"An armed militia group of private citizens has agreed to leave their encampment near the U.S.-Mexico border after officials expressed concerns about them brandishing weapons on public property.
"They decided it wasn't worth the fight," Sunland Park, New Mexico, Police Chief Javier Guerra told ABC News on Tuesday.
Members of the group, which calls itself the "United Constitutional Patriots," were seen using military-style attire and firearms to detain dozens of migrant families last week. Video of the encounter was shared widely on social media.
The group has remained camped out near the border in New Mexico and plans to leave the area Wednesday morning, Guerra said.
Federal officials also issued a warning to militia members over the weekend.
"Interference by civilians in law enforcement matters could have public safety and legal consequences for all parties involved," a U.S. Customs and Border Protection official said in a statement.
Private citizens have organized along the southern border for years in attempts to stop immigrants. A group known as the Minuteman Project coordinates volunteers looking to spot and report people that they believe to be crossing into the United States illegally.
"It's our job to support law enforcement, not to be law enforcement," said Howie Morgan, a Minuteman Project leader.
Despite public warnings from federal and local officials, Morgan said that their group only reports what they believe to be illegal activity."

If these people have so much free time, why don’t they ((()))?
Nah, though. Nah. They’re being lawful. Disbanding after police requests proves it. Learn from this, /pol/. Patriots don’t act like fifth columnists. Ordinary strength is real strength. Being dickshit defiant forever is just manipulable.

Even if you don't agree on them backing down these guys are heroes. What good is flinging shit at them going to do? The leftists are already gunning for them are you really going to help them by criticizing them?

They're idiots at best cowards at worst. I'm going with idiots.
They've done fuck all to help the situation except make people like me who aren't American laugh at how unbelievably fragile and pathetic you all are and how easy it is to shit on your country.
You're the least intimidating bunch of cucks around and should learn something from your masters the jews who know how to boss around invaders.

Who better to criticize the "heroes" in our
"movement" than us?
They need to know that they're setting the wrong precedent for these type of situations. Submitting to the government even for some "noble" reason is a bad idea and these guys proved that if you decide to actually protect your country from invaders YOU will face punishment, not the INVADER.
That tells anyone with eyes to see it the truth of the situation and they're to be commended for exposing that, however they should also be criticized for standing down because we need people who are willing to do what they did to remain resilient and unmoved by pressure.
Maybe this creates a situation where other people will feel more supported when they go against the grain than to just take their ball and go home.
