"Minutemen" Installing A Private Border Fence..

..in Arizona. Well, at least it ain't with taxpayer money, eh?

From the SF Chronicle article:

"Rancher Jack Ladd and his son, John, were hopeful the effort would limit the illegal immigrants and drug runners who have cut the small fence along the property or just driven over it to cross into the U.S.

" 'We've been fighting this thing for 10 years with the fence, and nobody will do anything,' Jack Ladd said."

Most of the day was dedicated to speeches from politicians and Minutemen leaders and celebrating large donations the Minutemen group has been receiving.

Minuteman spokeswoman Connie Hair said it would take up to three weeks to build the estimated $100,000 fence. So far, the group has raised $380,000 for more border fences, she said.' "

Oh, well private solutions are the best, eh? If you can call this a solution.

This image concocts in my minds a perverted version of "Hands Across America."

I was thinking "ring-around-the-rosey", or "farmer-in-the-dell". Only with guns..
