HOUSTON, Texas -- The organizer of this weekend’s planned protest to shut down international ports of entry have a message to militia groups – You are not welcome. This statement came in response to a Breitbart Texas article about police agency preparations for the protest planned for the weekend.

In an interview with Breitbart Texas, Staysi Barth, organizer of “Shut Down All Ports of Entry”, said militia groups are not welcome at the national event planned for this weekend across the southern border of the United States. “Only peaceful protesters are coming,” Barth said.

After fighting with the problem of the open border for years and the negative impact she claimed illegal immigration is having on her home state of California, it was Mexico’s imprisonment of Marine Corps Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi that moved her to take this step of shutting down the international bridges. “Tahmooressi served our country and our leaders are just leaving him behind,” she said. “By blocking these bridges we can cause economic disruption that can force the government to take action.”

Her organization’s website boldly puts forward a travel advisory: “Please be aware that traveling across the US/Mexico border will be impeded, beginning on September 20, 2014, with no designated end date.”

Responding to claims in the media that militia groups are participating in the action, Bart said, “saying the militia groups are participating only puts our peaceful protesters in danger. This protest is for average Americans who wish to air their grievances.”

On her website, Barth describes herself as a 41-year-old disabled housewife with three children. She states she is a “very proud American” with no affiliations with any groups including political parties and militia.

“I have been in constant contact with Homeland Security, CBP, State Police, Highway Patrol, Border Patrol, Sheriff Departments, etc.,” Barth wrote. “They know we are coming and they know we are coming in peace.”

The event is scheduled to take place along 25 ports of entry on September 20th at 8 a.m. PST (10 a.m. CST). “This is not going to be a one-day event,” Darth wrote in the guideline. “This is meant to be a peaceful standoff between American Patriots and those who seek to destroy our Constitution and Sovereignty. We will be there as long as it takes.”
