As you may have heard on the news, some 300+ volunteers, referring to themselves as the Minute Man Patrol, have taken to guarding the Mexico border (where a State Dept. advisory warns to avoid travel, due to increased inter-drug lord territory skirmishes). The media and government refer to these volunteers disdainfully as "vigilantes." In response, some clever person spun it into this perspective, which found its way to my inbox:
"Minute Man Patrol volunteers are not vigilantes. They're 'Undocumented Border Patrol Agents'."
