I had to read this twice to fully understand that it wasn't a joke:
Mexico Vows to Fight Migrant Patrol Project in U.S.I think someone needs to inform this gentlemen that what these volunteers are doing isn't against the law while instructing people on how to evade immigration authorities is...MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexico will pursue legal action against plans by a U.S. citizens' group to patrol the U.S.-Mexican border in search of illegal immigrants, the country's foreign minister said on Monday.
Luis Ernesto Derbez said he asked lawyers in Los Angeles to draw up a legal strategy to fight the Arizona-based initiative called "the MinuteMan Project" that has signed up hundreds of volunteers for border patrols.
"We are going to attack by all legal means," Derbez told a news conference. "We are presenting the reasons why we consider this action to be incorrect and illegal from the point of view not only of our government but also under U.S. law."
Are we gonna have armed Mexican irregulars crossing the border to ensure the safety of illegals? I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if it happened.

Comments on Say What? Legal Action?
Mikey, there are WAY too many people "patrolling" the border looking for targets and trophies for this to be a good thing. Somebody's going to get killed. Probably more than one. Maybe not by this group, but they're not the only ones organizing this kind of action.
Vigilantism is not what I would call a valid deterrent. That precedent is way too dangerous.
