FALFURRIAS, Texas -- They've been called everything from visionaries to vigilantes. Whatever you think of these self-described night watchmen of the border, the Minutemen seem to be right about one thing:
"It's going to grow, and it's going to surprise a lot of people who were hoping we would go away," one Minuteman says.
They're not going away, CBS News correspondent Lee Cowan reports.
The Minutemen have been trying to expand beyond Arizona, to California, New Mexico and Texas. To prove their increased numbers, they launched what they call a 30-day patrol this month with thousands of volunteers turning out to guard the border in all four states.
