Last Saturday a pro-illegal immigration group reportedly "stormed" a VFW post in Campo, CA where the California Minutemen were obtaining food and water. The San Diego County Sheriffs eventually arrived but no arrests were made. Details, photos, and their request for volunteers here. Note that this is a separate group from the Minuteman Project, but that the report is from Jim Gilchrist who was visiting there with a congressman when the attacks occured.

The group was apparently composed of Brown Berets, a self-described militant group. And, those on the left side of things might want to consider the similarities between the anti-MMP groups and scabs.

UPDATE: Originally this post said that Armando Navarro was involved in this protest, based on the information at the American Patrol page. Now, there's a note at the AP page saying that they're not sure he was involved. I removed the bit referring to Navarro pending clarification.

UPDATE 2: The SDUT offers "Border-watch fans, foes raise a ruckus". It describes a video made by the other side as well as local Sheriff Sgt. Radovich saying:

I think Mr. Chase [leader of the California Minutemen] does not want the protesters to protest, but he does not understand that he is a protester also... You have two groups of protesters, and they are all exercising their First Amendment rights."

Chase vehemently disagrees. The SDUT article mentions, but doesn't give a link to, a website of a local resident who claims he was "accosted, assaulted, threatened, and the victim of theft" by the other side. He says that he tried to file a police report but they refused. He also says that the incident was witnessed by "two members of the Channel 10 TV News team of San Diego who chose not to film the event".

I hope the California Minutemen are rolling tape in order to help show who's telling the truth.
