“Invasion” sounds like the locals are fighting back. This seems more like “occupation”.
.
I’ll just run right down the 100 or so miles to the Tx border first thing tomorrow and protest!
Only thing is; I’d be all by myself.
Somehow, I don’t think a 106 lb girl alone would have too much of an impact.
I’ve ranted about Texas being under foreign invasion for weeks!
I’ve posted numerous times- phone numbers, emails and faxes of the governor and Texas reps and urged that we DEMAND they stop the illegal alien invasion of Texas and to launch protests.
Result? I was LAUGHED AT- even by fellow Texans here! The consensus was; ‘yeah, fat lot of good that will do’.
Travis and Houston fought and died for Texas. They would be ashamed of the whimpy Texans and their reps today who sit on their duffs, whine, are too afraid of the little dictator, Obama, or just don’t give a d*mn.
My deepest apologies to Travis, Houston, the heroes of the Alamo and the Texas revolution.
It appears your sacrifices were all for nothing.
All Perry does is get on national TV and whine that the Feds won’t secure Texas’ border- even as a tsunami of illegal aliens flood over each day, bringing crime, drugs, disease (and most likely Muslim terrorists) and untold expense that will bankrupt our state.
We are even fired upon by the Mexicans from across the border.
Texas is being invaded and fired upon by Mexico- yet Perry and our Texas reps do nothing!.
Texas Governor Perry has the authority to call forth the state military forces and the reserve militia to repel the invasion.

U.S. Const. art. IV, § 4 mandates the Federal government protect states against Invasion. The Federal government has not performed, States have legal recourse.
The law supports the states.
The federal government is violating law.
Perry lied about Texas not having the resources to stop it. (He did finally promise a ‘surge’, but where is it??
The Texas governor and Texas reps do nothing while Obama’s Cloward-Piven scheme is working well to destroy Texas’ freedom and system of government- as well as the freedom and system of government of the U.S.
Where are our Texas Conservative firebrands?
Cruz?? Gohmert?? Abbot??
Anybody?

All these folks…”refugees”…in motion by land and air brings to mind the potential for a repeat of the 1948 Los Gatos, California contract aircraft accident. That accident killed 28 legal migrants being loosely escorted by INS on a flight to Mexico. In that instance, the migrants were adult participants in the Bracero Program returning home per terms of their contract. Indicative of the times, no public recognition was made of the identity of Mexican victims.
Today any accident befalling the current group of newly recognized “refugees”, world opinion and not a few lawyers will instantly hold the US government responsible. No wiggle room…no weasel words.
Not at all. I’ve long thought that a weeks long re-enactment of the American Revolutionary War should be conducted in and around Washington, DC, Virginia, etc., complete with large-scale encampments, musketry, cannonry, formations, skirmishes, marches, etc. Let the sound of cannons echo through the canyons of DC.

I don’t know if anybody has considered this yet, but this situation could be the one intended to invoke martial law. He’ll say that it’s necessary to root out the criminals and terrorists coming through the borders. He’ll militarize the borders and tell conservatives to shut up about it because this is what we asked for all along. He’ll nationalize the National Guard to take them out the control of governors. Curfews will be invoked and anyone caught with a weapon will be subject to arrest. Ammo sales will be suspended. Bank accounts will be frozen. Government payments will be discontinued. Federal agents will be sent to large cities to “support” local law enforcement. Elections will be cancelled. I won’t be surprised if some or all of this happens=========
That is exactly it and there will be no election.
First there should be impeachment hearings. It is extremely important to present to the American people and the history books an organized, structured and LEGAL summarization of the high crimes. It is not about politics or even Obama — it is about the House simply doing its duty. Boehner and his ilk are complicit in these crimes IMO by NOT holding impeachment hearings
Amen to that. The House should have impeached long ago, and there’s absolutely no excuse not to do so today.
“The corruption is reaching a level that the system WILL collapse in on itself. “
Pretty much a given. So what do you do for your family and your tribe?
The emotional fuse has been lit. Don’t know how long it will be or if it will be loud. Either way, this just makes me sad and pissed off. Defend we must. We must hang together or we will surely hang separately (paraphrased)
#2 and #3 are only appropriate is Obama owed allegiance to our country, or if there was ever any faith or trust to breach. Under the dictionary definition, Obama is immune to charges of treason (or at least treason against the United States).
“Where are our Texas Conservative firebrands? Cruz?? Gohmert?? Abbot?? anybody?
Bingo. Lots of hats. No cattle.
....”deliberately trying to cause a citizen revolt so that he can declare martial law”........
Well he’s certainly coming at us with both barrels blasting anymore. It’s all about showing the population and congress He’s the boss..like it or not....the man isn’t going to let up any time soon.
Unfortunately nothings going to stop him at this point and he knows that......he’s not only pushing the envelope of his power....no doubt he believes he IS the only power in Washington and he’s going to show us all that....just as he said.
Even so....for what ever reasons there’s no opposition “acting” to stop him....he’s like a bull in a China closet right now.
....”Minutemen should be heading to the border ASAP.........Force Obama’s hand.....If he won’t put troops on the border to secure the country, he will surely send troops to stop citizens from securing the border. Either way the smuggling operations would be disrupted because of all the extra attention on the border”......
Now that’s about the best idea I’ve seen yet! Though why couldn’t the same Americans who have matched to Washington so many times....do likewise on the border along with the Militia?
Quick, somebody snatch Boehner from his tanning bed and have him read this thread!
/sarc
I’m sorry for feeling hopeless, but it appears more and more that most of our “leaders” really want this invasion to continue.
Perry is good at huffing and puffing.
Action? Miserably bad.
