#1 Texas Legal Immigration activists have been busy in the state impeding the establishment of illegal undocumented Democrat distribution centers.

Dallas was forced to abandon accepting illegals after strong protests by Texans and Tejanos.

#2 I hope these men are videotaping their activities. If something happens, they'll want independent evidence that they behaved impeccably, or the Justice Department will involve itself with extreme prejudice.

#3 Best is to have the video wired to signal it directly to a cloud server(s) elsewhere so that confiscated equipment can't be erased or lost after an 'event'.

#4 Americans do self-organize extraordinarily well... If we came up with that in less than an hour -- and my contribution coming from someone as unmilitary as a person can be -- they'll be fine.

#5 I had a chance to read a book along this topic which I highly recommend;
Paul Revere's Ride
David Hackett Fischer
Oxford University Press, 1994

Like his other books, Fischer does a good job describing events surrounding the topic, in this case the American concept and origin of militia.

Follow it with his book Washington's Crossing. In fact, if you have the inclination and time, start with Champlain's Dream. This trilogy IMHO gives great background to what would become The Bill of Rights.

#7 Poor Johnson. Sitting back, cuppa coffee in hand while the presses run, when suddenly out of the blue...

#8 The wife and I stayed in a Nashville motel a couple of days ago. My wife went out into the hall way to talk to the cleaning ladies to tell them we did not need service. Neither one of them spoke a word of English. I read the other day, a principal who required Latino children in her school to speak English will lose her job. Loses job. It doesn't seem like a great burden to learn English in the country in which you live. After all, it is the language of our country. I have no problem with militias patrolling our borders. Our government isn't doing it. Just make sure you document any threats you have to respond to. The more I know of Progressives, the more I believe they are an enemy and threat to the country.
