From the article:
So they parked the van and walked past the fence along the road, not knowing the fence was the park boundary, Simcox said.
What is unclear about a fence, fer chrissake? Only the obtuse and unreasonable men would think that a fence didn't mark a property line.
I fully support what the armed private border patrol is doing in Arizona and I support their efforts to overcome government harassment and opposition to their exercise of their constitutional rights.
You are encouraging anarchy and the destruction of rights.
Ignoring for the moment that fences exist for reasons other than demarcating property lines, the issue in this case is whether Mr. Simcox was specifically informed by sign that he was entering National Park property, where possession of firearms was restricted by law. The requirement for such explicit notice in found both in statute and case law all the way to the Supreme Court.
Chemist_Geek suggests: "You are encouraging anarchy and the destruction of rights."
I see my support as encouraging precisely the opposite.
