Because the Federal Government is embarrassed by their own lack of incompetence and proper enforcement of the borders is NO reason to deprive US citizens from defending themselves from an Illegal Invasion.
"I simply do not believe that this whole ordeal is anything but the Liberals attempt to obfuscate the laws that we have in place and that are enforced by the Federal and Local Law Enforcement Agencies that already serve our area. If the Minutemen were true Patriots they would offer us the same 24 hour a day 7 day a week, EVERY single day of the year that the Border Agents who work here give."
You couldn't be more wrong.
And it is the obligation of the U.S. Government to provide 24/7 protection and enforcement of the border.
They have failed to give the BP adequate resources, while the President has given the issue minimal priority. THIS is the fact of the matter.
"I submit that the group was organized by Liberal Californians with an AGENDA. What gives anyone the right to inflict their paramilitary operations on someone's hometown (MY home)?"
You're entitled to your own opinion, no matter how misguided it may be.
It appears because the matter is taking place in YOUR hometown, that IT is your overriding factor in demonizing and mischaracterizing the entire citizen-watch operation as "paramilitary."
"Would you stand by if we came to your home and caused trouble then ran back home breaking our arms patting ourselves on the back for the rest of our lives because we came to your home and conquered your local citizens and left our trash behind and defecated in shallow holes all over your parks and public lands (in public of course)."
And what kind of condition are the Mexicans leaving the border towns? In shamble from eyewitnesses. They aren't even "digging shallow holes."
"Before you say, that's an ugly pair of shoes on my feet, maybe you should walk a mile or two in them first. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you, this battle is not between you and the Mexicans or you and the people here, you will be battling the US Gov. We have the right to enjoy our homes, and the right to defend ourselves from a group of anarchists and vigilantes."
We have enough people at FR of whom know well what "this battle" is about, who is responsible, AND what is at stake.
It seems you are the one in support of "anarchy" and the illegal invasion from those who ignore and respect the border of these United States.
Amusing and clueless.
