And, in my opinion (don’t know how legal it would be), release a statement asking for help from citizens of other states.
When those citizens start to arrive, as I would, release another statement and video to the Feds saying “This is what REAL Americans do when they hear a cry for help from their fellow Americans - They respond!!”

“I’m getting pretty tired of doing that. There are a lot of conservatives in this country with very sore noses.”

Of course! BUT - (1)Are you a Texan? (2) Do you plan to vote for White OR sit out the election?

Voting for the lesser of evils is highly distasteful, but if it can stop, disrupt, or delay the path to total defeat, it is a necessary evil. And make no mistake, we are on a path to total defeat if we don’t at least take care of Federal business in Nov.

1. Proudly so.

2. I’ll vote Perry, with considerably less pride than my answer to #1.

Does anyone LIVE in Texas or Arizona? Well if so, it’s time for the governors to simply ADVERTISE for patriot residents to come to the border, join the national guard forces the governors should deploy and build the damned fences themselves!!!! Also request that several tens of thousand of ARMED residents make the trip to stand guard, if need be. They could then go to Hussein’s now posted “Arizona Badlands” to remove the Mexican drug dealers. Rifles w/ scopes. The states should provide automatic weapons. The entire mess could be cleaned up and the fence completed in several months.

As Governors, they have the executive authority and the right to use the state National Guard units at their borders to protect the citizens of their respective states.

Call the Guard up, send them to the border, and then we’ll know the Govs are serious.

Until then, well, not so much.

GREAT post! I am from MN but I have a brother near McAllen, TX and a sister just north of Dallas. I would LOVE to fly to Texas or AZ and join this militia. And BTW, I am CCW holder as well.

why not just enforce employment verification processes...that’s a lot easier than guns at the border...for just illegals!?

I think I read - here? - recently that the verification process/law is being challenged. That the SC is going to hear the case...
The argument is that employers, when faced with a white applicant and an applicant “of color”, will hire the white applicant over the “of color” applicant to avoid having to verify citizenship. I may be incorrect about this but I think it is at least related to the suit the SC will hear.

There is much to be said for recognizing that one must ‘tread water’ now and then in order to have a shot at winning the game. In chess, you don’t go on an all out offensive all the time. Sometimes you just have to take the less damaging position in order to have the opportunity to obliterate your opponent later, winning the game.

Texas Governor Rick Perry of Texas said the deployment to his state was insufficient.

Ok, here is the deal Rick. If you have a SHREAD of common sense you will see that your statement opens the door to easing back to the winning position of forcing the illegal aliens out of Texas. The heavy lifting has already been done by Jan. All you need do is jump on the pathetic "Texas gets 250 troops" offer from the prancing President and run with your statement of "the deployment to his state was insufficient."

Actually "insufficient" does not even qualify as laughable. It is a DIRECT slap in your face as to the reality of the Texas / mexico border.

Allow me...

That is the acronym-FECG–Fuerzas especiales del cartel del Golfo.

In English that is Special Forces of The Gulf Cartel

This is what came out of ONE Zeta camp. There are enough weapons, ammunition and radios in just this ONE camp to equip all of the "250 Troops" that the prancing President is insulting you with.

So Governor Perry, how is that SB 1070 looking to you now?

About a month ago, Rick Perry derided the new Arizona law. He must have read a poll and changed his mind.

Are you sure that's the case with Perry? From what I've read it's the lieutenant governor who holds most of the power in Texas.

well, it shouldn’t be a voluntary program. MANDATORY being the key word....regardless of race. After all there still are European illegals as well; and my view on them is equal to any other.
Immigration has to be reasonable and organized. If it’s those two, you won’t find a real big argument on the right.

No, I’m not sure at all, brother DangerZ...

But I’ll tell you what I am - I’m bitter, riled up, irritated, pugnacious, and pissed off, and I want G*ddamned country back, and I want SOMEONE in the position THEY SWORE TO UPHOLD, PROTECT, and DEFEND, to do some UPHOLDING, PROTECTING, and PROTECTING.

Just like you do. Just like every other Patriot on this blog wants done.

I’ll tell you what I AM sure of, though - I’m sure that I want the political hack assh*les responsible for letting this INVASION happen to be arrested, jailed for treason and malfeasance, abuse of authority, conspiracy, and RICO, and any other damned thing we can think of to throw at them so they become Bubba The Love Sponge’s butt-buddy for the next 1000 years...

I want the border SEALED UP TIGHT, and the cartels, the Zetas, the Kaibiles, the damned Reconquistas and their communist buddies and known drug traffickers either arrested and forcibly deported immediately, or something more permanent to ensure they DON’T come back.

That’s what I AM sure of...
