Minutemen fighting over money

Minutemen not watching over funds

A growing number of Minuteman Civil Defense Corps leaders and volunteers are questioning the whereabouts of hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of dollars in donations collected in the past 15 months, challenging the organization's leadership over financial accountability.

Many of the group's most active members say they have no idea how much money has been collected as part of its effort to stop illegal entry -- primarily along the U.S.-Mexico border, what it has been spent on or why it has been funneled through a Virginia-based charity headed by conservative Alan Keyes.

Several of the group's top lieutenants have either quit or are threatening to do so, saying requests to Minuteman President Chris Simcox for a financial accounting have been ignored.

Other Minuteman members said money promised for food, fuel, radios, computers, tents, night-vision scopes, binoculars, porta-potties and other necessary equipment and supplies never reached volunteers who have manned observation posts to spot and report illegal border crossers.

1. Alan Keyes is getting money donated to the Minutemen?

I wonder how all of that works?

2. He has been involved with them for quite awhile now

His high profile is probably worth a lot to them.

approximately 2 weeks ago. I watched it online.

[UTUSN]

17. SIMCOX sez he might have to go to work for WalMart or Home Depot

Let's see: Missing money, can't build a fence------uh, nope, don't meet the qualifications for THOSE two employers.

Let's review the KKKeystone KKKop history of the MinuteMANs:

1- They were shitcanned out of a Vermont town when they had FOUR count-em FOUR Minuteman a-holes on the NORTHERN border to pretend that they are really interested in BOTH borders, not just the BROWN border. They wandered lost in the woods and inadvertantly crossed the border, thereby becoming illegal aliens themselves!!1

2- A couple of months ago, in their Arizona fence-building of ten miles, they were shown on Univision to be using MEXICAN concrete, a neat stack of bags with the HUGH!!1 logo, "MEZCLA CONCRETO MEXICANO."

3- At the same site, the property owner/host requested that they install STEPS OVER the fence, because the immigrants kept tearing holes in it, the steps being for them to CLIMB OVER WITHOUT tearing holes in it. (Cattle getting out.)


But on a SERIES!!1 note: The article says that the complainers departing or being kicked out are the most obvious, overt racists/KKK/Nazis, unable to camoflage their true beliefs. This in inself doesn't alter the fact that the CORE motivation in wingnutism is GREED, and their inability to control it. Worse is that they are performing the purging of their MOST OBVIOUS haters, attempting to paper themselves over with a respectable veneer. (Sorry for all the mixed metaphors.)
