| Abstract: |
The article discusses vigilante Chris Simcox, president of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps (MCDC) in the United States, and his role in illegal immigration prevention. MCDC followers are convinced they must form citizen border patrols to defend the U.S. from immigrants. Migrant hunters personally deliver illegal aliens to border patrols. Simcox's history of entrenchment in the neoconservative Republican establishment of anti-immigration politics is discussed. |
