Cult Watch Title: AZ-Based Border Minuteman Group Calls It Quits The Minuteman Civil Defense Corps is no longer. The Arizona-based border watch group that burst onto the national scene in 2005 sent an email to its members this week announcing the corporation has dissolved. The group’s president, Carmen Mercer, of Tombstone, said she and the board’s two other directors voted to end the group’s five-year run because they were worried her recent “call to action” would attract the wrong people to the border. On March 16, Mercer sent out an e-mail urging members to come to the border “locked, loaded and ready” and urged people to bring “long arms.” She proposed changing the group’s rules to allow members to track illegal immigrants and drug smugglers instead of just reporting the activity to the Border Patrol. “We will forcefully engage, detain, and defend our lives and country from the criminals who trample over our culture and laws,” she wrote in the March 16 e-mail. Mercer said she received a more feverish response than she expected — 350 personal e-mails she said — and decided the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps couldn’t shoulder the responsibility and liability of what could occur, she said. “People are ready to come lock and loaded and that’s not what we are all about,” Mercer said. “It only takes one bad apple to destroy everything we’ve done for the last eight years.” The group formed as Civil Homeland Defense in 2002 and later became the Minuteman Project in April 2005. The named changed again to Minuteman Civil Defense Corps.

#3. To: Murron (#1) Damn so does this mean Catholic hunting season is over? ----------------------------------------------------------- #4. To: Murron (#1) Mel, where the hell are ya girl? It's all BS. They were shutting down lasst year and simply kept going a little bit longer but the money has all dried up. You can always visit Simcox's senate page and donate so he can pay his bills! lmao Click if you want the truth. Click here for an important video message If Con is the opposite of Pro does that mean Congress is the opposite of Progress? #5. To: mel (#4) You can always visit Simcox's senate page and donate so he can pay his bills! lmao Oh puleeeeeze..you know I'll rush right out and do that! &;-)
#6. To: Murron (#5) lmao - I found it humorous that he states right on his page that he needs people to send him money to pay his debts. Then I noticed the man (I use the term lightly) has not made any donations what-so-ever to any candidates at all. Click if you want the truth.

The two-bit hustlers had his 15 minutes, he tried his hand at politics, he blew it, and now he's out to latch on to anyone that'll keep his name in the news, anywhere the money might be.
#8. To: Murron (#7) Haven't you heard? He's the main man for Hayworth now. lmao Click if you want the truth.

He's the main man for Hayworth now. lmao Yeah, that's what I meant, he's latching on to others, riding their coat tails so he can keep in the spot light. Maybe if Hayworth would just take a moment as see Simcox for what he is, he'd shake him loose, could cost him votes if he doesn't, people don't forget so easy who it was that conned them...I think the tin-horn is a liability, not an asset!
#10. To: Murron (#9) I'll be very surprised if Hayworth beats McCain. If he does, I'll raise a toast just as I did when Dashle got his goofy ass fired in 04. my anti groupie can't get through life without me. #11. To: Badeye (#10) If he does, I'll raise a toast just as I did when Dashle got his goofy ass fired in 04. And I'll do the same...
