Note the long stretch along the Texas Mexico border with no drone bases.

The CBP UAS bases on the south border are in Sierra Vista AZ, Corpus Christi TX, and Cocoa Beach FL. The TX and AZ stations send their aircraft to tracks that run from Yuma to Brownsville.

Cattle rustling. Isn’t that a hanging offense?

My step Brother was the LEO who requested and got the drone in this case.

So he didn’t steal the cows! Cows go through fences all the time. You just go get your cows or call your neighbor to get theirs out of your pasture. I am not understanding this problem.

It is the change they voted for. They also voted for obamacare. And a thousand other things that haven’t manifested themselves yet. All of them bad for freedom and liberty in the U.S.

"My step Brother was the LEO who requested and got the drone in this case."

So apparently his parentage half was a descendant of a Nazi brown shirt?

A jury said[by their verdict]that he was not guilty of stealing cows. Rustling was not mentioned.

I will and do not watch or listen to him. It is bad enough to have to look at him for a second or two. The only ones I despise more than I do him is the bastards that voted for him.

“My step Brother was the LEO who requested and got the drone in this case.”

I have no problem with your step Brother. I see no real difference between what he did and using a helicopter. And in my neighborhood, we’ve got helicopters, with their searchlights, overhead every other night.

Brossart was found not guilty of stealing the cows and got six months in prison over the police standoff, Forbes reported.

He was found guilty of protecting his family and property from the government thugs trying to kill them.................you can't do that................

Up here in space
I’m looking down on you.
My lasers trace
Everything you do.
You think you’ve private lives
Think nothing of the kind.
There is no true escape
I’m watching all the time.
I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam.
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean.
I’m elected electric spy
I’m protected electric eye.
Always in focus
You can’t feel my stare.
I zoom into you
You don’t know I’m there.
I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove.
I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam.
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean.
I’m elected electric spy
I’m protected electric eye.
Electric eye, in the sky
Feel my stare, always there
There’s nothing you can do about it.
Develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought
And so my power grows.
I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam.
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean.
I’m elected electric spy
I’m protected electric eye.
I’m elected electric spy
I’m elected. Protected. Detective. Electric eye.

“I am not understanding this problem.”

Neither did the judge....

““This case should have never happened,” State District Judge Medd said..... “We should never have been here if the cows would have just been returned.”

“In a short written statement, Brossart said he took responsibility for his actions and wished he had done things differently.

Asked by Medd why he didn’t simply turn over the six head of cattle to his neighbor, Brossart said, “Sometimes things don’t make sense.”

Also, Brossart was, apparently, convicted of a misdemeanor violation of the states “stray cattle law.”

“On two misdemeanor charges of preventing arrest and violating the state’s stray cattle law, Medd sentenced him to serve shorter sentences at the same time.”

We have cows, they get out occasionally, some one calls us and we go get them. Our neighbors cows get out occasionally, we call the neighbors and they come and get them.

We had a bull named Romeo, he never let a fence get in his way when he knew there was cow across the fence that he was interested in. So... he got the name Romeo.

Sure....I used to live next door to some folks who kept cows, so I’ve been there.

Unfortunately, people weren’t so reasonable in this case. Or so it would seem.
