Then Obama sues Arizona for trying to deal with the foreign crime wave themselves by merely enforcing existing federal laws. Even Democratic Congressmembers in Arizona are outraged at Obama and criticizing him publicly for his actions. Parts of Southern Arizona are now off limits to American citizens due to the smuggling dangers, and shockingly, this administration continues to openly pander to Mexico and foreign criminals. This reeks of political corruption normally seen only in Third World countries. Had enough of this insanity yet?

Barbara Coe, who leads the Huntington Beach (http://topics.ocregister.com/topic/Huntington_Beach) anti-illegal immigration group California (http://topics.ocregister.com/topic/California) Coalition for Immigration Reform, is in the midst of forming a contingent of activists to go to the June 5 rally in Phoenix (http://topics.ocregister.com/topic/Phoenix). Thousands of anti-illegal immigration supporters are expected to show at a June 5 rally in Pheonix, Arizona. COURTESY buycott (http://www.buycottarizona.com/)Arizona by buying items made in the state or planning a vacation there. The call is in reaction to mounting criticism, lawsuits and boycotts (http://edition.cnn.com/2010/TRAVEL/05/11/arizona.travel.boycott/) directed toward Arizona after it adopted a law that cracks down on illegal immigration. The law requires law enforcement officials who have already stopped someone on suspicion of a violation to question that person about his or her immigration status if there is reasonable suspicion the person may be in the country illegally. The law is expected to go into effect in July but may be delayed by pending court challenges. The law has led to allegations that it would lead to racial profiling against Latinos and destroy the trust law enforcement has worked years in trying to foster with the Latino community in that region. Anti-illegal immigration activists are calling for people to support Arizona's crackdown, stating that it is the only way the state can defend itself after becoming the nation's busiest corridor for illegal immigration and smuggling. Coe said while the law takes place in another state, it's relevant to Orange County. I think it does have everything to do with not only Orange County but California and nationwide, Coe said. These people have taken a courageous stand. We are just absolutely thrilled and we're going to make the trip to support them as best as we can. www.ChuckDeVore.com (http://www.chuckdevore.com/) sums up why he has such strong support from average citizens in this election. Chuck DeVore believes government’s most important role is to secure our rights. This was the Founders’ view of government too. Bigger government encroaches on our liberty. Last week, there was a lot of hype surrounding Fiorina's endorsement from the former half-term Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin. No one really knows exactly who or what Sarah Palin represents with her wildly unpopular endorsements of John McCain, Fiorina, and other liberal RINOs , but she obviously does not speak for the millions of conservative citizens and tea party Patriots in California. The many diverse, pro-law enforcement groups that make up the SoCal Patriot Coalition, with their tens of thousands of members and supporters, will be proud to call Chuck DeVore our next Senator from California! #### La Raza Punk Protesters assault American Ralliers in San Diego at May Day Rally May 4. 2010 Two Pro-Illegal alien criminals assaulted Tony as he and Mike walked to their car down Broadway after leaving the Pro-America rally at the Federal Building. The criminals were detained and charges are being pressed on the attackers. This is now the 29th bonifide attack on peaceful Americans in SD County since 2005.These violent foreign terrorists and Mexican insurgents will never take our country. They will always be ILLEGAL ALIENS! PRESS RELEASE May 3, 2010 Jeff Schwilk, Coordinator, www.SoCalPatriots.com (http://www.socalpatriots.com/) SoCal Patriots Coalition (SCP) CONDEMNS San Diego City Council for Misguided Resolution S-400 against the People of Arizona San Diego, CA – SCP, a large coalition of border security and rule-of-law grass-roots community groups in San Diego and Southern California hereby CONDEMNS San Diego City Council Resolution S-400 which falsely accuses the State of Arizona of racial profiling in passing a tough new law against ILLEGAL immigration and violent crime by criminal aliens. SB-1070 and the clarification law AB 2162 signed into law on April 30, make it 100% clear that racial profiling is illegal in the State of Arizona. Councilman Ben Hueso's blantant lies and La Raza activist propaganda spouted at today's council meeting does nothing but divide communities along racial lines and promote hate and fear among Latinos in San Diego. Law abiding citizens in Arizona, San Diego, and throughout the nation have nothing to fear when our Federal and local laws are enforced. Law enforcement makes all citizens safer. No one's rights have been violated in Arizona and none will be under their new, necessary law. SCP hereby supports our neighbors in Arizona who are under daily attack from deadly Mexican drug cartels and foreign criminals who terrorize the citizens of Arizona with imputnity due to the lack of Federal enforcement of our borders and our immigration laws. The citizens and legal immigrants of Arizona and San Diego demand secure borders and strong enforcement of our laws and we will not allow our cities to become killing zones like Tijuana and Juarez. We praise and thank Councilman Carl DeMaio for correcting Hueso with facts and truths about the Arizona law and for taking a strong stand against this divisive, hate-filled, and totally unnecessary Resolution S-400. DeMaio was the one sane Councilman voting no against this assinine and unnecessary resolution. #### San Diego Pro-America Rally! Pass the word and let's make this a huge show of support for the People of Arizona and the Rule of Law in America! No Amnesty for Illegal Aliens! Equal Justice not Social Justice! Confirmed Speakers: Congressional Candidate Mason Weaver, Patriot New York Mike (SD Harley Davidson). More TBA Friday. What: Pro-America / Pro-law enforcement rally, San Diego.

The citizens of San Diego County applaud Arizona's tough new enforcement law and demand similar enforcement here to stem the tide of Mexican drug cartel violence and drug human smuggling into and through our border communities. Join your fellow Americans and stand up for our country and the rule of law! FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 23, 2010 Jeff Schwilk, Founder, San Diego Minutemen San Diego Minutemen and SoCal Patriots Coalition Praise New Arizona Enforcement Law San Diego, CA – Border Security and rule of law activist groups in San Diego, Southern California, and nationwide are praising Arizona's tough new enforcement bill that Governor Jan Brewer signed into law this afternoon to deal with their ongoing border crisis. This bill will finally allow local law enforcement to deal with the foreign crime in Arizona created by Mexican drug cartel violence and smuggling which has swept over the border and overwhelmed Federal border and ICE agents in recent years. The recent murder of an Arizona rancher 15 miles north of the border by a suspected Mexican cartel smuggler highlights the life and death situation that Arizonans face on a daily basis. Illegal immigration and crime has exploded along America's border regions and Arizona's response with strong enforcement will ultimately benefit both the United States and Mexico , said Francisca Galvan, spokeswoman for the San Diego Minutemen and a legal immigrant from Mexico. This new law was needed while we wait for the Federal Government to deploy the National Guard to the border and finish the secure border fence to keep out the foreign criminals and violent smugglers. Until the Obama Administration and Congress fulfills its Constitutional duty to secure our borders, local law enforcement in all states will be forced to deal with foreign crime and criminals in our cities and states, including arresting illegal aliens and criminals and turning them over to ICE and the Border Patrol for removal back to their countries of residence. SDMM and www.SoCalPatriots.com (http://www.socalpatriots.com/) commend and support all law enforcement in their daily efforts to keep all citizens safe. #### April 20, 2010Illegal alien in San Diego wins Defamation Lawsuit for being called a 'Criminal' Setback for the 1st Amendment An illegal-alien day laborer who attacked an American photographer at a notorious San Diego day labor site in 2006, was awarded $2,500 in damages for defamation per se by Judge Ronald Styn in a non-jury trial in San Diego Superior Court on April 15. The Mexican national plaintiff, Alberto Jimenez, who was illegally in the country at the time of the attack of Los Angeles photographer John Monti, sued San Diego Minutemen founder Jeff Schwilk for defamation for calling the illegal immigrant attackers criminals when he forwarded an email with Monti's pictures of Jimenez and six other suspects who were at the scene of the crime. Initially the lawsuit was filed in October 2007 and all seven men shown on the flyer sued Schwilk, Monti, and Fox News Corporation for defamation. However, Fox News and Monti were eventually dismissed from the case in 2008 and 2009 and six of the seven plaintiffs dropped their lawsuits against Schwilk in February, leaving only Jimenez vs. Schwilk for the one-day judge-only trial. When the trial began, Jimenez was not in the courtroom to meet his accuser. Schwilk immediately asked Judge Styn for a directed verdict to dismiss the case, but the judge opted to start the trial without him and gave Jimenez additional time to appear in court as his attorney said he was running late. The plaintiff's attorney, Dan Gilleon, claimed his client was trying to get across the border and needed more time because he was a Tijuana, Mexico resident. As testimony began Schwilk admitted that he had forwarded Monti's ‘wanted’ flyer by email the day after the attack. The email was sent to a dozen law enforcement and trusted community leaders so they could be on the lookout for the suspects who were still at large. He explained anyone with knowledge of these pictured men needed to notify San Diego Police Department. The victim, Mr. Monti then testified that Jimenez was indeed one of the seven men who attacked him from “behind and knocked him into the busy boulevard that Saturday morning in 2006.” Monti explained he had gone to the day labor site to investigate the connection between the street-side illegal alien hiring site and child prostitution in the nearby the migrant camps where many of the day laborers live. Monti also said under oath that Jimenez had previously testified in his criminal trial in 2007 that he was an illegal alien and had no legal papers to gain employment legally in the U.S. It is worth pointing out that Gilleon wanted to bar television video coverage of the one-day trial, however, the defendant, Schwilk and the judge stated it was an open court and cameras would be permitted in the courtroom. After a lunch break the defense called Jimenez to the witness stand, but Jimenez still had not arrived in court 4 1/2 hours after the start of the trial. Gilleon then claimed that “Jimenez' wife was having surgery and he could not attend the trial that day.” Judge Styn was clearly tired of the excuses, however he allowed the trial to continue. It became clear the real reason Jimenez could not come to the trial was because he was not eligible to enter the country legally from his home in Tijuana, Mexico. Schwilk again asked Judge Styn for a directed verdict, but again the judge declined, he wanted to proceed with closing statements. Schwilk pointed out to the judge that he had a right to question his accuser and the judge seemed to agree, but he also wanted to conclude the trial without the plaintiff. Schwilk said, “I knew at that point the fix was in. This was so obviously a charade by Dan Gilleon and his La Raza employers who brought this frivolous case against us. There was no plaintiff in this case. This was a sham trial with no real accuser and Judge Styn played right along with La Raza's devious plan. During the closing arguments, Gilleon accused Schwilk of conspiring with Sean Hannity, Alan Colmes and Fox News to spread Jimenez' face around the world in an effort to defame the day laborer by characterizing him as a wanted criminal. The case against Fox News was dismissed earlier in what was a fishing expedition because Hannity and Colmes aired a story in late November 2006 regarding the assault featuring Monti and his flyer with the seven men's grainy pictures on it.

La Raza attorney and little attack dog (Chihuahua) Daniel Gilleon of San Diego is on the warpath again bringing another false lawsuit to trial against SDMM founder Jeff Schwilk. This time local Mexican activists are paying Gilleon to represent 7 day laborers from Mexico (most of them illegal aliens) and their ridiculous defamation lawsuit stemming from a 2006 incident where they attacked John Monti at the Rancho Penasquitos day labor site because he dared to photograph them and their felony-committing employers who were stopping to hire illegal aliens at that site. Claudia Smith's day laborers/illegal aliens claim Schwilk defamed them for telling his law enforcement contacts that Monti said they attacked him. Another desperate and pathetic attempt to slow down the wildly successful and popular San Diego Minutemen and chill our American free speech. Sorry La Raza, no dice! We'll never stop telling the public about your dirty little alien secrets and all the crime and billions in costs that open borders with Mexico costs America! Trial starts Feb. 11 at 9:30, Dept. 62 Downtown Superior Court. All members of the media and the public are encouraged to attend and watch Gilleon's courtroom circus first hand. This is the guy who called his 9 year old little league player a derogatory name (reportedly a**hole ) in an email that went out to his players' parents of the team he coached in Del Mar back in 2007. He claims he sent it by mistake. He thought he was only calling the kid a ****** to his wife. Guess that makes Gilleon is an expert on defamation. He also has a bad habit of telling bald-faced lies in court. Come watch this soon-to-be disbarred attorney in action! He's a real piece of work, but in 3 years he just cannot defeat Jeff Schwilk and the San Diego Minutemen. World class loser, just like the people who pay him to abuse the court system and attack us. There is also a trial readiness conference this Friday, Feb. 5th at 9:30, D-62. Open to the public. Channel 10 News San Diego Exposes the Joanne Yoon YouTube Video and threats of more lawsuits by this radical La Raza illegal alien activist. Dec 31, 2009Mexico and their agent's desperation is at an all-time high as their amnesty push is failing again. Joanne Yoon denies that this is her in this YouTube video of a young Asian woman named Joanne Yoon saying she is a prostitute, an alien, and a hooker, but her and her attorney Danny Gilleon provide no evidence that it is not her. You decide. Now they are threatening another frivolous lawsuit. Ch. 10 News continues their tabloid reporting, filthy lies, and smear against American activists for Mexico in San Diego. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYtPlFFYu6U SDMM Press Release December 29, 2009 Illegal Alien Activist Joanne Yoon Threatens Another Defamation Lawsuit against SDMM Leader Jeff Schwilk San Diego, CA – Outspoken La Raza activist Joanne Yoon is reportedly filing another lawsuit against Jeff Schwilk according to voicemails left by Michael Chen at Channel 10 News this morning. Yoon, who has been deemed a “public figure” by a San Diego Judge, is apparently upset that there is a video on YouTube of a young Asian woman named Joanne Yoon saying on camera that she is a “prostitute” and a “hooker”. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKafde-ku6k (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKafde-ku6k) . It is not known if this is the same Joanne Yoon who has been stalking and harassing the Minutemen and other political activists in San Diego since our first border watch event in July 2005. This video has been on the internet for at least 6 months and if Ms. Yoon wants to claim that it is not her, she is free to do so, and the public can decide if she is telling the truth. In 2007, Joanne Yoon filed a false defamation lawsuit against Schwilk alleging that he created a spoof website of her which inferred that she was a prostitute for the illegal alien day laborers she was so often photographed with. At civil trial in May 2009 it was proven that Independent Activist Ray Carney acted alone in creating the spoof website. Carney admitted he made the website alone and defaulted on the lawsuit in 2007. Schwilk had nothing to do with it and the evidence proved that. A jury mistakenly found Schwilk liable for defamation anyway for merely forwarding the link to Carney’s website by email to a few key activists for their information. The website was only up for a week and only 3 people total ever viewed it, one of them being Joanne Yoon, as she admitted on the stand. The verdict is being appealed and expected to be reversed by the court of appeals. Ms. Yoon apparently is now accusing Schwilk of making this video or having something to do with it. Anyone viewing it can clearly see that these are young women clowning around on video. Any claims that Schwilk or any other secure borders political activists had anything to do with this video are ludicrous, just like her previous false allegations. Any new malicious or harassing lawsuits will be dealt with aggressively by SDMM’s attorneys. Radical Pro-illegal alien activists must stop abusing our civil court system. Yoon recently lost two seperate court attempts to take money from the San Diego Minutemen for her judgment. Both a Federal Judge and a Superior Court Judge denied her outrageous motions to take money from our secure borders group. - SDMM – The San Diego Minutemen is the largest border security advocacy group in San Diego County. SDMM works tirelessly with law enforcement, local politicians, and the public to secure our borders and fight illegal alien crime, as well as drug and human trafficking in our border region. Press Release - Dec. 14, 2009 SDMM files Criminal Charges against former attorneys Howard Kaloogian and Bob Fuselier CARLSBAD, CA – The San Diego Minutemen have filed Grand Theft charges with the Carlsbad Police Department against their former attorneys, Kaloogian Fuselier LLP of Carlsbad. The criminal complaint filed on Nov. 30 alleges that former State Assemblyman Howard Kaloogian has illegally appropriated and/or stolen approximately $100,000 belonging to the San Diego Minutemen from the non-profit group’s settlement award from Caltrans in late October. The total award check for $157,500 was admittedly cashed without SDMM’s endorsement by Bob Fuselier on October 30 and the balance of their attorneys fees owed ($60,000) withdrawn by them. They have refused to disburse SDMM’s portion of the settlement and have made it clear to the group that they have no intention of ever paying the $100,000 that was meant for SDMM for damages. Kaloogian has not filed any legal claim for SDMM's money. Carlsbad Police detectives conducted an investigation in early December and confirmed that Kaloogian has no legal right to keep SDMM’s money, but they are giving Kaloogian a few more weeks to try to get their alleged claim in front of the court system. If they fail to obtain a court order or pay the group their money, CPD will refer the criminal case to the DA for further investigation and prosecution. Needless to say, our large group of volunteer activists are extremely dismayed that Kaloogian is attempting to pocket the entire Caltrans award plus the $45,000 that they were paid prior to the settlement - $202,000 total! - and deny our non-profit political activist group funds to fight for secure borders, safer communities, and to help elect strong border security candidates to elected office. “We never expected to be scammed and robbed by our own attorneys”, said Barry Shipley, SDMM’s Operations Director who filed the complaint with CPD along with founder Jeff Schwilk. “For over 18 months they promised us a substantial settlement award from the Caltrans discrimination lawsuit, but we still haven’t received a penny in damages, while our former attorneys have taken over $200,000 from this case”. SDMM is pushing the bar association and the local justice system to force Kaloogian to pay us our funds before we must insist on a full criminal prosecution against this unethical lawfirm.

Historic Anti-Amnesty Rally held in San Diego Nov. 14!! La Raza is hoping amnesty is a done deal now that Obama has formally endorsed and promoted it on Friday via Janet Napolitano's speech, but there is no way the American people will allow another disastrous amnesty to pass.

Oct. 6, 2009 On the afternoon of Saturday Oct. 3, SDMM escorted a local photojournalist down to a thick eucalyptus grove at the west end of the tomato field along McGonigle Creek where we observed nearly 20 men and boys in a one-hour period coming and going from what we later found was a field brothel with 2 young women having sex for $30 a shot behind makeshift plastic curtains in the bushes. As always, SDPD refused to come to the scene of the crime and investigate. Nearby neighbors continue to have to put up with dozens of migrant squatters living in their canyon and all the prostitution and illegal activity that goes with it. The question remains, 3 years after SDMM caught similar prostiution in the act nearby, who does Mayor Jerry Sanders work for? He certainly does not work for the citizens of San Diego. What illegal promises has he made to the Mexican Government that allows him and his PD to continue to ignore crime and fire hazards in the canyons and file false charges against American citizens who expose the crime and corruption in San Diego? Ch. 10 News, Oct 5. Great story exposing what we found Saturday. Local resident says the canyon is infested with migrants and criminal activity: http://www.nctimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/article_3c95d497-9db7-5edc-bfaf-3d8c53d58982.html (http://www.nctimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/article_3c95d497-9db7-5edc-bfaf-3d8c53d58982.html) JEFF SCHWILK -- San Diego Minutemen | Posted: Thursday, August 27, 2009 12:00 am The mainstream media, including this newspaper, briefly reported on the murder of San Diego Border Patrol Agent Robert Rosas, who was shot and killed in the line of duty on the night of July 23 near the old border fence in Campo. Agent Rosas leaves behind his wife Rosie, a 2-year-old son, Robert, and an 11-month-old daughter, Kayla. Details have since come out that Rosas was executed at point-blank range with eight shots to his head and body. It appears that he was targeted and ambushed by Mexican cartel hitmen, frustrated that our local Border Patrol had been intercepting too much of their product lately. The shooter(s) have not been caught and are believed to be hiding in Mexico. The Sinaloa and other drug cartels operate freely just across the California border in Mexico and have killed thousands of Mexican soldiers, police and civilians in the past three years in their drug war. Now they are boldly targeting Americans. Few San Diego County residents realize that once you go east of Otay Mesa, our border fence consists of mostly light 8- to 10-foot fencing that is easily breached daily by drug and human smugglers. There are also large gaps where there is still no fencing at all. Cross-border violence is common in East County with rock attacks and gunshots coming from Mexico nearly every day. In Campo, where Agent Rosas was killed, there had been three other shooting incidents from Mexico in the previous two months. The cartel has been also making threats that they were going to get an agent. Because of the almost complete lawlessness on the Mexican side of the border, our border agents are sitting ducks ---- outgunned and outnumbered when they patrol near the fence, or the lack thereof. All of us who have worked that area with our Border Patrol have known that a strike on an American border agent or innocent civilian was inevitable at some point. The double-secure fence that is now complete from Imperial Beach to Otay Mesa, 14 miles long, is a shining example of how our border can be secured when the federal government takes border security seriously. It's an imposing sight and a strong symbol of American sovereignty and security. Unfortunately, that fence does little to secure the other 1,950-plus miles of border with Mexico, most of it easily penetrable by anyone. The secure fence just pushes the problems east, where brave border guards like Rosas risk their lives daily to manage the invasion of crime and contraband coming in from Mexico 24/7 every day of the year. The Border Patrol and millions of concerned citizens, especially those of us living near the border, have been demanding much tighter border security for years now, with only limited response from Washington and Sacramento. Thousands more agents have been hired and a few dozen new miles of tall fencing have been built, but the border still remains wide-open to Mexican drug cartel violence and organized crime, which is increasingly seeping farther into our country and our communities. Until this decades-old and ever-increasing dynamic of free-flowing cheap, illegal labor and massive amounts of illicit drugs from Mexico is dealt with seriously by our elected representatives and the Obama administration, more tragedies and murders at the border and in our cities will continue. RIP, Robert Rosas; may his death not be in vain. JEFF SCHWILK is the founder of the San Diego Minutemen. CHANNEL 10 NEWS, SAN DIEGO - LYING MEDIA WHORES FOR ILLEGAL ALIEN ACTIVISTS AND THE MEXICAN MAFIA ! Aug. 14, 2009Ch. 10 News in San Diego has lost all credibility the past few months, especially in their vicious, vile slander attacks on American activists. They have teamed up with long-time lying propagandist Jim McElroy, Del Mar attorney and local rep for the SPLC and other alien activist goons to spread malicious lies about the San Diego Minutemen and Jeff Schwilk. McElroy is an especially vile paid illegal alien activist and an extremely dangerous individual. He and his group have long been listed as a hate group in California. They have accused Schwilk of having ties to racist white supremicist hate groups, which is laughable considering he is part Hispanic. They have accused SDMM of being a hate group and violent , but provide zero evidence to back up such outrageous claims which is in keeping with the favorite left-wing extremist tactic to demonize their political opponents with smears and lies. For nearly 4 years, the pathetic radical Mexican activists in San Diego, led by Mexican citizen and agent Enrique Morones and his partner in subversion Christian Ramirez, have been desperately pushing the lie that SDMM has ties to hate groups. Of course this is ABSOLUTELY FALSE! We have strong ties to veterans and Patriot Groups, period. www.SoCalPatriots.com. Our members are made up of concerned Americans and immigrants from all over the world who took an oath to preserve and defend the USA. J.W. August, producer at Ch. 10 has been given the truth about SDMM and our political enemies, but he and his cohorts choose to spread malicous lies and slander. Now why would they do that? Who is paying them to spread their filth? Despicable journalism at its worst.The best these anti-American goons and their media whores at Ch. 10 can come up with is that long-time independent anti-illegal activist Ray Carney in Fallbrook has attended a couple of our over 100 rallies in the past 4 years, with the last one being in 2007. He and thousands of other concerned citizens have attended our ultra successful anti-illegal immigration rallies. He has only attended events in his hometown of Fallbrook/Bonsall where illegal alien crime is very high. Carney apparently fixed computers for Tom Metzger in Fallbrook many years ago. The fact that a supposed news organization would then claim that links Schwilk and SDMM to white supremicist groups would be laughable if it wasn't so shameful and SICK!That's it. Carney is not a member of any Minuteman group, never has been, never wanted to be, never will be. CHANNEL 10 News their Mexican sister station Ch. 15 (Azteca): Stop the hate and lies! Spreading false fear and hate in America is treason and the FBI and FCC have been notified. No one believes your sick, twisted propaganda. Your vicous smear campaign has failed, let it go. Americans just want secure borders and law and order in our communities. Demonizing those who lobby for that is, as Nancy Pelosi would say, UnAmerican . CALTRANS SETTLES SDMM LAWSUIT OVER ADOPT A HIGHWAY Aug 6, 2009 San Diego, CA – The San Diego Minutemen reached a settlement in their Federal lawsuit against Caltrans Director Will Kempton, San Diego District Director Pedro Orso-Delgado, and California Transportaion Director Dale Bonner on Aug. 3 at the Federal Court Building in San Diego. The terms of the settlement are as follows: - Payment to the San Diego Minutemen of $157,500 for damages and attorneys fees. - Permanent restoration of the Adopt-a-Highway (AAH) permit for the freeway site near the San Clemente Border Patrol Checkpoint near San Onofre. - Granting of the permit for a second AAH site on Southbound 1-5 near Las Pulgas Rd. This site had been wrongfully denied to SDMM in May 2008. - Full future SDMM participation in the California Adopt-a-Highway Program. - Caltrans will hold a press conference at their San Diego Headquarters to correct the inaccurate public statements that Pedro Delgado made in January 2008 about the San Diego Minutemen when he illegally revoked the political activist group’s permit for the I-5 San Onofre site. “We are very pleased with the settlement which ends the 18-month attempt to discriminate against our political views that began in January 2008 by local illegal alien activists, Caltrans employees, and members of the California Latino Legislative Caucus”, said Jeff Schwilk, founder of the San Diego Minutemen. “Justice and the First Amendment freedom of speech has been fully restored in California from this unfortunate mistake by our state government.” SDMM has been cleaning the San Onofre freeway site regularly and without incident since August 2008 when Judge Hayes granted our injunction to restore our courtesy sign and permit. SDMM is proud to participate in this community service program and we look forward to adopting other highways in San Diego County to help keep our freeways and roads clean. We note that Pedro Delgado announced, also on Aug. 3, that he was resigning from Caltrans, effective Aug. 18. The reason for the timing of his departure announcement coming on the same day as our settlement agreement has not been disclosed. Delgado has been hired by the City of Santee to be Deputy City Manager. He begins his new job in city GOVERNMENT on Aug. 19. #### Reminder to all: SDMM and other mainstream border security groups have absolutely no affiliation with Jim Gilchrist's Minuteman Project or his border subsidiary Campo Minutemen. Aug. 5 Those two groups have been completely rogue from all the mainstream anti-illegal groups in California since 2007, namely the 27 united groups that make up the www.SoCalPatriots.com Coalition.Due to the Arizona murders and other crimes committed by Jim Gilchrist's Border Director and other associates of his in the past few months, we consider MMP and CMM to be extremely dangerous to the to the public, especially on or near the southern border. All activists should stay away from these groups. See full details under the link to the left at Illegal Alien Activists / Enemies.Vetted, cetified groups in the SoCal Patriots Coalition are 100% peaceful and law-abiding polticial activists who comdemn any and all violence and rogue, unsupervised border operations.Unlike CMM and JGMMP, we work WITH law enforcement, border patrol, and politicians to bring about political change and security to our border region.

We will no longer be a sanctuary state and defacto colony of Mexico! Support Chelene and the Constitution Party! MY LATEST LETTER TO NORTH COUNTY TIMES - 17 July 09Help Defeat Amnesty AgainThe push for another amnesty bill is back in Washington, this time led by Sen. Chuck Schumer. Despite the highest unemployment in decades and a border with Mexico that is still open to tons of drugs and hundreds of thousands of illegal crossers per year, Schumer has promised a new amnesty bill by Labor Day (Sept. 7) that would legalize 12 million to 20 million illegal aliens.Poll after poll shows that Americans overwhelmingly want our borders secured and our immigration laws enforced before we legalize millions of people who have violated our immigration laws.The best Web site for the truth about illegal immigration is www.NumbersUSA.com (http://www.numbersusa.com/). At this great site, you can also send free faxes to your representatives voicing your opinion! Millions of Americans have signed up for e-mail alerts during the past few years.The other great group that fights illegal immigration is CAPS (Californians for Population Stabilization). You can also send free faxes to Sacramento politicians at its Web site: http://capwiz.com/caps/home/ (http://capwiz.com/caps/home/).With your help, we will defeat amnesty again this year, continue to gain border security and return our country to a nation of legal immigration and respect for the rule of law and the Constitution.Jeff SchwilkFounder, San Diego Minutemen Rogue Border Activist Shawna Forde Arrested for Double Murder FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 13, 2009 Jeff Schwilk, Founder, San Diego Minutemen SDMM DENOUNCES MURDERS IN ARIZONA BY ACCUSED ROGUE BORDER ACTIVISTS San Diego, CA – The San Diego Minutemen were deeply saddened to learn yesterday of the horrific home invasion and murders of a 9 year old girl and her father in Arivaca, AZ, just north of the Mexican border on May 30. We were shocked, but not surprised to hear that troubled border activist Shawna Forde has been arrested for the murders along with two of her associates. SDMM and other groups have sent and posted numerous warnings about Forde starting in January when she was involved in several violent, suspicious crimes in Everett, WA. She also has been openly advocating violence and 'taking it to the drug cartels' for many months now. All border activists have been strongly warned to stay away from her and her small Minuteman American Defense border watch group. We feared that violent confrontation would occur when they were operating near the Arizona border. We alerted law enforcement in January to the dangers we believed she posed, especially on the Arizona and California borders. Unfortunately, Jim Gilchrist, head of the fringe, exiled group Jim Gilchrist's Minuteman Project , not affiliated with any of the mainstream Minuteman groups, rejected our warnings and continued to support Forde and her border operations and still does according to recent postings on his website www.MinutemanProject.com (http://www.minutemanproject.com/). Shawna Forde was listed on Gilchrist's website for at least a year as his Border Director in 2008 and 2009. He defended her actions and statements and has always promoted her border operations to his MMP members, even as recently as June 7 with a posting his website (which he removed on Jun 14). Now our fears and predictions have come true, tragically, and an innocent 9 year old girl is dead. SDMM hopes that all those responsible for these horrific crimes are brought to justice. There is no room in the secure borders movement for criminals and violence; there is enough of that coming up from Mexico. Our only mission at the border has always been to observe and report . The mainstream anti-illegal immigration groups such as SDMM and MCDC are 100% law-abiding, peaceful observers and political activists calling for secure borders and an end to the mass smuggling of drugs and human cargo into the U.S. from Mexico.

Great, educational reality show! Jan. 19, 2009 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Jeff Schwilk, Founder, San Diego Minutemen San Diego Minutemen Praise Commutation of Sentences for Border Agents Ramos Compean Oceanside, CA – The San Diego Minutemen are glad to see that President Bush did the right thing on his last day in office and commuted the sentences of imprisoned border agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean. While we had hoped for a pardon, and still believe strongly that it was deserved based on all the evidence in the case, a commutation gets them out of prison and back with their families where they belong. Along with other border enforcement advocacy groups nationwide, SDMM has campaigned hard for the past two years for a review of their cases and an exoneration of these outstanding border agents in this overzealous political prosecution and siding with the word of a career Mexican drug smuggler who attacked the agents, fled, and then was observed pointing a gun at them. Today’s commutation is a first step towards restoring balance at the border between the “rights” of foreign criminals and drug smugglers, and the dangerous duty of protecting America and our war-torn border with Mexico and their deadly, ruthless drug cartels. Jan. 4 - Happy New Year! Adios Senor Bill Richardson! La Raza's #1 Mexican Reconquista Politican in the entire U.S. is embroiled in a huge Federal scandal (imagine that!) and has withdrawn his name from Obama's Cabinet. Ouch!

Double ouch! http://www3.signonsandiego.com/stories/2009/jan/04/lz1e4navarre191823-obamas-diverse-government/?uniontrib (http://www3.signonsandiego.com/stories/2009/jan/04/lz1e4navarre191823-obamas-diverse-government/?uniontrib)Let's hope that Obama picks the right guy (or gal) for Commerce Secretary now instead of trying to fill racial quotas. That never works. Just pick the best qualified AMERICAN! The Mexican movement in the U.S. is in total disarray! 2009 is going to be a great year for Americans as we again reject Mexico's outrageous amnesty demands and increase enforcement of our immigration laws to return sovereignty to the United States of America!

Blockbuster stores should begin carrying it in January! Rent it, buy it, see it, share it! Best DVD ever about the Minuteman/Border Security Movement and the truth about the Mexican invasion and drug war on our borders! Dec. 17 - Pro-Mexican Alien Groups Launch new Hate Campaign against Americans! The left wing Mexican Propaganda website http://immigrationclearinghouse.org/2008/12/17/xenophobic-dvd-border-coming-to-a-blockbuster-near-you-not-if-you-act-now/ (http://immigrationclearinghouse.org/2008/12/17/xenophobic-dvd-border-coming-to-a-blockbuster-near-you-not-if-you-act-now/) has launched an attack on the outstanding documentary Border which is now available for rent at www.Netflix.com (http://www.netflix.com/) and for purchase as www.Amazon.com (http://www.amazon.com/). The pro-illegals have launched a campaign of hate and censorship to try to keep Blockbuster from carrying it. As we all know, these left wing agents of Mexico can't tolerate truth or freedom of speech in America! The alien activists have been attacking this movie with lies ever since it was shown in theaters nationwide a year ago. They don't want the public to know about the civil war bleeding over our borders into America from the corrupt, ultra-violent cesspool known as Mexico! FIGHT BACK AGAINST MEXICAN-SPONSORED CENSORSHIP IN AMERICA!Send Blockbuster a message right now and ask them to carry the new award-winning DVD Documentary Border !www.Amazon.com (http://www.amazon.com/) Documented America: The i Word which features appearances by many prominent pro-border security activists and experts including yours truly. www.DocumentedAmerica.com (http://www.documentedamerica.com/) Dec. 14 - Drivers License CheckpointsNorth County cities are now conducting regular drivers license checkpoints to remove illegal drivers! Vista and Oceanside have joined Escondido with agressive new routine checkpoints to cite illegal drivers and impound their cars for 30 days. Oceanside PD impounded 29 vehicles on Dec. 10th and Vista Sheriffs cited 54 and impounded 42 vehicles on Dec. 13. The radical alien activists are going nuts since they know that most illegal drivers on our roads are ILLEGAL ALIENS and they know that if all our laws are enforced against them they might just go back to their home countries rather than pay the penalties for their crimes. We encourage every city in Southern California to conduct these checkpoints to remove unlicensed drivers from our roads, who also commit the majority of hit and run accidents. Immigration enforcement begins in your city with the enforcement of all laws against all residents, legal or illegal. ICE and Border Patrol are playing ever increasing roles in catching and removing foreign aliens. Americans appreciate this new trend towards the rule of law.Call your mayor and police chief and demand these periodic safety checkpoints to catch and remove unlicensed drivers. Dec. 8 SDMM is back online! Took a week off for a little vacation to Arizona (that's in America). Nice to hang out in Joe Arpaio Country where ALL laws are enforced. Hispanics and Illegals don't get a pass on following laws in Arizona just because they scream la raza. That crap doesn't work there - the people there don't put up with that. What a difference from the deep political corruption and open borders garbage here in Mexifornia. While I was gone last week, another of our California Mexican Caucus members had a little problem with the law - specifically Esteban Nunez, 19 year old son of former Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez was arrested for murder in San Diego. Seems the taquito does not fall from the taco cart! What is it with Mexicans in the CA Legislature and criminal behavior? Seems to be an epidemic or maybe they just do like the politicians in Mexico, i.e. whatever the Hell they damn well please (laws? we don't need no stinkin laws!). Anyway, Nunez Jr. is facing life in prison for stabbing a young Filipino student to death in October. Apparently Esteban is a little gangbanger and criminal thug, at least according to his MySpace page. Poor Fabian was counting on a higher political office now that he's out of the Assembly. Fat chance now. Another Mexican Reconquista bitten by the long hand of American law.....what comes around goes around. The open borders goons both in CA and nationwide are starting their push and hoping against hope that Obama can deliver to them the Amnesty for 20-30 million illegal aliens they are so desperate for. Oops, the economy went into a deep recession and millions of Americans are looking for work. AMNESTY IS DEAD! Poor La Raza just can't catch a break. They wanted our country so bad since theirs is now in all-out civil war with the drug cartels. This would be a great time to finish that nice wall with Mexico. Keep the killing and garbage in their county - we have enough of our own. The outstanding documentary Border is finally available at Netflix and Amazon. If you haven't seen it, rent it or buy it! Shocking footage of the murder and rape that really goes on at our border. Also makes a great Christmas gift for that clueless, stubborn relative or bleeding heart friend on your list. This film is guaranteed to wake them up! Nov. 25 SDMM Files Lawsuit Against One Bill Gil Cedillo and La Raza sidekick Joe Coto Federal Judge William Hayes in San Diego ruled yesterday that Sen. Cedillo and Assm. Coto can be added to the lawsuit against Caltrans for the violating the civil rights of our very successful political activist group here in San Diego County. Evidence came to light this Spring that Cedillo and Coto conspired to illegally demand the removal of SDMM's adopt-a-highway courtesy sign on I-5 near the Border Patrol Checkpoint. Judge Hayes also allowed us to add our second requested AAH site that was illegally denied to us by Caltrans in May on southbound I-5. Since Caltrans still refuses to correct their blatant error 10 months later, punitive damages have now been requested in the amended suit. The lawsuit now moves forward. Judge Hayes granted a preliminary injunction in July which restored our sign in the original location and gave us a fresh 5 year permit. SDMM has had a total of 5 safe and successful freeway site cleanups. There are absolutely NO safety issues with our group at that location. SDMM will continue to demand and fight for full and equal civil and Constitutional rights for all pro-America and rule-of-law political groups in California. La Raza and the agents of the Mexican Government will learn to respect the laws in America or they will continue to pay a steep price! Message to Reconquistas and Gay Radicals: STOP THE HATE! NOV 20. The past few months in Southern California we have seen a resurgence in hate rhetoric and hate crimes from Mexican/Illegal Alien radical activists and also from radical gay activists. These two groups have much in common. Both feel wronged by the AMERICAN public who repeatedly says NO to their radical agendas. Both are falsely claiming their movements are civil rights movements. They obviously are not. Both groups are heavy in criminals, deviants, and anarchists who feel they are above the laws of the land. But now their constant whining has morphed into visible hate and are manifasted by lies, false accusations, and threats against anyone who dares to disagree with them.The Mexican Reconquista activists led by Bill Flores, Pedros Rios, Christian Ramirez, Enrique Morones, and Tina Jillings in San Diego County are now attacking police and elected officials with their lies and threats. They used a disgusting smear campaign against Ed Gallo and Sam Abed, and other local officials in the recent election. Now they have the gall to demand that law enforcement stop enforcing certain laws against Latinos! The epitomy of racism and bigotry towards American citizens! For this hateful behavior they want their foreign criminals to be granted amnesty? No way, Jose!Then Last Saturday, Gabriel P., long time Hispanic Minuteman and American Patriot in San Diego was assualted downtown by a violent mob of gay marriage supporters as he peacefully stood up for the will of the voters for Prop. 8, which again defined marriage between a man and a woman. Corrupt, incompetent SDPD officers not only did not protect Gabriel and other counterprotesters from attacks by these out of control goons, they actually arrested Gabriel for fighting when he defended himself from being beaten inside the mob. He must appear in court in January. Thankfully Mike Nifong Aguirre will be long gone by then, but there is still a bounty on the heads of all Minutemen so forces will be pushing for a conviction.Mayor Sanders and Chief Lansdowne have sunk to further lows by allowing and condoning this violence and anarchy in America's formerly finest city. Elected and appointed officials who aid and abet violent criminals belong in jail along with the criminals! We the People of San Diego County say to these elected officials and to the radical gay and pro-mexico activists themselves, STOP THE HATE and the hateful attacks on the citizens or we will stop it by whatever means necessary in accordance with the U.S. Constitution. We will no longer stand by and have our Constitutional rights trampled on by corrupt police and the criminals they support. SDMM IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH JIM GILCHRIST NOV. 18. The staff at the San Diego Minutemen would like to repeat again for the record that SDMM has no affiliation with Jim Gilchrist and his tiny fundraising group, Minuteman Project, based in Orange County, CA. Gilchrist is not a member of SDMM and never has been. Gilchrist was exiled from the mainstream Minuteman/Patriot movement in Nov 2007 when he parted with 85 groups and leaders nationwide and joined the political campaign of Mike Huckabee and his pro-amnesty agenda for 20+ million illegal aliens.SDMM also reject's Gilchrist's latest outrageous comments to the far left wing magazine New Republic dated Nov. 15: http://www.tnr.com/politics/story.html?id=759b5f2b-920d-4ca5-ad97-b922c60266f1 p=1 The public needs to be aware that Jim Gilchrist speaks only for himself and no one else. He is NOT part of the mainstream Minuteman movement, especially in Southern California. HUGE ELECTION VICTORIES IN SAN DIEGO! NOV. 5, 2008 - Congrats and thank you to all the great candidates who ran for office in San Diego County and the thousands of volunteers who helped their campaigns spread their messages of freedom, security, and sovereignty! Numerous ads ran on local TV and print talking about illegal immigration and secure borders! Our message is being spread to every American in our county of 3 million concerned citizens!!- Duncan D. Hunter (now just Duncan Hunter ) won his father's open seat.- Brian Bilbray held his seat from a well-financed liberal challenger.- Judge Jan Goldsmith slaughtered Mike (La Raza) Aguirre for SD City Attorney! Enrique is crying in his tequila. His partner in crime is gone!- Darrell Issa, Martin Garrick, Joel Anderson, and Kevin Jeffries easily held their important seats.- Nathan Fletcher, former Marine and Iraq vet won the 75th Assembly!- Diane Harkey squeaked out a victory in the 73rd Assembly.- Sam Abed held his seat on the Escondido City Council. Unfortunately Ed Gallo lost his seat to Olga Diaz. - Jack Feller held his seat on the Oceanside City Council.- And of course Prop. 8 won big time in SD - by over 8 points. San Diego says no to Jerry Sanders' and gang and their radical gay agenda!GREAT JOB TO ALL PATRIOTS!! YOU ROSE TO THE OCCASION YET AGAIN! OCEANSIDE MATRICULA CARD PROTEST A TOTAL SUCCESS !!!! Sat. Oct 18, the Mexican Government tried to invade another American city in San Diego County to sell their fraudulent ID cards to Mexican illegal aliens. The people of Oceanside came out and said No Way, Jose and we got the police and Border Patrol to come out and oppose this foreign insurgency on OUR soil! As reported in the North County Times, police issued 43 citations, impounded 9 vehicles, and arrested and deported at least one illegal alien. How do you say ouch in Spanish??? Meanwhile, inside the Ebenezer Mexican Church at 141 Canyon Dr, the mex consulate sold over 300 fake ID cards to illegal aliens for $27 each, and then Bank of America and Wells Fargo signed them up for their bank accounts.Then Wednesday (paybacks are a beach), OPD did a checkpoint on Brooks St, less than a half mile from the mexican event in a heavily illegal alien part of Oceanside. They impounded many more vehicles and issued citations to illegal aliens for driving without licenses. The aliens were of course crying that its not fair to enforce laws on them. Waaaaaa.Can't wait for the next event! Hurry back Maria Arnau and your mexican agents!Border Patrol had so much fun last time, they are going to bring more agents out next time! Keep it up Calderon! You want war with the American PEOPLE, you got it! And we play for keeps! Check American history. We do not allow foreign invasion on our territory.The San Diego Mexican Consulate has indicated that the next event in North County will be in November, likely in Vista. The CITIZENS will be there to ensure that American laws are enforced! A DESPERATE MIKE AGUIRRE PLAYS THE RACE CARD IN HIS FAILING CAMPAIGN FOR RE-ELECTION! Sep. 11 - Failing San Diego City Attorney Mike Aguirre is so desperate in his losing campaign to challenger Jan Goldsmith, that he is running around town sceaming to anyone who will listen that the San Diego Minutemen are vigilantes and take the law into their own hands, which of course he knows is a blatant lie. He is so desperate to try to regain the Latino vote that he feels he has to slander the multi-ethnic Patriots to keep the support of Radical Alien activist Enrique Morones and his racist klan. Aguirre has hit new lows after two unsuccessful false prosecutions of activists John Monti and Anthony Porrello. Aguirre should be investigated and prosecuted for his conspiracy to falsely prosecute American citizens on behalf of ethno-centric special interest groups. Aguirre is Hispanic and a member of the La Raza Lawyers Association (which recently endorsed him), another Latino race-based organization committed to defending Hispanics and illegal aliens.Ron Powell at the UT wrote an article on Sep 7 about Aguirre's public whining that Goldsmith has been endorsed by the San Diego Minutemen and his calling for a renouncing or our endorsement. Like all illegal alien activists, Aguirre thinks that screaming racism about a white candidate will get him votes. Our many hundreds of proud, law-abiding political activists in the San Diego Minutemen challenge Aguirre to provide just ONE example of his outrageous claims about our group from the past 3 years. He also needs to explain why he has refused to prosecute numerous assaults on our activists by violent and radical Latinos who oppose border security and American Sovereignty. See list of 28 separate attacks under the General Info tab at left. Mike Aguirre needs to put up or shut up!! Slandering innocent Americans is no way to pander for votes, even for an illegal alien activist like Mike Aguirre!GO JAN GOLDSMITH - honesty, integrity, and the rule of law !! UPDATE, 12 Sep 08: La Raza gets the local free weekly rag San Diego City Beat to fight American activists. Editor DAVID ROLLAND even started a blog on the City Beat website accusing me, Jeff Schwilk, of being a racist for exposing the truth about Senor Aguirre! Another fake journalist succumbs to the socialist agenda of the La Raza agents of Mexico! No doubt the Mexican Government is still paying good money to buy their propaganda in our local media. ALIEN FUGITIVES FAIL TO SURRENDER; ICE ENDS 'SCHEDULED DEPARTURE' VOLUNTARY DEPORT PROGRAM Aug. 22 - 457,000 Illegal Alien Fugitives nationwide (5500 in San Diego) rejected DHS's offer to turn themselves in, once again proving they are CRIMINALS who constantly defy law enforcement and the U.S. judicial system. The alien activists told them to stay here in Aztlan and further defy our courts, so now they will suffer the raids. Only 8 fugitives nationwide turned themselves in for the 90 day compassionate self-deport offer.GO ICE!!! Get all the illegal alien fugitives out of our country and keep them out! SDMM will hold a large pro-ICE rally today at 11am at the ICE Building in downtown San Diego. ICE is doing an outstanding job on the front lines of Homeland Security. San Diego County is a much safer place due to all the hard work of ICE the past few years! ICE is now deporting 1000 illegal aliens (mostly Mexican citizens) each month in SD Co!! 700 of those from the jails as they are released from custody. There have been and will be no Jamiel Shaw tragedies in San Diego County! No doubt many San Diegans' lives have been saved by the hard work of the brave men and women of ICE (35% of whom are Hispanic by the way).If you know of an alien who has been ordered to leave the country, but is still here in hiding, call the 24 hour ICE tip line: 866-347-2423. Let's all help ICE to help us take back our country! Carlsbad Mayor and City Council Approve $2 Million for La Posada Illegal Alien Shelter Aug. 11 – The corrupt mayor and council of Carlsbad approved $2 million in taxpayer funds in Feb. 08 for the expansion and improvement of the men's homeless shelter for mostly illegal alien day laborers at Impala Dr. near the police station in East Carlsbad. This is felony aiding and abetting of illegal aliens with this illegal expenditure of Agricultural Mitigation Funds. So far the city has given the shelter $108,000 for planning for the project. At the same time, the state and the city are about to impose steep parking fees at Tamarack Beach Park to pay for maintenance of the parking lot and park. That money could easily be paid from the Mitigation Fund if they weren’t giving such a huge sum to La Posada which is run by Catholic Charities, a group with a long history of aiding and abetting illegal aliens.Call Mayor Lewis (760) 434-2830 and tell him to obey Federal Laws and stop illegally expending precious tax dollars on illegal aliens and start supporting his citizens! A warning letter was sent to Mayor Bud Lewis by the Immigration Reform Law Institute in June 2008. Click downloads to view the letter. The citizens of Carlsbad and North County are still waiting for the Carlsbad City Government to do the right thing and cancel the illegal and unethical expenditure! SDMM JOINS CAMPAIGN AGAINST PROP. A $600 MILLION BOND (TAX) FOR TRI-CITY HOSPITAL The San Diego Minutemen, San Diego County’s largest anti-illegal immigration group has joined forces with Gary Gonsalves and www.StopTaxingUs.com to defeat the Prop. A mail ballot this week.Prop. A has been rejected twice by North County voters in the past because it places an unfair tax burden on homeowners in Vista, Oceanside, and Carlsbad to subsidize a for-profit hospital that has failed to raise enough revenue to support its operations and desired renovations.Taxpayers are being asked to cover for all the thousands of non-paying and underpaying patients of the hospital, including a known high percentage of poor, illegal aliens who use hospitals as free clinics.“The Federal and CA state governments have allowed and encouraged mass illegal immigration of impoverished “workers” for decades, but they don’t want to pay the billions of dollars in associated costs. It is not fair to force these costs onto the American taxpayers and law-abiding citizens. The 600 plus members of the San Diego Minutemen strongly urge another NO vote on Prop. A. Our Federal and local governments need to deal with and stop illegal immigration in accordance with the United States Constitution”, said Jeff Schwilk, founder of the San Diego Minutemen.
