Surely, there are other legitimate volunteers willing to cleanup SouthCal’s roadside trash. And I think the minutemen should return to their fudumental values and watch the border as that was what the original minutemen was created for. What the minutemen doesn’t know, is that there are *tons* of garbage at the border away from the highways/freeways that they can cleanup.
