Citizens of a rich country find themselves with a surplus of resources and of free time. Some of them need to find a new hobby.
None more so than the assholes with guns driving around the southern deserts looking for Mexicans.
First off, you have the right to own a gun, despite the rather clear wording of the amendment that you need to be in a maintained militia to have said right (e.g. The National Guard). But since the NRA pumps millions of dollars into conservative politics, and spouts out phobic rhetoric about the need for automatic weapons in a country that has not seen domestic combat since the Civil War and exists in a world without military rival... I guess we can read the amendment incorrectly, so the rich owners of the NRA and their weapon manufacturer butt buddies can make shit tons of money.
Business as usual in America.
But the Nazis that patrol the desert are not a militia. A militia is an official organization that is funded and controlled by the local government. These guys are just a rabble of wanna-be vigilantes.
The National Guard and the police should be out there stopping these people. If they don't have a legal means, then the local governments need to make a law so they do.
This "boarder patrol" claims to be made of patriots fighting to protect the country, but I would be rather perplexed as to how a few hundred poor Mexicans can threaten the United States. I am also perplexed to any economic argument these people might make, as they seem to have enough money to buy guns, body armor, military fatigues, and drive around in the desert all day. I doubt they have to worry about an uneducated migrant stealing their job.
They are racists, and worst of all, they are stupid racists with guns. Lasso them in before they shoot someone, or rape someone and then shoot them.
Besides, global climate change is making the desert the most effective gun ever. Good thing we put up that fence so the desperate poor we created have to risk the most dangerous parts of the terrain. Why is no one is willing to speak the fact that Latin America is a mess because America has been raping it consistently for over 150 years?
The other group of clowns come from the liberals: the whale wars group. These assholes are not quite as bad as the 5th column in the South, but they are a huge pain in the ass for foreign policy. These frothing-mouthed cetacean-lovers raise huge amounts of money that could be spent on helping people, but instead buy fancy speedboats and illegally harass whaling ships in international waters.
Then they bitch when the Japanese fucking take them out.
If we didn't still own the Japanese military, a destroyer would have sent all these people to the abyss years ago. Harassing another nation's business interest is not what you do. As an example: The United States of America overthrows governments and massacres countless people when that happens (e.g. Hawaii, Porto Rico, Mexico, Grenada, Columbia, Phillippines, Iraq, Afganistan, Vietnam, etc. etc.) That's how big of a deal it is.
The Coast Guard should suppress these people before one of two things happen: the Japanese figure out a way to disable all the whaling boats and leave the whole group of idiots stranded in the ocean, or the blowhole fetishers get frustrated and resort to real violence, creating an international incident, or worse, kill a human being over a fucking whale. These "activists" are our citizens, mostly, and they need to be reigned in.
Go to Japan. Translate your documentaries about how whales are cute and intelligent, and convince people to stop buying the stuff. That's how you win.
Why whales? Why dolphins? Why waste the resources on animals when 80% of humanity lives in abject poverty? Why does being cute and smart make them special? A cow feels pain. Pigs feel pain. You don't have to be intelligent to be tortured. Why don't you people care about any of the other animals that get ruthlessly slaughtered on a daily basis?
Get over it.
