Gun-carrying civilian groups and border vigilantes have heard a call to arms in President Trump’s warnings about threats to American security posed by caravans of Central American migrants moving through Mexico. They’re packing coolers and tents, oiling rifles and tuning up aerial drones, with plans to form caravans of their own and trail American troops to the border.
Fantastic. Just what we need – Nazi-like paramilitary groups flooding the scene. Kristalnacht here we come!
The Texas Minutemen, according to McGauley, have 100 volunteers en route to the Rio Grande who want to help stop the migrants, with more likely on the way.
“I can’t put a number on it,” McGauley said. “My phone’s been ringing nonstop for the last seven days. You got other militias, and husbands and wives, people coming from Oregon, Indiana. We’ve even got two from Canada.”
Asked whether his group planned to deploy with weapons, McGauley laughed. “This is Texas, man,” he said.
Haha. Haha. So funny. Guns are hilarious, gun battles are uproarious, mass shootings are just the funniest things ever.

Well hopefully their careless stupidity gets them in the of some unfriendly fire from the real soldiers.
Don’t these people have jobs to go to? I mean, if these weekend warriors are that keen to defend the USA from those dangerous immigrants they really ought to be applying to the army.
Nope, these toy soldiers are usually welfare queens.
A tad hypocritical of them, wouldn’t you agree?
At least this will keep them from blockading the polls?
