I can't believe my state did this. Instead of housing them, why not SEND THEM ACROSS THE BORDER??!!! ARGH!

$109 million would build a nice fence with mine field in front of it.

Back when I was in high school, the popular radio station ran a contest. First prize was a weekend trip to beautiful Pearsall. 2nd Prize was a week in Pearsall and 3rd Prize was two weeks in beautiful Pearsall.

Maybe the Feds want to punish the illegals by sending them to Pearsall so they won't come back??

The $49.5 million South Texas Detention Complex is to begin housing detainees in the next month or two. It has room for 1,020 of them — 850 men, 150 women and a temporary holding area for 20 minors.

1,020. That's about one day's catch.
