I guess we didn't realize how good we had it when I was a kid. If you got caught on a farmer's land where I grew up,
if you were lucky, the farmer would have gotten a heads up and called the sheriff's office BEFORE he headed out with his shotgun. If you weren't so lucky, the farmer would happen upon you and you'd have to explain what the hell you were doing out there at night... while he had his 12ga. pointed at you. But other than a couple of rustlers and a few poachers over the years, my dad really didn't have many problems
(maybe because people knew that he'd load their asses up with birdshot? :dunno. But jokes aside, people generally had respect for the property of others back then. Seems like the folks on this side of the border aren't so lucky.
I saw in that one video, the hombre on the horse had a decked out AK47, with what appeared to be a
40 round mag hanging out of it (when 30 ain't enough, you gotta have a 40 :eek
. Whether he was a Zeta/cartel type or just a regular coyote, my guess is, he knew how to use the weapon, and he wouldn't be afraid to mow down poor old Farmer John. IMO, if the extremists get their wish and they're able to disband I.C.E., the Farmer John types will eventually get tired of being trampled on and will just take the law into their own hands. In other words, bad shit will ensue. Some of the people coming across are just hapless working folks - but some of them aren't. Unfortunately, a .30 cal. doesn't know the difference.
Whatever side you're on in the great political divide that is modern day America, surely we can
all agree that chaos and anarchy on the border are not good things to have.
