Texas Border Town Mayors Worry
Minutemen Border Fence

Virtual Fence Cameras and additional Border Patrol will Keep Illegal Commerce Growing in Texas Border Towns

According to an interview with Fox News, the Mayor of El Paso and seven other Texas border city Mayors do not want a federal border fence to be built.  Instead, they want the funds to be used to install cameras and hire additional Border Patrol Agents.

Fences keep illegal aliens from crossing the border!
When asked why he did not want a fence, the El Paso Mayor said he was concerned that a fence would hurt business and reduce commerce in border towns. 

Fences do work!  

The Mayor went on to say that he prefers that camera technology be installed and more U.S. Border Patrol Agents be hired, implying that this would look like border enforcement steps were being taken, but would be ineffectual policies to actually reduce illegal crossings—and hence the illegal border commerce in El Paso continues. 

Where Minuteman fencing has been installed it has already reduced illegal crossings by 60%, and stopped all occurrences of high speed drug running along the heavily violated section of the border near Palominas, AZ. 

The Mayor of El Paso seems to agree with the Minutemen, fences work!

But if patriotic Americans don't take action -- QUICKLY -- the new Congress will STOP the border fence and vote for AMNESTY... as one of their VERY FIRST ACTS.

The Washington, DC lawmakers are also considering denying financing for 700 miles of fencing along the border with Mexico, a law championed by Republicans that passed with significant Democratic support...

THEY STILL DON'T GET IT -- the VAST majority of Americans are OPPOSED to giving amnesty to illegals, and support BORDER SECURITY FIRST.

This is what Chertoff means when he talks about a virtual fence.  You cannot see or touch a virtual fence, because it is not really there—it is only virtually there!  But virtually there is perfect for fooling voters, because voters can sure imagine

they are a lot safer if the Congress is talking about a “fence” that the feds have “virtually” built! 

Wow are you confused yet?  Don’t let a virtual fence fool you! 

We need your help now more than ever to truly secure the border.  The Phase Two double-layer Minutemen Border Fence with a 14’ high steel wall, vehicle barriers and a second layer of FOMGuard fiber optic sensors and cameras to pinpoint the location of illegal crossing is well under way. 

We need your donations to raise the more than $300,000 necessary to finish this project.  If you can help and will make the personal sacrifice necessary to have a secure U.S. border, please act TODAY!  We are asking that everyone who receives this email donate at least $50 to generate the funds urgently required to continue our progress on the Minuteman Border Fence.

Minutemen lead the way in getting affordable and effective fencing built, but more donations are imperative for us to sustain our program.  We can only install as much fencing as we have funds to do the job.  Phase 2 continues at the cost of $250/foot, to build a multi-level gauntlet of security at the border proven to deter illegal aliens.  With the first phase completed and Phase 2 under way, your help is urgently needed to replenish our funding and enable us to continue this monumental effort.

Decades ago, President Ronald Reagan said, “This country has lost control of its borders.  And no country can sustain that kind of position.”

This warning addresses a far greater border crisis today than when our President in good faith with the Congress attempted an amnesty in the 1980s, in hopes it would stem the tide of alien invasion.  The results of federal legislation passed in 1986, and subsequent federal border and immigration policies, are a national security and public safety disaster. Send your support now to build the Minuteman Border Fence and show our government what it means to TRULY secure the border against events such as Pearl Harbor and 9/11. Join your fellow American citizens who say “Never Again!”  We the people must be vigilant and prepared, and our national territory and sovereignty must be defended!

Your country needs you now!  We Minutemen and women need you now!  If you are one of the thousands who have already contributed to building the Minuteman Fence, we thank you for your sacrifice—but we need you if possible to redouble your efforts and donate again.  If you have never donated we ask you to join us by making a generous financial contribution AND by becoming a Minuteman Volunteer.

America needs a FENCE!  We have a enormous challenge ahead to raise $55 million.  We urgently need your help for this effort to succeed.  With your contribution TODAY, MCDC can make America more secure by continuing to empower citizen volunteers in their active support of the Minuteman Border Fence.  We CAN show the federal government what border security IS, and how IT CAN BE DONE!

Be sure to send this to EVERYONE you know who wants to help STOP illegal aliens at the border! Thank you!

Sincerely for America,

Chris Simcox, President
