That IMO is where the battle needs to be waged, and the border groups need to be acutely aware that their opponents are waiting to pounce on the SLIGHTEST misstep, as this incident aptly demonstrates.

Who cares about image! But they can't take away our rights! What part of 'shall not be infringed' don't they understand? Traitors!

There. I think my impression of the politically-tin-eared, mouth-breathing libertarian FR poster is spot-on.

There are two battles in this situation - the battle of the border groups against immigration, and the 2nd A issues of the Park Service guidelines. The border groups, since they are formed to combat illegal immigration and the lack of enforcement against such, need to focus on that particular issue, and not give their opponents PR ammo to use on the brain-addled voters who probably think the 2nd Amendment is the name of a new boy band. If you don't like the Park Service regulations prohibiting what you and I would consider to be the lawful exercise of 2nd A rights, then I suggest you engage in the level of effort to combat those regulations that the border groups are engaging in to combat illegal immigration, so they can focus on their particular mission.

Actually, you just did a dandy impersonation of someone oblivious to modern political realities.

Well, the gun-grabbers have us walking on egg shells. Millions of illegals stream across the border every year. Mixed in are probably Al-Qaeda types desperate to get their 72 raisins.

Simcox is doing a good thing considering the fedgov doesn't care about doing it's Constitutional duty.
