I didn't say it. Your argument is with that busy bee poster.Hey you're the one who claims they can't be held accountable. Make up your dizzy mind.Citizen's arrest.A well armed militia does not have the authority to unilaterally decide what the law is and then become a separate LEO organization.
The highest ranking Executive Officer of the state is the governor. If that governor says a National Emergency does not exist; it does not exist.The state militia answers to the governor of that state.
These build the wall nutjobs are the very ones who allowed the government to set the legal precedent that undocumented foreigners have "civil rights"... AND that those civil rights trump the property owners private property rights. You've already duly noted that state and local officials cannot be forced to enforce federal immigration law. Furthermore, the United States Supreme Court has ruled that being in the United States without papers is not a crime.
That is the Rule of Law. I was an officer in this country's oldest and most continuous militia. The fact that we've been around longer than any existing civilian militia, having outlasted the rest should tell you that what I'm saying is NOT opinion. It is just the facts and any strategy used has to be employed subject to the parameters of the law.
What part of it is not a crime to be present without papers do you have a problem understand?
In order to do a citizen's arrest, you have to have a crime. While it is against the law to cross the border, if the officials don't witness the act, then NO CRIME EXISTS. It is a civil issue of which you cannot act.
But, go ahead. I've been advising militia groups not to try that stupid crap for well over three decades. I know a LOT of former militia folks doing time in federal prison. Feel free to ignore sound counsel. Maybe Trump will pardon you.
What do you want people to be held accountable for? Coming here and taking a job willingly offered? Renting a house that a landlord willingly rented to them? You think it should be a crime to take a job and feed your kids?
I'm losing track of whose argument is what.
