The U.S. Border Patrol this week reportedly told Texas landowners along the U.S.-Mexico border to prepare for a possible influx of "armed civilians" on their property as the migrant caravan moves closer to the U.S., a report said. The Associated Press reported that these civilians say they intend to support the National Guard and Border Patrol to prevent the illegal migrants from crossing into the U.S. ************** Three activists told the AP they were going to the border or organizing others, and groups on Facebook have posted warnings about the caravan. One said it was “imperative that we have boots on the ground.” Another wrote: “WAR! SECURE THE BORDER NOW!”

Ha! The Texas landowners ARE the armed citizens. The invaders had best watch their Ps & Qs or they're gonna get some S&W.

Oh, I’m sure CNN will be howling that they are White Supremacists coming to kill everyone and enslave the black and brown folks.

Also- TOO many ranchers of Texas-N Mexico- and Arizona have been threatened or harmed or killed due to the traffic of the illegals & coyote drug runners.

PAYBACK is coming........

Invited onto private property is a good thing. Armed citizens trespassing on private property is not a good thing.

Yes, and many of the local constabularies in rural areas will look the other way if the locals shoot, shovel, shut up.

Corrupt liberal ‘elites’ trying to gin up the crazies to get the dead children photo op they’re looking for...

Conservatives need to stay away from the borders and let the military do their job.

Any ‘conservative’ moving in that direction is a tool of the far left...

And on that flat featureless landscape the invaders will possibly learn just how more deadly a scoped hunting rifle is than an AR-15.

We all know these people are gonna just walk right in, theres nothing to stop them. So-called law enforcement(what a joke!) let them in, the border patrol patrols alot and lets them walk right in, the cops in your town wont arrest them, and you wife and kids say ‘let them stay’ no matter the diptheria they will die of. Nothing is stopping them, nothing. It’s more kibuki theatre from a government that cares more about Iraqs’ borders than its own or the safety of it own people. Its an outrage, but no one really is outraged because theyre no allowed to be, like sheep. The only real Liberty left is a deep and abiding, personal Liberty, the kind that knows right from wrong, we cant depend on others, ever.

As citizens they have the right to detain persons thought to be committing a crime.
