Strip away all of the illegals, and how much of that 48% growth was from the indigenous population. At least we don't have a problem with illegal Canadians overrunning our border. Maybe it has something to do with Texas and California whining about how harsh Arizona and New Mexico are being on illegals. You live in a border state, your state refuses to stop illegals from coming in, or the feds and special interests paid for by your lobbyists to turn a blind eye, your Governor sides with the illegals, solely to protect financial interests, and cries foul when the other 49 states say no thanks. If you're lucky, the next administration won't give Texas back to mexico.

**your state refuses to stop illegals from coming in, or the feds and special interests paid for by your lobbyists to turn a blind eye, your Governor sides with the illegals, **

Let’s go step by step here:

He has not refused to stop illegals. What he has done is send in Texas Rangers while at the same time continuously calling on the Feds to give him the help he needs. Even to the point of meeting Obama on the tarmac with a written request because he couldn’t get it through any other way. (This is on video, by the way.)

If by siding with the illegals you are talking about the in-state tuition, I agree, I do not like that bill either. However to say “your Governor” as if he was the only one wanting it is just simply niave. 97% of the Texas legislation voted for it. “The Governor” has said, this should be decided at the state level and I am fine with that.

**, and cries foul when the other 49 states say no thanks.**

Washington, California, Utah, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Illinois, Wisconsin, and New York have all voted in the same thing. Do I agree with it? No, but please get your facts straight first.

You sound like you’re jealous of Texas.

Perry has not refused to stop illegals...he has spent 400 million of Texas taypayers money to stop illegals...

Under Attack - Greta On The Border, Part 2

Link to a report on recent active taking place on the border by Perry's Texas Rangers Recon Teams

WESLACO — Answering a smattering of gunshots with a 300-round barrage should show drug runners - their inflatable rafts full of illegal contraband - that Texas law enforcement officers aren't messing around, authorities said.

He said a single shot against a U.S. law enforcement officer is "one too many."

"We are going to use overwhelming force. We're going to use tactics ... You shoot a law enforcement officer, you're going to get return fire," he said. snip....

A Freeper who lives in the valley, has said thank God for Governor Perry. IF it wasn't for his actions we'd been over run and killed by now by the drug cartel. Freeper said...those blacks hawks come so low over our house they rip the shingles right off our roof. .

This is the fence the feds have built.
