I don't think they really want to be around if that happens...
Cochise County is about the size of Connecticut and Rhode Island combined in terms of land mass, although much less populous.
OTOH, our gun ownership per capita probably rivals most small Nations' Armed Forces.
God help 'em if they start something. Remember the Alamo?
" That's because anybody sneaking across that one likely is a doctor."
If it were only true. Under the guidelines of NAFTA the only physicians allowed to come to the USA are those that teach. The TN Visa does not allow for clinical practice physicians.
Somewhere around this mess I call my house, I have a newspaper from about 15 years ago about two OB/GYNs from Canada who immigrated to Greensboro. They came here because they weren't allowed to buy an Ultrasound machine for their practice. They were willing to buy it with their own money, but permission was denied because the government didn't want to pay for them to use it.
No doubt the MSM was disappointed in such a response.
And for every one that gets caught, it's estimated that 3 get through... you do the math.
I've just been thinking about the strategy of this. The illegal aliens might give up on the Arizona route altogether and start trying to enter other states instead. When that activity increases in other states, more people living on the border will get more determined to help the Minutemen.
As it gets more difficult to cross, the border patrol will have an easier job. Then it gets even easier to catch what numbers remain.
That would be a slow process, however. I hope that in 2008 we will have a mandate. FReegards....
