NACO, Ariz. — Dozens of would-be illegal aliens sat huddled in the desert less than a mile south of the U.S.-Mexico border late Sunday night, stopped by a blockade of civilian volunteers protesting the government's immigration enforcement policies.
Invisible in the pitch-black Arizona night, the aliens were detectable only through infrared and night-vision equipment set up by the Minuteman Project volunteers along a three-mile stretch of an isolated border road just east of here.
"I have been sitting here night after night waiting for this moment to come, when people from all across the country would stand with us shoulder to shoulder to send a message to Congress and the White House that if you want our vote, secure this border," said Chris Simcox, one of the Minuteman organizers.
