BREAKING: Texas Sends Armed Troops to Defend the Border (VIDEO)
Conservative Tribune ^ | June 20 2014 | Conservative Tribune

Posted on 06/20/2014 1:33:53 PM PDT by PoloSec

The border crisis that Obama has manufactured for political purposes only seems to be getting worse, as illegals pour in hoping for amnesty and being dumped at bus stations in Texas and Arizona by the feds.

Texas has had enough of it, which is why they’ve decided to stop waiting on the feds to do their job and just shut down the border themselves.

The state’s Republican leadership has approved of $1.3 million per week in additional border security to stop the wave of illegal immigration into Texas.

This will include the deployment of armed Department of Public Safety Troops to defend the border.

Via America’s Freedom Fighters:

Gov. Rick Perry, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst and House Speaker Joe Straus said in a joint statement that spending on the “law enforcement surge operations” comes as the result of “the absence of adequate resources to secure the border.” The surge would continue until year’s end.

Last week, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott asked the U.S. Homeland Security Department for $30 million so Texas could send more state troopers to the border.

“Texas can’t afford to wait for Washington to act on this crisis, and we will not sit idly by while the safety and security of our citizens are threatened,” Perry said in the statement.

If the feds won’t do it, it’s up to states like Texas to take care of business and secure the border. This is a good example of how states can take matters into their own hands and fight back against Obama’s total lawlessness at the border.

And the lazy and/or stupid devils who voted for this curse on our nation can thank Texans for cleaning up the mess along the border. We want every last illegal sent home so we won’t be stuck with this invasion in our schools.

Nobody should be celebrating just yet. Let’s see if they actually at least shut the crossings down and send them back. I would truly be surprised if that is what is done considering we’re dealing with Perry, Dewhurst and Strauss. If they were actually going to do something effective this trio has had many years to have accomplished their task but have done nothing in the past.

Wait til the story breaks that Obama asked DHS to ready housing for 65,000 MINORS, BACK IN JANUARY!

Did this really happen? I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if it did.

We have a effing TRAITOR supposedly running the country! I absolutely cannot believe how BAD THIS IS!

No way can Perry or anyone else in this country send them back. The Congress passed a law allowing this. The WH and Homeland Security knew this was going to happen in January. It’s all talk. They are here to stay and they will send people to find their “families” and bring them here for everything FREE.

“No way can Perry or anyone else in this country send them back.”

Can’t Perry’s people just herd them onto buses the minute they arrive, head northeast, and dump them in D.C.?

Wonder what would happen if everyday citizens dressed with jeans and blue shirts for example, went to the border and joined arms to prevent anyone crossing. Would Obama order us shot?

My question is what are they going to do? Once they wade upon the shore they are
in the US. How are they going to stop them from setting foot on US soil? They
can be taken in and deported but that is a long process.

Thoughts anyone on the process?

Unless they intend to stop them from crossing at all, its a meaningless gesture.

*************

That’s the problem. Once here on US soil what’s next? The border is generally the
middle of the Rio Grande in Texas but then it also has changed course at times so
some of the border is on one side or the other along parts of the River.

Deportation is a long process and with children who knows what is required.

If you catch them right at the border, deportation should be automatic and swift

*****************

Explain that. They are already on US soil so what do you do. Line up and start
firing at them as they come across the Rio Grande? Get dogs and chase them back
into the river? What do you do? Until the barricades are up to stop the crossings
we’ve got problems galore.

No this is DPS Department of Public Safety. For most part they are what other States call a State Trooper. Traffic enforcement on ANY road in the State/Statewide Jurisdiction. They also do other things like Drivers Lic/car tags/State Inspection for vehicle safety/Truck Weights/etc.

What they should do is send a few of The Texas Rangers down there

explain what?

If they are seen crossing the border they should be arrested and detained and sent back when a bus is available.

That is what I am saying.

Texas rangers should do the job with deputized civilian members of the National Guard
