I don't know if there are any caches along the Arizona/Mexico border, but if so, geocachers need to be aware of possible problems. The 1000+ volunteers of the MINUTEMAN PROJECT will be conducting patrols along part of the border for the month of April. A violent Central America-based gang (Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13) has issued orders to teach "a lesson" to the Minuteman volunteers. There could be some problems for anyone in the area, and should be aware.
