…the rule of law should be in the hands of trained law enforcement officials, not armed vigilantes.”

I hope they also trod on his damn Gadsden flag.

From Buzzfeed News-> Chuck Davis, head of intelligence for the militia, posted on Facebook that Hopkins, who he referred to as “the commander,” had been arrested at base camp.

“They set him up they are trying to use his past from 50 years ago,” Davis said. “The commander needs all patriot to come to his aid.”

The Flora Vista, New Mexico resident was previously arrested in 2006 in Klamath County, Oregon, facing charges for impersonating a peace officer and two charges of a felon in possession of a firearm, according to court records. He ended up pleading no contest to a charge of impersonating a peace officer and guilty to felony possession of a firearm.

So do these militia members not do math, or did Hopkins commit a felony when he was 16 years old? And why if he committed a felony at 16 y/o he has been allowed to purchase guns for 50 years?

This is a good thing, but we need to see some arrests for kidnapping, pour encourager les autres.

Now please cage these white-supremacist assholes under an El Paso underpass with no toilets and inadequate water.

OK, so illegal vigilante groups are committing armed kidnapping and false imprisonment against the advice of federal law enforcement.

Even though they are waving guns around, they clam there are no pictures of them pointing guns at their victims, so we’re all good here.

Nah. Probably some sort of 2A absolutist. “shall not be infringed” So White Patriot Ex Felons can own arms. Especially when organized into a militia.

That stuff about no felon, mentally ill or kids owning guns is just lib interpretation of the sacred 2A.

MAGAts, helpful hint: If you’re a convicted felon, probably best not to run around with guns on camera kidnapping and terrorizing people.

I knew Michelle Luhan Grisham wouldn’t put up with the militia at the New Mexico border. Man I love her - she’s fearless. I wish she was running for president.
