The San Diego Minutemen (SDMM) and related groups are targeting day laborer hiring sites--and the laborers themselves--throughout San Diego County, chasing away potential employers in what they claim is simply a campaign to secure our borders.

SDMM's public line is that they stage protests at the sites to discourage the hiring of "illegal slave labor." However, among themselves, they make it clear that their target is Latino day laborers, period. In an e-mail dated 17 March 2008, sent by Jeff Scwhilk, leader of the SDMM, to an alleged 800-member e-mailing list, Schwilk states, "Time to go home! America does not need day laborers, legal or illegal!" [bold in original].

In the videos presented here, SDMM members and supporters speak and act for themselves. You be the judge. This is just a sample. There are likely many more clips to come, so this site will be updated regularly.
