FULL TITLE: Trump's army: More than 300 asylum seekers surrender to armed militia of 'New Mexico residents, veterans and ex-cops', after crossing the US border
Hundreds of asylum seekers surrendered to an armed militia of New Mexico citizens last night, after trying to cross the U.S. border.
A group of 300 men, women and children gave themselves up to the 'United Constitutional Patriots', a gang of vigilantes who claim to be made up of veterans and former police officers, who then handed them over to border officials.
Video recorded by one of the militia, Jim Benvie, who has been camping out on the New Mexico-Chihuahua border for two months, shows the asylum seekers walking on a dirt road having crossed through a fence gap in Sundland Park, New Mexico.
The emergence of the vigilante group comes amid a boom in asylum seekers aiming to make their way into the U.S. through New Mexico, and the El Paso sector.
In 2018, Border Patrol stopped 162,000 people in the Rio Grande Valley.
None of the eight other Border Patrol sectors on the Southern border have experienced anywhere near those figures, as the graphic above indicates.
However, El Paso, where the 300 asylum seekers were filmed, has seen a significant spike in the past year, as other corridors in the U.S. are explored.
In October and November of 2018,as the average number of apprehensions grew, El Paso's share doubled.
The video, which was streamed live on Facebook, shows the asylum seekers giving themselves up to the militia, intending to turn themselves over to Border Patrol.
'I literally walked out and I looked, and all I saw was hundreds of people coming at us,' said Benvie.

I can remember when folks were given time-out around here just for posting article links about the minutemen.
FINALLY! if our federal government won’t defend our country, then Americans will just have to step up and “do it ourselves!”

And the ACLU will ship busloads of Ivy League lawyers down to make sure you’re convicted of civil rights abuses. I wonder what America would be like if the Russians nuked NYC and DC? Would we survive as a nation? Just kidding!!!!
Will talk to a friend who is a former border agent and see what a person is legally able to do
Bttt.

That is what we are and I are loving it!
With all due respect. Exactly “what are we” and why “I are loving it?”
The abbreviated name for them is "Congress."
Just thought about the 11th Virginia militia. I wonder if it’s still operational?

Unfortunately “surrendering” plays right into their game. They will be taken to a shaded processing area, given water, and then the paperwork starts that begins their legal foot in the door, and they know it.
Were they deported?
Were they arrested?
Were they free to leave once the Border Patrol took them to a destination?
I want to know HOW MANY HAVE BEEN RETURNED TO THEIR COUNTRIES.
All these numbers...three hundred thousand, one hundred fifty thousand, seventy thousand...
Did they leave the US????? that’s what I want to know
The U.S. military is protecting countless borders around the world but our own. It’s disgusting when it comes down to a militia of patriots when this can be stopped immediately by this government.

That’s great, but maybe they should camp out directly at the hole in the fence, so they never wet foot on American soil?
Never SET foot.
Good idea!

Exactly, this is nothing more than a tactic to circumvent the undedureablook e possibilities of transiting dangerous terrain.
We are being played, and it is all due to loopholes in our current and feeble immigration policy.
All these thousands of kids not in school. No one ever talks about that.
