Wednesday, May 26. Yesterday the man who hit four pro-immigrant protesters with his van was released by the police while four other protesters who were peacefully demonstrating their anger toward the anti-immigrant group, the minutmen, are still in jail. Some are detained on bail as high as $50,000 for allegedly throwing bottles of water at the police. Police officers also felt threatened by a person in a wheel chair (I kid you not), and they arrested him without any apparent reason other than being an easy target for arrest.
On television Jim Gilchrist denied the protesters allegations of him being a racist although, on the same day, his friends and allies displayed signs targeting only undocumented immigrants from Mexico—not undocumented immigrants from Canada or Europe.

Minuteman Project Expanding to California? Minuteman Project founder Jim Gilchrist, who describes himself as a "conservative and a left-wing wacko," will address his followers in Garden Grove, California, in what seems to be an attempt to expand his project to Southern California. The meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 25, at 7:30 PM at the Women's Club at 9501 Chapman Avenue, Garden Grove, CA . UPDATE: In response, some pro-immigrant activists have pledged to come there to voice their dissent inside and outside the meeting place at 6:30 PM.

On June 20, 2005, a billboard on Santa Monica Boulevard in Santa Monica, CA is sure to cause controversy. The cause—a graphic image of a shadowy Uncle Sam figure controlling a newscaster puppet. The accompanying headline reads, "Shox News Channel: We Distort, You Comply."
