"Outraged" that Americans want to secure the borders, San Pablo woman goes on a diet
On the fourth night of her front yard hunger strike, Diana Ponce (pictured) lay delirious under the carport, fighting off the chill under a fuzzy blanket emblazoned with the Mexican flag.
Neighbors sat clustered around her on white plastic lawn chairs. Children smacked at a yellow volleyball in the street. Toddlers tricycled past fence-strung banners that read "Tenemos Que Unirnos" -- We have to unite.
Outraged by recent news accounts of vigilante Mexican border hawks, the 32-year-old San Pablo woman took to the streets -- really, her driveway -- on two lawn chairs pushed together. Ponce, a diabetic, is fasting there for a week.

This woman can diet for a long time with no ill effects. It is about time that the anglos, i.e. Americans, started standing up for themselves. The Minuteman Project is a good start.
It sure is, somebody got off their duffs and actually did something.
Yeah, one tiny step...
The time is a bit late for "tiny steps" though.

There are people who would argue that it is too late for big steps.
