This guy seems to desire to take the law into his own hands since the "law" is miserably failing (border patrol). Seems to me that he seeks to defend us all against foreign intruders. Many of those intruders bear harmful and illicit drugs. Meantime our borders remain unprotected. Chances are this guy will be killed fighting this war. My wager is that he will be killed by a federal officer unwittingly defending some drug dealer from South America.

If by "this guy" you mean Mr. Simcox, I agree that "the 'law' is miserably failing (border patrol)", but I disagree with your characterization of what he is doing as taking "the law into his own hands". As I've said to others on this thread, the private border patrols are not "vigilantes" nor a "mob", and the service they are performing in making lawful citizen's arrests of illegal aliens and/or reporting same to law enforcement, is in the highest traditions of patriotism and support for the Constitution and the rule of law.
