FORT WORTH, Texas -- Protestors turned out across the state Saturday to voice their concerns about the multi-billion dollar Trans-Texas corridor.
The 4,000-mile highway is being developed, in part, to relieve traffic on Interstate 35.
The corridor would be three times wider than the average highway, wide enough for cars, trucks and trains. It would also be used as a route for utility lines.
However, not everyone supports the plan for a highway that would run from Mexico to Oklahoma, because in order to make this ambitious project a reality the state will have to take land through eminent domain.
Many people realize this is a rip off of Texas citizens and we're doing our best to stop it, said Russ Russell of Grapevine.
Protestors say people shouldn't have to give up land that has been in their families for generations.
The people are entitled to their land and their homes, Arlington resident Jerry Pikulinski said.
But its not just the land that's an issue, said Tarrant county resident Beth Kisor.
I am very disturbed about roads being taken after they've been paid for by taxes and become toll roads.
Still North Texas transportation leaders support the project saying if the infrastructure isn't improved, the Texas economy will decline.
Actually you have an excellant point.
If only our Govt. can confiscate private property and the only reason for this confiscation is to place a Mexican Customs station on this proposed highway in Kansas City Mi., then I guess you are right.
No Customs station, No Highway = No Eminent Domain Confiscation.

How big is this evil customs facility?

Under the Radar
Moreover, we can expect that similar inland joint Customs facilities, like the one in Kansas City, will be included in the other Mexico-to-Canada superhighway corridors. Of course, these corridors will not be secured, and the result - as intended - would be the de facto merger of immigration and Customs enforcement and the obliteration of the current national borders within the planned North American Union. That is precisely what one of the main architects of the SPP plan, Professor Robert Pastor of American University and the Council on Foreign Relations, has repeatedly advocated in his writings, speeches, and congressional testimony. (See sidebar on page 14)
How is it possible that something this radical has gone so far virtually unnoticed when illegal immigration and border security are among the hottest political topics of the day? The politicians and the private contractors who have been pushing this merger scheme intended it that way, knowing full well that adoption and successful implementation of the plan would depend on keeping it under the public radar.
Thanks largely to the investigative work of Joyce Mucci, who heads the Kansas City-based Mid-America Immigration Reform Coalition, and author/economist Jerome Corsi, the NAFTA Super Highway has begun to be a very hot topic. Using Missouri's Sunshine Law, Mrs. Mucci's group has pried loose a number of documents that are causing the public and private champions of the NAFTA Super Highway to squirm and stonewall. "They were going along great guns with this whole plan, with all of their high-powered politicians, law firms, PR firms, and corporate contractors - and virtually no opposition, until now," Mrs. Mucci told The New American. "We're just volunteers, so we don't have the money and influence they have, but we are digging out the truth." And she is hopeful that if enough taxpayers, voters, and property owners learn about all the horrendous ramifications of the Super Highway plan, they will shut it down before it can do the damage envisioned.
Another source known to Alex Jones called the Austin Police Department and they said that they knew about the armed troops. The police asked if the troops had threatened the caller. The caller said they threaten the sovereignty of the country and the police laughed and hung up.

I heard the WTO owns the Austin Police Department.
The new highway, being almost completely funded by private money and a federal loan, will cost taxpayers very little, unless they choose to drive on it. And if highways get the illegal aliens in faster (as opposed to lax border security), then we might as well blow up I-35 in Laredo, I-5 and I-805 in San Diego, and I-19 in southernmost Arizona.
bump
If another north-south road is needed all that needs to
be done is finish I-49 north of Shreveport,La. ,,,
It runs from NOLA north to I-20,,,
The blacks threw a fit because it would cut Da`Hood in
half,,,
North of here it’s already built,,,
It’s been tied up in the courts for years,,,
I don’t see why this wouldn’t work for Texas...
