#1 Failing to enforce your sovereignty means someone else can annex your land. About freaking time.

#3 "Texans know better than that. You go down to the border regions of the state of Texas and they will tell you Washington, D.C., has been an abject failure in securing our border."

What was it again that happened to your request for 1000 National Guardsmen? Yep, seems that way to me too Gov.

#5 Texas Rangers are some bad asses. Texas Rangers are the "real thing."

And no, not the baseball team.

#6 Hopefully the Rangers will be augmented with sniper rifles, heavy machine guns, and a few RPGs.

#12 #11, #12, IIRC, the first responder to the Texas Tower shooter in 1966 was a civilian who took his shootin' arn off the mantel & up the stairs to confront Charles Whitman. At that point Whitman stopped shooting at the people below. Local law enforcers were next on the scene.
