These people are morons. I have absolutely no clue as to where the idea of untrained civilians protecting our borders in the year 2006 came from. As someone who does volunteer my time to causes, I have to ask myself if these people could posibly find somewhere better to devote their free time. Did you know that 750,000 Americans are homeless on any given night, and over the course of a year as many as 2 million people experience homelessness for some period of time? I did because I devote some of my free time to helping people, not acting like an idiot.
Edit: vigilantiesm is for Batman. Are these people Batmen? I think not. If you want to protect our borders, vote accordingly next time or go fill out an application for INS.

Why is it bad to uphold and defend the constitution when the government won't? Besides, they don't need to be trained because they aren't really enforcing laws or protecting the borders anyhow. All they are doing is reporting the illegal activity to the border patrol. As far as I know they haven't made any arrests. What is wrong with that?
Not every cause has to be as noble as helping the homeless. They may have different ideas than you do as to what is more important. That's not to say helping the homeless is bad at all, it's just a different issue. I'm sure time people spend watching TV or playing video games could be better spent as well, however at least they are getting involved.
BTW who would you vote for to protect the borders anyhow? My best guess would be the Constitution party or Libertaring party perhaps. Definetly not Republicans.
