The cartoon is one of Mikhaela's better ones. I like them when she keeps them simple. You are reading way too much into it.

It has nothing to do with the "Minute Men" themselves. it is about how "Gay Marriage" is under attack!!!!!

Your attempt to undermine the cause of the Minutemen by portraying them as a homophobic fringe group in a cartoon devoid of comic value was unsuccessful in the case of me, an independent liberal. First of all, the Minutemen have taken no stance on the issue of gay marriage. Secondly, it is the expressed policy of the Minutemen that their patrollers of the US-Mexican border not be armed. There have been no shootings nor any instances of violence involving any Minutemen on duty. Maybe you should, as it's said, "take this one back to the drawing board." And next time do your homework. Just because you're drawing an editorial cartoon doesn't mean you are exempt from doing journalistic research.
