How does the GOP attract such whack jobs?

It’s this kind of idiot that assists the msm in painting all Republicans as racist, extremist, nut jobs.

Actually this is what Eisenhower had troops do in the 1950s and voila, more than 3 million illegals high-tailed it back across the border.

Those who say it is impossible to deport 12 million or 20 million illegals are full of it. Spread fear with a few small examples and there will be caravans full of illegals racing for the border.

An 1868 Cattle Ranchers Law in Texas which still is in effect to date states you can shoot anyone that trespasses onto your property can be shot because they deem harm to you and your livelihood.

This law has been challenged for over 100 years, but Texas makes the defense that a person who trespasses onto your property likely does not have a legal right to be there and also does not intend not to harm you or deprive you of your property and or life.

It’s legal in Texas, if you deem them a threat.

Welcome to Texas :)

He’s more than likely a Democrat masquerading as the Republican and being absurd at the same time.

This sounds like somebody sent to our side in order to make the GOP look foolish and dangerous. I’ve seen this before, but they are usually a little more subtle. If this guy is a real republican, he is in it for himself only, negative blow back on the party be damned. This myopic selfishness makes him unsuitable for office anyway.

I support his right to say how he feels about this particular subject. Texas is being invaded and no one, state or federal, is doing a damned thing about it.

If Texas would make the environment hostile enough, they’d stop coming.
By hostile I mean no freebies and English as the primary language.

Why it look like the corrupt MSM got themselves another tool to bludgeon Republicans with. What took them so long? Look for the corrupt MSM to aid their Leftist brethren by flogging the GOP with this guy.

They did it with David Duke, Todd Aikin, and countless others. Yet, Joe - All 7-11 employees must be Indians - gets a typical MSM pass.

The MSM needs to go first!

Well, here's another plan for border security:
If no additional illegals come into the country, that would stop the flow, which is the real problem.

Wikipedia on the US/Mexico border:

The border's total length is 1,954 mi, according to figures given by the International Boundary and Water Commission. It is the most frequently crossed international border in the world, with approximately 350 million legal crossings being made annually.
[…]
There are an estimated half a million illegal entries into the United States each year.

Wikipedia on the Paladin:

Crew:                     6
Effective firing range:  11 mi
Operational range:      216 mi
So to cover the border we'd need 1,954 / 22 ≈ 89 Paladins… but that's an under-count because that would entail butting them directly on the border. We would actually want them back a bit.
c² = b² + a²
11²  = 5.5² + a²
121 = 30.25 + a²
90.75 = a²
9.5 ≈ a
So, we could put them 5.5 mi away from the border, allowing them to cover 19 mi of border; this would mean that we'd need 1,954 / 19 ≈ 103 paladins [103 * 6 = 618 men].
Or, we could put them 9.5 mi away from the border, allowing them to cover 11 mi of border; this would mean that we'd need 1,954 / 11 ≈ 178 paladins [178 * 6 = 1,068 men].
(Of course we'd need logistics to support them: meals, munitions, mail, etc.)

See, securing the border is not as hard as they make it out to be.

You might make the point that it would be unjust or immoral, but if you say that we cannot then you argue against the power/authority to seal our borders — something that should be laughed away by any sane reading of Art IV, Sec 4.

Moreover, we can force the issue via the states — the major problem here is getting a gov with stones.

Don't know about "shooting", but that last paragraph sounds excellent to me...

Join the "melting" or get the heck out of the "pot"!

I met him, Stovall and Areas or at their debate several days ago. They were all saying the right things, but Mapp did seem a bit unfiltered. Stovall got my vote. Cornyn and Stockman were no-shows.

Also, I got a strange pseudo-newspaper from Stockman in the mail today, filled with anti-Cornyn "articles."

Lets just say I would not shed any tears if Mapp’s idea had worked for the ones living next door to us.

I agree 100%!!!

As an added measure there should be a stripe of land mines 100’ inside the border!

How about this. 1. Pass a law that makes it a crime to be here illegally. Right now it's illegal to sneak in, but not to be here. Fix that. Violators to be arrested and incarcerated for a specified period of time before being deported.

2. Next, pass a law making it against the law, with a huge fine, to employ an illegal immigrant. Enforce this rigorously. To lighten the burden on the businesses who would be affected by this. Make an exception to the law providing that the state can legally contract to hire out these detainees to the landscaping, roofing, farming etc. companies that need their services, that would otherwise be employing them illegally.
The main difference is that they still get to work in the US, which is what they wanted, except the money they make picking crops, etc. doesn't go for beer, cigarettes, and back to the family in Mexico.
Instead, the state uses any income they generate to provide for their support during their detention period and for the cost of deporting them.

In other word, de-incentivize them.
