Comment: The militia is not a "Vigilante Group" as baldly stated in this article. The Militia is constitutionally recognized in the 2nd amendment of the Constitution.Of course, Brit reporters still do not understand the details of what actually happened in 1776, the establishment of a truly Free Nation.
Interesting how leftist reporters seek to defame and discredit a genuinely legal citizen based militia movement. DHS doesn't like the militia in New Mexico simply because they cannot control it. Vigilantes ? The militia is not.
I hope the militia movement grows to be 10,000 strong along our Southern Border, then the asinine Donks in Congress will have to change their stupid immigration laws.
Agree if the feds won’t protect us we will.
I'd like to see at least ten times that number. It'll take that many of us to create any meaningful impact on the issue.
If they were vigilantes, the illegals would be dead, or at least badly wounded . . . journalists are dumber than dirt these days.

Sounds good.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bush League Republicans helped write those stupid laws.
They made them difficult to enforce on purpose.
Bush League Republicans want to help the Democrats get a permanent majority through amnesty. It’s the only solution they will consider.
For 2020, the ones up are, Flimsey Grahamnesty, Tillis, Gardner, McSally, Daines, Collins, Cornyn, Capito, Enzi, Rounds, Sasse, Hyde-Smith, McConnell.
They all should have primary challengers.
It does US no good to have a bunch of people wearing R jerseys that still want to pass amnesty and give away our country.
“Hundreds of asylum seekers surrendered to an armed militia of New Mexico citizens last night,”
And they turn them over to the Border Patrol, who gives them medical exams, updates their shots, and then releases them to Catholic social services and distributes them around the country with a solemn promise that they will return for a court date in two years.
Pointless.
Asylum seekers want to get caught. Should have marched them back across the border.
Democrats who wont lift a finger to increase border security against illegals will surely be quick to raise hell about doing something to stop vigilante groups. Hypocrisy and twistid priorities on display.
“then the asinine Donks in Congress will have to change their stupid immigration laws. “
Donks? The Republicans are the problem here. Bush kicked it into high gear for the cheap labor express US Chamber of Commerce, and then Repubs held the house, senate and white house for two years with a safe majority on the supremes. They had all that power and did nothing.
That tells me all I need to know. The problem will never end until we understand that the Republican party is the true problem here.

Militia:
“a military force that is raised from the civil population to supplement a regular army in an emergency.”
An invasion constitutes an emergency.
If there’s no shooting or turning them back before they set foot in the US, then it’s a welcoming committee.
They did not behave like a gang if they surrendered custody of the illegals to duly appointed LEOs. I’d say that they behaved responsibly.
We really need at least two deployments of militia.
One at the border & the other surrounding the Capitol.

This is what should have been going on for decades
Nor are they ‘immigrants’ and least of all ‘asylum seekers’ (they passed THROUGH quite a few ‘safe’ countries to seek asylum within)
Would have rather the militia had apprehended ‘em BEFORE they illegally crossed the border though.
