Border Vigilantes

The US/Mexico border has long been a place of violence and danger as migrants and drug cartels battle to get their goods into the United States. Texas towns like Eagle Pass share the same problems as Arizona towns like Douglas and California's San Diego. Each border town has seen vigilantes, often times local border residents, patrol areas on the lookout for drugs and smugglers, while the Customs and Border Patrol agents play cat and mouse with migrants and smugglers. There's no simple answer, but for some living on the border, they feel the answer is to take matters into their own hands.
