At least 1 candidate for Texas Lt. Governor has openly advocated a large increase in the “State Guard” (not National Guard). I heard it in an interview yesterday on a radio station.

He seems to be completely focused on closing the border with Mexico and the State Guard was one means felt necessary.

Private Militia’s are one thing, but a state sponsored Militia is what the founders envisioned from the beginning. A well regulated militia. I am an old man, have no interest in playing Army, but I would sign up for a State Militia.

Couple that with encouraging military grade weapons held in private hands across the State of Texas. I am ready.

Let me know when there's a governor that'd be willing to upset national politics and totally screw-over those pushing for amnesty.

Heck, sealing the border would require less than 200 Paladins.
