In the last couple of years a number of groups armed with military grade weapons have taken it upon themselves to patrol the border between Mexico. Most groups are only about 5 or 6 men, usually ex-military and they conduct frequent patrols looking for aliens trying to cross into the United States. Once they find any aliens they transport them to the US border Patrol to be deported back to Mexico. The border patrol has no official affiliation with these groups and are instructed not to have dealings with them. However, many agents gladly accept the help because there is simply too much ground to cover for the agents alone and the more successful para-military groups have understandings with the border patrol agents.
These military groups do occasionally illegally cross into Mexico and have been known to shoot so they are skirting the law but I think they have become a valuable, all be it volatile, part of the protection of our borders.
Do you think that these groups should be stopped by the government, or should they be allowed to continue to exist and work under the table with the US border patrol?
