    Should Border States Form Their Own Militias?

    It seems that this might be an idea that could gain some traction. Citizens are desperately looking for ways where they can take a tangible action to do SOMETHING to show their displeasure at the lack of government inaction to protect the country. Interesting link below on militia activity in Arizona. Maybe it's time for militias to rise to the occasion once again.

    I think they should and think also this is already being done.

    bigtex, yes, I think it's already being done but seems to be more focused only on Arizona border and the militia members are coming from a number of different states. I was thinking more of an organized state by state militia effort in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California.

    In a previous time and a different place, it hadda be playin on the jukebox before people came together and acted to make changes in their society--but in this time and in this place, it is on a web of silicon electric powered pulses, which will lead our new world revolutions of thought:

    I think all states, not just border states should be forming militias and those that are capable and willing to participate, as it never hurts to prepare. Hopefully many level heads come together.

    The problem here is every Joe in the land wants or has a idea of how things should be done and nobody wants to be really "Organized" and di anything in a collective effort. We have seen this especially in Arizona, something in the air there that just makes folks want to go out on their own and do things without any sort of ORG.

    Then IF you are able to get people to participate, you have to deal with when where and how! And everyone has their own ideas on all of it.

    We have a group in AZ, the Border Patrol Auxiliary if anyone is really interested in doing something.

    "Should Border States Form Their Own Militias?" . . . mexico has been the worst neighbor any nation could have. America's government official used to realize that without much effort. Too many in today's government - so called - officials positions (with rare, but God sent, exceptions) don't do much to exercise their brains, so who the heck knows what capacity they have to think, unless it's for child like self serving endeavors.

    mexico shows no signs of ever being a good neighbor to America and Americans - those are the facts.
