He may be confused by a group of locals with a case of Carta Blanca.
Every time I see a picture of these guys they look like complete dorks.
“If this is happening in Doña Ana County, shouldn’t we be investigating these guys? They are committing a crime of Aggravated Battery with a Deadly Weapon,” a Doña Ana County Sheriff’s Department sergeant wrote separately to a superior a day later.
They sound like terrorists, to me.
I wonder if a simpler solution would be to send in Fish and Game and cite them all for allegedly “spotlighting” deer, which I suspect is illegal regardless of who owns the property. If nothing else it would be an easy way to positively ID these dangerous clowns and start draining their wallets.
The “brains” of the vigilante so-called movement…
“State Attorney General Hector Balderas’ (D) office “want[s] to come out swinging”"
Might I suggest one of these…
There really needed to be a back and forth discussion about whether this clear cut illegal behavior constituted committing crimes?
Luckily, mom’s basement is a walkout…
Charge the bastards with kidnapping.
Good news according to TPM teaser:
BREAKING: Appeals Court Sends Census Citizenship Question Back To Maryland Judge
“In any other circumstance this could/or would likely be a crime,” newly-appointed New Mexico State Police Chief Tim Johnson wrote to others in the state’s Department of Public Safety (DPS) a few hours later. “Agg Assault with a deadly weapon.”
“In any other circumstance”?? What exactly are the circumstances in this case that make it not like all the others?
Hopefully the courts will take this nonsense seriously and deal with these jokers. The sweetest aspect of this is the possibility that none of these knuckleheads will be allowed to own guns.
It’s the DANGER! ACTION! NOW! Squad. Look the fuck out - these men mean business!
I know I’ve joked about these people before, but one thing worries me.
If they get away with treating foreigners like this it’s only a matter of time until they start targeting fellow citizens who just happen to be on what they see as the “wrong side” of the debate.
I knew they were harassing and endangering these people, but I had no idea they were eating them until I saw your picture!
"I also realize this is very political and could likely stir up more issues than we’re prepared for, but what’s right is right,” [New Mexico State Police Chief Tim Johnson] wrote to DPS officials at one point.
It’s really refreshing to see a government official – and a member of the police, no less – do the right thing for the right reasons.
Also, how is this suddenly a thing? These weekend warrior cretins have been doing this cosplay for years. Southern AZ Walmarts cannot keep up with the demand for XXX camouflage shirts.
Anyone who followed the Bundy Ranch standoff and the occupation of the Malheur Wildlife Refuge knows these militia wingnuts are pathetic losers, but at least a few are possibly unhinged trigger-happy wingnuts. It’s a very dangerous situation. Happily, some are clueless eejits who feel compelled to post braggy videos on social media of themselves breaking the law.
