“Id like to know what Rick Perry thinks about those two Texan hunters who got shot at, while on Texas soil, by Mexican Federales.
Inquiring minds want to know.

You have any idea how costly cutting ourselfs off from the Rio grand river with a border fence would be? It would be positively catastrophic for south west Texas economically.
Nobody would want to hunt there.
A border French is do able in New Mexico, Arizona, California, and indeed a few select parts of Texas. But for Much of the Texas Border its unthinkable.
Besides Perry is right:
“
“No, I don’t support a fence on the border,” he said. “The fact is, it’s 1,200 miles from Brownsville to El Paso. Two things: How long you think it would take to build that? And then if you build a 30-foot wall from El Paso to Brownsville, the 35-foot ladder business gets real good.”
“
There ain’t no fence we can build that the Mexican’s can’t just as easily scale.
Theses folk already have to come prepared to trek miles and miles of barren wilderness which is mostly hostile desert to get here. (if their not prepared they will die, as many of em do.) No 30 foot fence is going to slow em down.
Its just going to costs us a lot of money, and provide a false sense of security. If we are going to attack the illegal immigration problem the battle is here in our States. We have to make it unprofitable and uncomfortable for the illegal aliens to reside here.
Perry has the verbiage of a squish.
