Using a provocative tactic, made famous by the Orangemen in N. Ireland and utilized by the KKK and neo-nazis on many occasions, the Minutemen marched directly down a thoroughfare packed with the very people they target.

The Minutemen numbered about 120 while counter-protesters numbered around 200. I'm sure the reports on numbers will vary widely but the march was handcounted and 120 is the number I have.

A professional crowd counting service hired by a radio station on March 25 estimated the crowd at La Gran Marcha 2006 at 1.7 million. If this is true today's march was almost 15,000 times smaller. Miniscule by comparison. Just a blip.

LAPD numbered around 100. Police presence was heavy and the Minutemen, like the KKK before them, marched with a police escort. The Minutemen acting brave and jovial behind the heavy riot police guard but I'm sure they weren't happy with the way things occurred.

Homeless advocate turned anti-immigrant token black activist Ted Hayes marched arm-in-arm with known migrant hunter Jim Gilchrist. The unusual looking Barbara Coe also marched arm-in-arm with Hayes.

Save Our State leader Joe Turner was not spotted and appeared to be absent from the proceedings.

Another strange turn saw the Minutemen marching with a banner reading "Civil Rights in Mexico".

The counter-protesters were loud and they followed the Minutemen all the way up to City Hall. At City Hall the police line was extended and counter-protesters were not allowed to get near the racist rally was taking place on the steps.

Little by little various Minutemen and their supporters made their way down the hill, across the lawn toward the side where the counter-protestors had amassed. In an apparent error in planning, porta-potties were set up on the other side of the police line right next to the counter-protestors.

Originally dubbed an American Civil Rights March organized initially by Ted Hayes, the numbers of African-American participants on the Minuteman side were very, very small.

Let's be honest, the total of all Minutemen participants was very, very small.

I cannot report on any arrests or serious altercations. Other reports on this site may offer more information on arrests.

Even smaller than the last ANSWER anti-war rally. (That was a joke)

The small Minuteman rally on the steps of City Hall was well protected. The funny thing was that the porta-potties were on our side of the police line.

watchdog aka brooke young

That's Don Silva

I had a blast today. It was good to see so many of you again. Thank you for taking that picture of me in my new Tilley hat. I'll have some video up on my website on Tuesday.

The guy with the beard is Don Silva (aka "OldPreach" on the SOS board)

That one is great! Yes, no country! Country music is ok.

That other sign should read, "Give me soveriegnty. I'll give you death."

Here's another picture of the Minutemen

I Honor the Minutemen, They are brave enough to walk through our white built slums, and stare you us the face. I am supporting them,,, because of the garbage I see on these pages...
VIVA MINUTEMEN!,

Yeah, real brave where you're a bunch of nazi white dudes and their ignorant tio taco kin and you have a police escort in an neighborhood where undocumented people live in fear (of cops and crime) to begin with. REAL BALLS. Do the same march in East L.A. on Whittier or down Pacific Ave. in H.P and see what happens BEEEEEEEEYYYYYAAAATTTTCCCCHHH!

hahahahaha

Hey guys, thanks for the picture. I was worried I got left out. Glad to see that I piss you off. It means I am doing my part in standing up the filth that is Indy Media and Answer LA. Expect plenty of more videos exposing you racist pond scum very soon.

You seem to ask a lot about why Minutemen / SOS demonstrations often require a police escort? Its because you anarchist / communist neanderthals are primitive savages and thugs when in a mob. You don't believe in the freedom of expression guaranteed by the laws of this land and are more than willing to attack peaceful demonstrators if given the opportunity. One on one you are NOTHING and that's been proven over and over again. As if I need to remind you of this. So don't try and compare police escorting the KKK in the 50s to civil Americans fighting for law and order in a society running amok with unwashed, malfeasant slime like yourselves.

y is chelene nightgale(patriotic dream) wearing a shirt with a conferate flag?

Very funny!

However, if anarchy is a harmonious anti-authoritarian society that is based on voluntary association of free individuals in autonomous communities, with mutual aid, and self-governance, what is one to do when an authoritarian government and its’ policies bring in large numbers of individuals who create disharmony in society? Is this the voluntary association of free individuals?

I think he has a righteous blocking concern.

because she's a RACIST!

She posts as "Patriotic" Dream with a Picture of MLK.
What nerve.
MLK one day, KKK the next.

if the above is true, Chelene Nightingale is the proud descendant of ILLEGAL ALIENS. The expression WOP stands for "With Out Papers."

She's a 3rd Generation "anchor baby" . . . one of the worst offenses known to man!

she is talking about quiting the sos.

>>>>chelene: I saw the future of America...felt like falling on my knees and just crying... and came to this forum and felt like a knife was stuck in my heart!!!

Pitiful.

As you can see in a foto on another thread on this site, Chelene/ Patriotic Dream marches down Broadway in a Confederate flag t-shirt.

Then she weeps because she is met with hatred.

The blindness is astounding. I mean, WHAT PART OF BLACKS AND MEXICANS WERE LYNCHED UNDER THAT FLAG DOES THIS WOMAN NOT UNDERSTAND?

She marches down the street SPEWING hatred. She is SO PROFOUNDLY RAICST THAT SHE WEARS A CONFEDERATE FLAG SHIRT AT A SUPPOSED "CIVIL RIGHTS DEMO."

Of course we all know that it was no "Civil Rights" anything, but not only is she TOO STUPID TO KEEP UP THE PRETENSE, but She's also too stupid to worry about giving grave offense to some of the Toms marching with her.

Like, if I was trying to unite with white SOSers (excuse me while I gag) I WOULD NOT WEAR A T-SHIRT THAT READ "LYNCH WHITEY."

And if I DID, I would have the good sense to EXPECT what I would get.

DAMN - nazis are ^%)^# STUPID.

it takes a lot courage to fake an SOS/Nazi demonstration!!!!

thinking about quiting

She has no life outside SOS. Woun not quit. Needs to brush her tangled rats nest har too. Nerve to post pix of MLK while spewing LKlan hate.

Dude, it's a band shirt of Lynyrd Skynrd!
If you look closely you can see it has writing....

She's not a racist and you're messed up for assuming she's one!

It's a totally different shirt liar. Look at the pic and compare. And even if it were the same shirt it would be an awful choice for what was termed a "civil rights march".
