PIMA COUNTY, AZ - NOVEMBER 16: Civilian paramilitary volunteer James, 24, for Arizona Border Recon (AZBR), stands near the U.S.-Mexico border on November 16, 2016 in Pima County, Arizona. The college student said he felt it is his duty to help protect the nation's borders. "There's evil going on here,"he said. AZBR is made up mostly of former U.S. military servicemen, stages reconnaissance and surveillance operations against drug and human smugglers in remote border areas. The group claims up to 200 volunteers and does not consider itself a militia, but rather a group of citizens supplimenting U.S. Border Patrol efforts to control illegal border activity. With the election of Donald Trump as President, border security issues are a top national issue for the incoming Administration. (Photo by John Moore/Getty Images)
