President Bush calls them "vigilantes," but supporters say they're trying to protect America from "an invasion."I think that's stretching it a bit.

Yes, calling them vigilantes with the modern negative connotation is stretching it.

Think invasion is too strong a term? Check out the Ranch Rescue web site. Over 180 documented examples of the Mexican Army crossing the border. In some instances they ENGAGE American citizens and USBP personnel. There are thousands of Mexican troops on the border right now, and these guys make a handsome living on the side by helping the narcotrafficantes cross the border, in some instances by laying down SUPPRESSIVE FIRE across the border or firing at USBP helicopters. USBP is instructed to avoid confrontations and exits the area, allowing for the drug laden trucks to enter the US unhindered. Add in the Mexican sentiment that we are illegally squatting on historic Mexican property (Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Southern Colorado)and it takes on ominous overtones.
