This is called, "nanny patrol" by the BP.
I think about 1/2 of the new money should go to ammo, mines, and Predator aircraft.
And the rules of engagement should be changed totally --BP and NG should operate under the ASSUMPTION that whoever they're chasing are AL QAEDA COMBATANTS.
Not exactly, the NG troops on the border have their M-16 with them, they have loaded mags in pouches, but not in the M-16. The BP is responsible for their protection, just as they are responsible for the safety of Border Watch groups, if they are notified the civilian group is on the Border.
