Man: you are way off base with me. I have no objections to citizens trying to stop illegal imigration. I dont care what flavor they are if they join you I dont believe you will have many cops joining you. I like the idea, I am saying you guys are setting yourselves up to get in some deep trouble and I urge caution. Your stopping illegals doesnt piss me off at all. I just dont want fellow Americans standing behind bars for Vigilate actions.

What in the world makes you think these people are acting as "Vigilates"? Because they are attempting to show America what a poor job the BP is doing?
Try to get this picture in your head.
1000 illegals come across the border in a four to six hour time span. Now the BP is out of resources and the next 4000 continue on unabated to American cities.
Got that? Okay, most of America doesn't. What are they going to say when video tapes show them the normal course of events every night?
Hopefully they will call their Congressmen and demand that a few thousand more BP Agents be immediately assigned where they are needed.
The potential for a serious mishappening is if the observers should be discovered by a group smuggling drugs and shooting starts. Hopefully the UAV's and aircraft will be able to keep the groupd separated.
I have known a few of the men who have been doing this type of activity for a few years now. They are nothing more than observers as the illegals pass their stationary positions. (Not one of the men I am in contact with has been anywhere close to even drawing their weapons.)
A call to the BP allows them to station their agents where the illegals are expected to join at the highway for transportation further inland.
The field agents appreciate the assistance from the locals because it allows them to be more effective. Management, well that's a different story.
The President authorized another 200 agents and then funding was given for 200. Who is bs'ing the Americans? Yes, the White House is.
It is going to be a shock to the system when America sees on video just what is happening down on our borders. This is a problem that can be corrected with a few hundred more agents, not shoot outs.
"I just dont want fellow Americans standing behind bars for Vigilate actions."
Funny......
A neighbor sees a burglery in progress and calls 911 and all is good, thats just a neighborhood watch.
An American sees someone breaking into the country and dials 911 and they are a racist vigilante.
Real funny.......
