Drones......seems Brownsville has a lot of activity with this sort of stuff.
“Caliber weapons” are definitely the worst type.

I’m sure he is glad that it wasn’t Gustav or Dora that shot him. :-)
Rio Grande River?
Do you think the writer actually believes that this statement is a correct use of the word?
Billions for border security, not one penny in aid to the narco-terrorist state of Mehsico. Shut it down!
Nuke mexico......
Bullets fly across the border all the time. Schools in Brownsville and El Paso have had to go on lock down more than once. A wall would stop some of that.
They shoot any caliber over the Border.
We should return fire starting with a 50 caliber.
They shoot back again.
Switch to Mortar rounds or a Laws Rocket.
Increase as needed.
I know that will never happen but that’s My theory.
There will never be a wall in Texas......forget it
