Baldwin Park - Re-cap for those who didn’t know

Since the Minutemen supporters were attacked in Garden Grove on Wednesday, my post has referred to the Baldwin Park episode. I’ve since received a lot of requests for more information, and after I spent my time answering numerous emails, I decided it would be best to post it all in one place. The following information is a compilation of everything I could find on the Baldwin Park event, complete with photos, video clips, and eyewitness accounts.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

For information on the disturbing Reconquista movement in the Southwest United States, please go here.

To understand who MEChA is, what is Aztlan, and who is La Raza, go here.

To learn how the militant Aztlan movement (also Reconquista) is openly aligned with al Q’aeda and the terrorist Islamic movement (also virulently anti-American and anti-Semitic) - don’t take my word for it, read their propaganda for yourself. It’s pretty sickening. That should give you a good idea of where the whole Reconquista idea came from and where it’s going. Time to wake up!

I first published this article about Baldwin Park here.

When the following photos first surfaced on ALIPAC and SOS, they went under intense scrutiny because the members could hardly believe they were authentic. In fact, many speculated that the photos were Photoshopped and sent to ALIPAC in order to provoke a reactionary response that could then be publicly ridiculed. The research was careful - I was there when it was going on. SOS sent out a member to Baldwin Park to verify the existence of the monument and the veracity of the photos. Once that was determined beyond a shadow of a doubt, the outrage grew becasue the comments are more than passingly Reconquista, and therefore offensive - much in the same way the Los Angeles, MX billboard was offensive. The demonstration arose from SOS’s desire to publicize this monument and its meaning, since all correspondence to the town’s leadership was unanswered. I personally emailed every member on the City Council, and never received a response. For what it’s worth, the contact info of said politicians is included at the bottom of this post.

These are the photos that have drawn this intense backlash in the community:

Judy Baca keeps making the comment that because 'everybody' (whoever that is) had an input, then that makes it okay.

'Everybody' of importance to that time had an input into the death of Native Americans, into slavery---but that didn't make it right.

In Germany, in Russia, in some African states, many people had an 'input' into social affairs of the time (ethnic cleansing to name one) that didn't make it right either.

The mayor's statement is just as ridiculous, that the citizens support the monument. It still wouldn't make it right if they did; and it still wouldn't be right if those that disagreed are long gone, run out by the increasing incidence of third-world conditions.

As Vince said at BP2 to the counterprotesters: "Support the country that is supporting you, that's all I ask."
