Minuteman Militia Heads to New York

The anti-immigration militia group known as the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps is trying to expand its “border patrols” to the Northeast. The group first made headlines when it sent teams of vigilantes to patrol the Mexico- Arizona border in April. Now the group wants to expand to the border between Canada and New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. The group’s founder Chris Simcox is scheduled to speak on Long Island on Sept. 10. Simcox is the Tombstone, Arizona-based newspaper publisher who issued “A Public Call to Arms” last year. Simcox will speak at the Babylon American Legion Post at 22 Grove Place.
