Border Patrol told to stand down in Arizona

article

U.S. Border Patrol agents have been ordered not to arrest illegal aliens along the section of the Arizona border where protesters patrolled last month because an increase in apprehensions there would prove the effectiveness of Minuteman volunteers, The Washington Times has learned.
More than a dozen agents, all of whom asked not to be identified for fear of retribution, said orders relayed by Border Patrol supervisors at the Naco, Ariz., station made it clear that arrests were "not to go up" along the 23-mile section of border that the volunteers monitored to protest illegal immigration.

In short, it looks like the Minutemen project was wildly successful. However, many idiots think it would be a bright idea to have an "immigrate now, registerr later/never" policy. I think that it may be about time for sizable donations to be sent to the Minutemen, or a similar group, and allow them to act as permanent border guards. That would get Congress of its ass. Anyway, it's great to see some acknowledgement that the Minutemen did a good job.
