This would be a great opportunity for some live fire training for USSOCOM units. Operators get some quality trigger time and the Cartels get their asses handed to them.

I read somewhere that some Mississippi DA is putting a bounty of $1000 per illegal immigrant who then gets deported.

That would be funny.

Anyway, it makes me think that maybe the U.S. should place a bounty on any “bandito” who shoots any person in our land.

Find them. Hunt them down and let them experience US justice.

Proposed Mississippi bill would offer bounty hunters $1,000 reward for deportations

DeSoto County District Attorney Matthew Barton announced a proposed bill that would let bounty hunters to pursue immigrants not living in US legally.

The special ops guys are pretty good, already.
It is a sad and unfortunate thing, that occurred, no doubt. I am a hiker, myself. Personally when hiking, I carry a 9MM, locked/loaded 15+1, and 2 full spare magazines in the shoulder holster, same as when kayaking in the back country or traveling on vacation and most of the time, around town. If you need a cop for protection, they are 15 minutes away. The special Ops guys you mention are over a day away, at the very least. Fine if wanting retribution, not so good, if looking to get you out of an attack on you, your family and friends.

I'm suggesting to deploy them. They get valuable training and dead Cartel members are always a plus.

Set up sniper teams at key points. Let them hunt

1500 more troops have been ordered to the border. But, in actuality, their mission of support remains unchanged.
Declaring an emergency at the border, does give him more leeway, though. Whether it overrides Posse Comitatus is something yet to be seen.

Mexico just killed an American on the border. That is an act of war. Time to attack Mexico.

We haven’t had a good solid review by SCOTUS relative to the Alien and Sedition Acts in a long time.

How is defending the border of the COUNTRY, a Posse Comitatus issue?

Defense of the country is LITERALLY the reason for the military.

No, but start drone striking the cartel leadership.

I suspect it will come up again. I simply hope they aren't overly broad, with their interpretation, in their mindless support, by the best Justice Money Can Buy. I don't want to see the 1st Cav or 10th Mountain Division hunting illegals on the streets of Jackson, Decaturville, Union City, TN or Paducah, or Monkey's eyebrow, Ky. I actually have no problem with using them to defend the actual borders, and not restrict to support roles, as they are now. Remember, I'm the guy that said hell with a wall, put up 3 foot chain link with keep out signs and a 50 meter mine field, surveilled with armed drones. I really don't give a rats ass what happens to aliens that sneak across the border, for whatever reason the sneak across, criminal intent or otherwise. But, that's just me.

Trust me. It will come up, if using troops within our borders for enforcement. I expect, Constitution or 150 year act of Congress, law on the books or not, the Supremes will rule and make law from the bench, in some manner. I just hope it is not too broad, or we could be in a military police state.

Actually, Trump got great advice. And the remaining alien and sedition act does seem to be applicable, now.

The use of the military to assist the Federal Government in ENFORCING our Immigration laws is perfectly valid.

I figure it will fly. I simply hope it is confined to the border.

Why? WH shouldn’t our government use our armed forces to capture criminal aliens anywhere they may be found? Say, in Kansas. Or, right in NYC, for that matter.

I do not favor, federal armed troops patrolling the streets. Nor has the rest country for most of our country's history.
