That's scary.
Just so happens I spent a little time guiding for Steve when he came to the Texas/Mexican border in Sept, `06. A genuinely regular guy IMO. Their were about 25 - 30 of us from all over the US, including the founder of the original Minuteman Project Jim Gilchrist. We inspected just about every mile of the border from Laredo up to Eagle Pass and they guy was pretty pizzed at how the locals had made provisions for just letting the illegals and drug smugglers pass through anywhere they pleased.
