    All this shit keeps going because they didn’t arrest all those morons taking over the wild life refuge years ago. It encouraged this crazy take on us military ideology. This is going to end very badly one day.

    should be pretty easy to round up and incarcerate if they coagulate like that

      That relies on the government actually doing something to stop them. Something its shown countless times it’s afraid to do.

        not afraid, not with that military budget.

        they agree with the far right nutjobs. or rather they serve them a purpose.

    I’d hate to see what it would do to the local mexican people but pushing them past the border and locking them out would be hilarious

      Hilarious, maybe. But the US really can’t deny entry to its citizens. But they can push a ton of bureaucracy on them (how many of them will have their passport on them?) and even immediately arrest them upon re-entry.

      It’d be the best thing ever if they got tangled up on that razor wire.

    If you thought their surprise attack was a success, wait til you see how it goes when they announce it ahead of time.

    This ought to be good.

    This is what happens when you call the 1/6 insurrectionists “tourists” and/or give them light sentences. Throw the book at these fuckers each and every time.

    • Maybe they’re just mispronouncing the word “terrorist”, they aren’t the most educated folk ya know. They did give those terrorists too light a sentence anyway.

    A retired US Army lieutenant colonel is organizing an armed convoy next week to the Texas border to, he says, hunt down migrants

    takes Green Beret courage to hunt down orphans and mothers in dire circumstances i guess… is that the kind of courage they teach at Army Ranger School nowadays…

    It would be a shame if another cold spell hit that area of the country while that convoy was there. Imagine being in the middle of the desert as your fuel supplies run out while the temperature is freezing… Yep real shame.

          Fun fact: originally the A-10 didn’t have electronic targeting or IFF (friend or foe) because the designer thought fighter planes still dog fought like they did in WW2 so they were deemed unnecessary in the name of maneuverability and cost reduction. Because of that outdated mindset the A-10 is the second place plane for most friendly fire incentdence and number one for most civilians killed. Wait actually that’s not really a fun fact…

            That guy who claims he designed the A-10 for those reasons is actually a dumbass who didn’t even touch the design. They didn’t give any strike craft those abilities because they didn’t exist at the time. It was late Vietnam.

            It didn’t get the targeting packages that the Eagle got because the Air Force only ever made the thing in an attempt to keep the Army from getting armed Helicopters. They promptly tried to get rid of it but every time they seriously attempt it the Army just shows them their congressional proposal for an Army strike jet. The Air Force has repeatedly sand bagged the A-10, hoping everyone will believe the CAS mission is dead.

            But the war in Ukraine has shown that it’s very much not.

            I will admit though that once the F-35 reaches certain scales of economy it will be cheaper to run them and some arsenal drones. But only because of that sand bagging.

    LOL wait til they realize they’re just shutting themselves off from receiving economic benefits. Really trying to fast track Texas’ isolation. Good - they can support their own now. Stop expecting shit from California and other states. No one wants to visit the Alamo, where another force of volunteers failed. No one really wants to move there they just have to due how cheap all the dusty flat shit they call land is. The weather is garbage.
