuteman corps planned a weekend border watch in this area drew about three dozen protesters in Derby Line, and a comparable number in Stanstead. (Stanstead is the Canadian town next to Derby Line; actually, they're like two halves of one town.)

Hey, guess what! Now we're terrorists for wanting these shitheels to shut up and go home: Chris Simcox, a co-founder of the Minuteman volunteers, last week described the protesters as "domestic terrorists. Yeah? Well, chuck you, Farley. Who asked you for your opinion in the first place? Go play cops & robbers somewhere else, bozo. And take your idiot pals with you.

1. Careful, you "Minutemen" there - Canuks ain't allowed sidearms or handguns
.
.
.

We're used to shooting game from a couple of hundred yards away

Sitting in blinds or tree stands for hours waiting for our targets

We usually hit what we shoot at

Yeah - one or two shots

We ain't allowed automatic weapons either - so we gotta be good . .

And then there's us sneaky Canuks that use crossbows

never hear a thing

I'd suggest to stay well away from our border

Hate to mistake y'all for "game"

2. it must be hard to self-contain all that hate for people who would cross
our border.

I mean, a normal person would think, why bother.

It would take someone of the KKK nature for it actually bug that much.
