I love how they use the term “vigilante” - like the folks are stringing them up in the trees.

“Vigilante!? Why no Mr. FBI man - I’m just concerned about all these poor folks out here in the desert. When we see them we give them a bottle of water, a granola bar, and then call the BP so they can be given a ride and treated lawfully.”

I didn’t see them handing out water - but I think that would be nice. An old friend lives down in Tucson and explores. He always has a bunch of water and food in case he breaks down. If he sees illegals he gives them water. Then when he gets to cell-phone range calls in their GPS position.

Dubious choice of descriptors is a time-honored way to smuggle premises. There’s another thread which describes critics of Young Earth Creationism as being “smart-aleck atheists,” smuggling in the premise that questioning questionable claims is juvenile and cutesy. The more I learn to recognize manipulation, the more cynical I get.
