I am hoping someone can let us know in the Bay Area what are the plans to organize against the Minute Men coming to California? Are there websites? Are there planned actions?
To me, the Minute Men (the vigil antes that have been patrolling the Arizona border) represent the beginnings of the Brown Barretts, the start of a fascist movement that scares me deeply. We have a governor who said Hitler is the man who he admires most, who has invited them to our state. I want to know what are the plans to drive the out of California if they try to come, they are saying they will come this summer. I think this is an absolutely essential that we mobilize mass numbers to confront them and drive them out of our state.

Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out - because I was not a socialist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out - because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out - because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me - and there was no one left to speak out for me. "
