Everyone thinks they could shoot unarmed border invaders , but actually doing so and not having emotional trauma at some point would be a different story, now if your in imminent danger sure most could handle that , so careful what you wish for , although I agree that would solve the border problem in a few days.
In the infamous words of Captain Kirk: I want my pain. I NEED MY PAIN!
I paid an extra 46k last year in taxes. I'm not interested in killing every one of them....I would hope the remaining ones would figure it out after the first fell.....and if not, that's not what we want here for breeding nor making critical decisions.
After all that they have done to try to destroy this country, rape, rob and murder us they will be just targets.
Not every invader has to be shot. Just the leaders. Even if they are not armed, they are the ones giving directions.
Watch for the ones that are on the outside of a crowd, pointing or motioning with their hand. Watch for the ones in front of a line of other invaders.
Heck they don't have to do anything but stand there and look like they are in charge. Talking on a radio or cell phone could be detrimental to their health.
After a few of them take a dirt nap, the invasion will stop UNLESS...
...they are dedicated enough. The cartels could start providing over watch and shoot back.
Unlike most of us, the cartels can afford the really nice thermal toys, .50 caliber weapons and lightly armored assets. They will use them.
They may not rely on pinpoint accuracy for counter-sniping operations but blanketing a suspected FP with lots of rounds.
Don't forget, they already have illegals here. So they will be called on to encircle or ambush friendlies. Yet they don't even have to do that.
If they find out the names of the civilian marksmen turned loose on their hermanos, you can expect the families of the patriot warriors to be threatened or attacked. There will be no front lines. There will be no rear echelon or safe areas for families.
Also expect the woke banshees with green hair to show up in and behind any FPs. They will look for anyone acting as security for the marksmen. They will practically beg to be shot. Some of them will also be armed.
It's been done before. History proves that.
Like I said, they will launch counter operations IF they are dedicated enough.
Am I saying any of this to discourage anyone from volunteering if the government gives us a green light? No. Just trying to be realistic.
It won't be a trip to the border for a few days and go home. It could be longer than we imagine.
Oh, I almost forgot. The MSM will want to interview any civilian associated with border protection. They are not your friend so don't feel flattered if they want to put a photo of you behind your dreaded sniper rifle on the front page of the NYT.
Okay, please excuse me while I slip into something flame retardant.
