Good, that means I have your attention. The only way to get the border problem under hand is to take the problem into your own hands. The feds aren’t going to help you, hell they’ll side with the illegals before they side with you. Sorry, call it as I see it, consequences be damned. If Texas wants to help itself, and the nation, then there options are very limited. They either have to lock down the border, and suffer the whining of the illegals and their enablers, or give up and just walk away from the border crossings, and let the invasion continue. Politics should not even be an issue here. It’s about state’s rights and issues of sovereignty.

Which is exactly why Perry has sent Texas Rangers to the border. He’s not getting the help he needs and as you say the Feds won’t help, so, he only has a certain amount of Texans available. Remember, the rest of Texas still has to have law enforcement available as well so he can’t pull every single law enforcement officer available.There are approx 1250 miles to cover. 1250 miles that need to be covered whether there is a fence there or not.
This is also why Texans are spending 400 million in taxes out of their pockets.

See above response. They can “lock down the border” without the available funds and man power.
**It’s about state’s rights**
Not when it’s an International border. It IS the responsibility of the Feds to take care of it’s countries borders, not an individual state within that country.

That should read CAN’T not can. Sorry.
