We have plenty of room for illegal aliens coming across the border, but heaven forbid we provide shelter for actual citizens in their time of need.

Are you kidding? Texas opened their arms and hearts to 220,000 people. They provided a roof over their heads, clean clothes and food, medical care, they've opened their schools to the children, they have taken on an immense challenge. Don't you think it's time some other state stepped up to the plate? Don't you think it's pretty embarrassing that LA had to send so many of it's people out of state because they simply had made no adequate provisions for an emergency that has been predicted for decades?

Thanks Texas, we are busting at the seams here in Baton Rouge and will probably pop. We (BR) really don't like being the largest city in La.
