Hello, Mr. Mike-Mike. Meet Mr. Hellfire.
Good grief!
I don’t share your views at all.
This is still the best country that was ever created, although the dems and the rest of the libtards have tried their best to ruin it.
If necessary, we may have to one day take the country back from the “ruling class”—but I think that could be done if necessary, as long as there are still enough of us willing to fight.
Falcon Lake: A man was killed last year by drug dealers in the middle of the lake. His wife escaped and his body has never been found. There have been a lot of incidents on that lake of fishermen and boaters chased by Zetas. Fortunately, most of our boats out ran the Zetas. It is becoming hazardous and the attacks need to stop.
My particular preference would be to shred the
Zetas boats with 30 MM, set the remamining hulks on fire and tow them to the Mexican shore. But that is just me.
I’d pay good money to was U.S.S. Texas blast the Zetas.
“Was”? = watch.
20 years ago I had to replace a guy being sent on a rig job west of Falcon Heights.
The manager had me take they guys place because he knew I had the firepower and would be willing to use it if I had to.
One of the contractors (not our co.) leaving the rig had stopped to open a gate that the border crossers had closed. When he got out of his vehicle, the border crossers jumped him and chopped him up with machetes.
The manager had gotten the OK from the land owner that I could carry a gun on his property (I did anyway like it or not) and the sheriff told the manager that if confronted I was to shoot first and ask questions later.
Oh give the WH a break, eric, my people, holder is busy lying about Fast ana Firious and mac daddy is busy with golf, vacations, parties and lying.
They have to set what is most important and do those thing first as the examples clearly show.
June 2011, the Rio Grande.

Interesting boat. It is not an enforcement boat but an attack boat that is capable of winning engagements with perps on shore. That would be the Rio Grande.
I suspect there are other parts to the attack system that have not been discussed, reconnaissance and handheld weapon systems that would curl your hair.
What we see is just the visible part of this system. I am certain that this is only the pointy end of a very long and heavy spear.
Rick Perry set this up. The same guy so many people rejected for Prez. As a Texan I am glad that he is back governing this state but I feel he would have put the glide back in our stride had he been the Prez candidate.
That’s what I have heard. Maybe this will begin to clear it up.
Hope so.
Apparently this is just one of several or perhaps many boats that will be despatched to the border and the Rio Grande.
We now have our own Texas Navy. Has a nice ring to it.
OK, you convinced me. Texas has Mexicans on or near the river shooting at them in high volume and the federal government does little to nothing about it.
Much obliged for the ping
Regards

At least Texas has a history of operating a Navy as an Independent nation. The Texas Navy, eventually merged with the United States Navy.
From wiki: “For three years the Texas Navy raided the Mexican coast and kept the Mexican fleet focused on defending its own coastline. In the Naval Battle of Campeche on 16 May 1843 the Texas Navy sloop-of-war Austin and brig Wharton, supported by ships from the rebellious Mexican State of Yucatan (then the Republic of Yucatán), engaged Mexican naval vessels, including the steamships Montezuma and Guadalupe. This battle is believed to be unique, marking the only occasion in which a sailing warship engaged and fought a war steamer to a draw.[3] The battle, which raged over several days, was a tactical draw, but a strategic victory for the Texan Navy, which forced the Mexicans to lift their blockade of Campeche and assured security in the meantime for the rebels in Yucatan. Other ships of the Texas Navy at the time included the brigs Potomac and Archer, the schooners San Jacinto, San Antonio and the San Bernard, and the Zavala, the first steamship-of-war in North America.[2]
When Texas joined the United States in 1846, the Texas Navy was merged into the United States Navy.”
“shred the Zetas boats with 30 MM, set the remamining hulks on fire”
I’m all for it! Mexico has committed acts of war against the US. I am all for going in, stomping the bad guys, and installing a less corrupt government.

If you are going to argue that Texas has never lost a naval battle to Mexican drug cartels and therefore doesn’t need this tool, then you win.
Hey, stupid, read the rest of my replies. You drama queens need to read before posting.
Really? Did you mean to send this to someone else? WTF?
You asked for proof that something like this was needed. "Name one!" I did.
You need to grow up. Name calling? Are you 12? Make an intelligent argument and add some logic. Act like you've done this before. This type of childish ignorance is embarrassing. It makes me look stupid that I gave you the time or energy to respond to your inquiry. You go "read before posting." Who's the drama queen?
(If you accidentally sent this to me, please disregard all of the above.)
Now I went and read all of your posts. Then I went and researched some other things you've posted.
I'm now convinced you simply typed a response before thinking. It happens. I've done it myself a time or two. You put you foot in you mouth. Instead of recanting or slinking away, you dug deeper with the prove it comment. When articles were posted (in proof), you went the way of a typical liberal and went to name calling and making ridiculous accusations.
That's yucky. FReeper up!
