== Renunciation by Minuteman leader James Chase == 
 I also have removed the section "Renunciation by Minuteman leader James Chase" because it unbalances the article to the left-side and has a heavy liberal viewpoint. There were no sources or citations of any of these allegations and I felt that a single person does not have the authority of wrongly stereotyping the Minuteman Project.   

 *"I cannot continue in any way, shape or form in a relationship with Minuteman Civil Defense Corps or even Minuteman Project...James Gilchrist wanted to skin Chris alive but then they went to Washington and picked up the two DC crooks Mary Lewis [Gilchrist's congressional campaign manager] and Connie Hair [official Minuteman Project spokesperson] and the corruption machine was off and running. Now Mary is even allowing the Nazi party into the campaign and they refuse to remove Ranch Rescue, Andy Ramirez and Cliff Linquist from their links. So you have an absolute CON man Andy in your ranks sucking many thousands of dollars away from the cause. I have standards of right...sending email and letter requests for money to all of our people, even to my grandchildren, sisterinlaw, and distance English exstep mother is just without all Class or regard for civility. I am sad that some of you are so desperate, so gah gah, over what was a super lightning rod for antiillegal immigration that you refuse to see that ethics and honesty is above all. May the Lord Open your eyes to see and your nostrils to smell the manure before us."   
 *Mary Parker Lewis managed Gilchrist's congressional campaign. Hair is the official Minuteman Project spokesperson.  
 *Chase posted a similar disclaimer on his California Border Watch website, notifying his members and the public of the split in the Minuteman ranks.  
 *In December, 2005 James turned over leadership of the California Minutemen (CMM) & the Border Watch Federation (BWF) to his son, Mike Chase.  	  Recruits, operations and the influence of the California Minutemen expanded rapidly, and the N. County Times bitterly complained of Mike Chase's appointment to the political steering committee of California Senator Bill Morrow's campaign for the 50th District Congressional seat vacated by Randy "Duke" Cunningham.  	   
 *As reported by the Associated Press on January 27, 2006,  Chase's California Minutemen successfully stopped a program sponsored by HumaneBorders.org and the government of Mexico to supply over 70,000 maps to illegal aliens to aid their unlawful entry into the United States. Faced with the knowledge of several Title 8 United States Code section 1324 prosecutions in the United States, including from similar groups such as NoMoreDeaths.org, along with the fact that thousands of Minutemen now openly roamed the American border lands 24/7, the volunteers and Mexican government decided to suspend the program. Miguel Angel Paredes, a spokesman for Mexico's National Human Rights Commission said "This would be practically like telling the Minutemen where the migrants are going to be" and as such, they'd have to "rethink this". 
 There is quite of bit of material here. Though I agree the writing is poor, there are several sources and facts which appear worth salvaging. Did one of the founders, James Chase, denounce the group and leave it, forming a break-off group? Is this map issue noteworthy? Were there complaints about a leader of the Minutemen serving on a political campaign? We should establish if these are facts and add them back to the article if they are verifiable. -  

 I have found a source for some of these statements, though it is from Chase's organisation's own website. http://www.borderwatch.us/ca/ (click on "about us"- i can't directly link to the section). I see no reason why a section (carefully written to avoid POV) about Chase shouldn't be added, but will leave it a couple of days to allow people to comment here, as it does seem to have caused a lot of argument in the past
