My obsession with your country, as you put it, is no greater than anyone else sharing a border with it. I'm debating, as are others, simply the title of the thread topic. I'm not purporting to know more; I'm agreeing with a significant portion of them. The ignorance exposed is not mine.
Now, do yourself a service and go back and read what the "natives who actually live there" are actually saying as regards the "unregulated militias".

I have lived in san diego for 38 years and still do so dont play oneupsmanship about knowledge of border issues.
You provided anecdotal accounts of a few land owners who dont like militias. Great.
However your argument is a non starter because many of them DO want them there or this thread wouldnt even exist because the militias can only patrol on private land and only if the land owner wants them there.
That guy who owns 825,000 acres obviously is wealthy enough to pay private security. Many are not. What is your problem with people exercising their right to protect their property?
