  1. Domestic terrorists is more accurate than vigilantes.

  2. You use the word, "patriot," to describe domestic terrorists.

  3. Imagine being called vigilantes for taking the law into your own hands and pretending you have any authority to act on behalf of the US government.

  4. Nothing says patriotism quite like opposing the US government, endangering yourself and others, and taking the law into your own hands!

  5. Which part of the government issues the regulations and/or authorizes the militia?

  6. ​ @timc9893 you could read our Constitution yourself. It's publicly available.

  13. According to the US Constitution, the regulations for a well-regulated militia come directly from Congress. Surprising, I know! It also says your disqualified from holding public office if you engage in insurrection or provide aid and comfort to insurrectionists. Crazy!

  14. Trump just begged Republicans to vote against border security and Abbott just got slapped by the SCOTUS. Both are anti-American.

  15. ​ @LAST_1_OF_Us you might want to read the US Constitution sometime...

  16. ​ @zytebac no. Why would I mean that? That's a dimwitted justification for vigilantism.

  17. ​ @timc9893 you'd have to be blindingly stupid to see it that way. Is that how you see it?

  18. ​ @dameyonealons7085 according the US Constitution, the regulations for a well-regulated militia comes from Congress.

  19. ​ @godssara6758 the US Constitution is longer than half of the one sentence that makes up the Second Amendment.

  20. These vigilantes are also likely minute men. Dressing up and playing soldier isn't a great sign for their manhood.

  21. People are quick to say they're unlawful simply because they're acting as though they have the right and authority to interpret and enforce the law. I ask you, is it wrong to defy a law if you think breaking it means you get to dress up and play soldier with your friends?

  22. Timothy McVeigh considered himself a patriot, too.

  23. You, the nutcase, may support vigilantism, but most Americans are law-abiding.

  24. ​ @annsky67 are you suggesting I also act as though I'm qualified to interpret our immigration laws??

  25. Well-regulated militias are under the control of Congress, according to the US Constitution.

  26. Another instance of FOX News promoting lawlessness. Should we assume Greg Abbott is also endorsing this stunt?

  27. FOX referred to them as vigilantes instead of domestic terrorists because they knew the snowflakes were going to cry about it.

  28. Would you say you're full of awe?

  29. You can play dress up and menace people now, you don't have to sign up anywhere.

  30. Abbott pays them in fentanyl.
