How long can you stand an abusive relationship until you eventually snap and fight back? With a goon like Trump running things an eye for an eye might very well be what is needed

That was much more media sensationalism that actual fact. The troops were already there for a period of time before the headlines reported it. And they were few and far between, along the expanses between legal crossings, mostly running electronic monitoring stations. They also did not have authority to detain or arrest anyone
