People crossing the border illegally may be doing double takes, because a TV superhero is going to be on patrol.
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio on Wednesday swore in 56 members of a new volunteer sheriff's posse group that includes "The Incredible Hulk" star Lou Ferrigno.
The sheriff says action-film star Steven Seagal and actor Peter Lupus of TV's "Mission: Impossible" fame also are members of the posse group, though they weren't sworn in at Wednesday's ceremony.
The new posse group will specialize in helping deputies crack down on illegal immigration.
The sheriff says the volunteers' duties will include bringing arrestees to jail and handling demonstrators who interfere with immigration patrols.
Some of the nearly 3,000 people who were already part of Arpaio's volunteer posse had played a support role in earlier immigration patrols.

WOW, I can rest a lot easier now knowing that celebrities are on patrol.
but whatever it takes to change people's attitudes because I don't know about you... but I'm getting so tired of hearing our politicians are more concerned about the "Hispanic vote" than the American vote.
people being offended because a kid has an American flag on his bicycle
Where it's okay to fly the Mexican flag higher than the American flag in a government building
Perhaps, someday we'll take the invasion seriously or you be seeing signs like "¡sí! Hablamos Inglés."
We'll just have to wait and see how the new congress plays out. I have a small amount of optimism still about the Tea Parties and the continued interest even by young people in the Constitution and limited government.
