FILE - In this April 23, 2019, file photo, a self-styled Patriot stands a quarter mile from a barrier that marks the U.S.-Mexico border after his group, United Constitutional Patriots, gained national attention for filming themselves detaining immigrants near Sunland Park, N.M. Throughout U.S. history, private, armed groups have been hired or appointed themselves to police the U.S-Mexico border for a variety of reason, ranging from preventing Chinese immigrants from crossing over illegally to preventing runaway slaves from fleeing.
