A couple of years ago, I might have supported the idea, but now with the Airsoft Grads of the Open Carry Texas movement acting childish, I&#8217;m sure they see this as an opportunity to strut around with their loaded long guns slung over their backs in front of cameras.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cCBP appreciates the efforts of concerned citizens as they act as our eyes and ears. Securing our nation\u2019s borders can be dangerous. Interdicting narcotics and deterring and apprehending individuals illegally entering the U.S. requires highly trained law enforcement personnel,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Patriots Information Hotline, there are 4 credible militia operations on the ground currently in Texas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe only have contact with one. We hold an open invitation for all active or potential groups on the ground to contact us for any help we have to offer,\u201d the website said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of course, I fully support their intent &#8211; the federal government isn&#8217;t doing their job and Americans have the right to make their views known on the subject. But, only to the limit of being eyes and ears for the law enforcement officers. If they use their guns for personal protection, I understand that, but when they start trying to force the will of illegal immigrants and start waving their guns around like they&#8217;re at the OK Corral, that&#8217;s where they&#8217;ll lose me. <\/p>\n<p>The federal law enforcement officers also have the responsibility to respond to citizens&#8217; reports in a timely manner, largely to protect the US citizens from themselves. This has the potential for being very, very dangerous.<\/p>\n<p>But, yeah, this is totally the Obama gang&#8217;s fault for not responding to the situation while doing their level best to hide details of the crisis from Americans&#8230;you know, like they do for everything else that has happened in the last five years. Well, them and their willing accomplices in the compliant media.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Washington Times reports that that an &#8220;armed militia&#8221; of the civilian variety are setting up &hellip; <a title=\"Militias show up at border\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=53655\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Militias show up at border<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-53655","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-illegal-immigrants"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53655","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=53655"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53655\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=53655"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=53655"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=53655"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
