San Diego voters: Congressional candidate (R) under investigation in AZ
Advertisements [?]
Part of the 'Minute Men" group help an illegal against his will, gave him water, $20 and a tee shirt printed up with:
Bryan Barton Caught an Illegal Alien and all I got was this T-shirt then took his photo with the tee shirt.

<snip> PALOMINAS - Cochise County officials said they are investigating two Minuteman volunteers after an illegal entrant complained Wednesday to authorities that he was held against his will.

<snip> One of the men paid the illegal entrant $20 and gave him a T-shirt to hold up while he filmed the encounter. The T-shirt read: "Bryan Barton Caught an Illegal Alien and all I got was this T-shirt," said Carol Capas, spokeswoman for the Cochise County Sheriff's Department.

<snip> Critics said the encounter is the first sign that the Minuteman Project is a "sham" meant to humiliate illegal entrants.

<snip> The incident started Wednesday afternoon when Barton, 24, and a second Minuteman volunteer encountered the illegal entrant on Arizona 92 near Palominas, Capas said.

Gee, sounds like a young punk to beat, this Bryan Barton chap. DO let the rest of us know how his campaign goes. ;)
