“Asylum-seeking migrants” don’t try to sneak across the border; they’re supposed to report to authorities at established points of entry.
Does anyone here know if this group is volunteering or sponsored? I’d like to know if they are worth supporting or not.
They need to stop them, by using the bullets, instead of “at gunpoint” and then use the bodies to build the wall. Sometimes, you have to send a message that can be understood in any language.
Militia groups are usually pretty small and cell like since they came under intense suppression operations after OKC. It’s hard to make an informed judgement on whether to support or not.

They are illegal immigrants, not combatants.
Nothing would turn public support hard to the left, and pro illegal immigrant like shooting a bunch of “poor, pitiful immigrants just looking for a better life”.
Your timeline is way off.
Actually OKC was a reaction to Clinton Storm Trooper tactics relative to religious cults and militia groups.
Monumentally stupid suggestion.
Which one should the governor be representing? The illegals or her citizens?
Naaa it has nothing to do with a timeline the reaction to OKC forced the militias to go underground or at most fly under the radar. The FBI penetrated there organizations a carried out sabotage operations to bust them up. It took many years for them to recover to the point they are now coming out.
But there is another type of militia that has emerged recently that cooperates with the government on the border. They augment state and federal officers. Here is an example.
McVeigh and Nichols launched the OKC in revenge over the raid on the Branch Davidians, Ruby Ridge, and other similar operations.
This video was produced in 2012 right before the Election where Romney was running against Obama at the time. A lot of interesting things about this video that gives a lot of insights into what the entire immigration battle is about!
“at this point, what difference does it make?”
Even if “detained/arrested”, they just get turned over to BP/ICE which currently has NOTHING about deporting anyone. Its all just first step to getting gibs and permanent legal status, and even if “not legal” NOTHING happens.
This is ALL on Trump. There shouldn’t have been anything for these guys to do after Feb 2017. There should’ve been “changing of the guard” ceremony where Trump thanked these guys for “holding the line” and then a bunch of regular US Army and NG units would officially get their orders.
Trump is first real Clown POTUS. Not even Obama was this Clown, ever.
Not really. Partly - for sure. It’s the judges (mostly district courts) blocking most of what little Trump attempts to do, as well as what was already on the books years before he came into office. Take the IIRAIRA for example, passed while Clinton was president, it has what most normal Americans would call sensible border enforcement, i.e. Aliens are fined for attempting to enter, those already here illegally cannot attempt to come again for ten years and most importantly, INS (disestablished in 2003, also a part of the problem it that it’s split up between three agencies, ICE, Customs and Border Patrol and US Citizenship and Immigration) agents could decide an illegals case without judicial oversight, freeing up the backlog that allows the judge to give the illegal a court date, which 90% don’t show up and are never seen again (until they kill someone, are arrested and given deportation orders, which they also don’t abide by). Courts basically say now we have to review every case individually, they can’t even be told to stay in Mexico while we process their fabricated asylum claims. They rush the border agents, allowing the drug runners and smugglers to pass while the agents are busy processing them.

How do Trump supporters cope with the fact that Obama deported more illegals per year than Trump ever will?
The key hear is that Obama did it without anyone knowing. Rhetoric doesn’t mean shit if you don’t follow through.
Trump only deported around 260,000 last year while Obama consistently averaged around 350,000. He even deported 420,000 in 2012.
Nobody blocked Obama’s policies. Under Trump, half the Democrats are trying to abolish ICE and all their judges are blocking everything. You know this.
Bullshit. Obama dumped illegals from our prisons and counted turnarounds at the border as “deportations” to inflate his numbers.
Crossings dropped off to record lows after Trump’s election but between the growing economy and the courts constantly undercutting his immigration policy they are back up to near record levels and family units crossing illegally are far beyond previous records.
We elected a president, not an emperor and he has to act within the law.
Unfortunately it takes time to work the cases through the courts to the SCOTUS level where they will be resolved in his favor but until then he has to operate within the bounds of both the statutes and the lower courts rulings.
Obama made up the data by falsely inflating his numbers counting turnarounds as deportations which had never been done before.
