the operation is a call for civilian militia members — both armed and unarmed — to voluntarily guard private property in the Laredo area and other Texas locations where owners feel threatened by “drug cartels and from gangs, particularly the MS-13 gangs,”

The headline is very misleading, if not slanderous.

If the Founders and Framers did as you advise there would be no United States.

You may not be impressed with a lot of Texas sir names but it is what it is. Maybe the following
will help you understand the area we are talking about. The Texas border runs from the Brownsville
area on the Gulf of Mexico to El Paso on the far western tip. Here are the Hispanic populations
by county mostly along the Rio Grande River. The counties listed have 50% or greater Hispanic
population. Keep in mind that the state of Texas has 254 counties and the land was once a
part of Mexico/Spain/France, etal

Can statistics ever be complete?

With the high number of apprehensions recorded, why are there so many people crossing there? How many illegal aliens avoid apprehension in this area?

The path of least resistance will be the path sought. I’m sure those entering this country illegally know where their chances are best for the most part, and the volume in the Rio Grand Valley suggests gozillions get through.

It could be a RAT, or maybe a Woolie Booger Millipede.

Well back to the point. Do you think the sheriff is interested in securing the border?

He'll serve his constituents. That part of the country is used to being able to cross back
and forth mostly unimpeded. He's elected and when the population doesn't want him they'll
put him out. If this is to be stopped it's going to happen by the Feds, not the locals, imo.

Hmmmmm... I don't see any Mexicans on these targets. Strange.

No blacks.

No Mara Salvatrucha 13.

No muslims.

Basically just whites.

No, silly!

In fact, because they did as I outlined, they came up with a very good Constitution. Not perfect, but very good. In fact if states would take advantage of the clause authorizing them to deal with invasions, they would quickly get out of the jam they are in now.

Before the Framers wrote the Constitution the Founders fought a war. From what I see you’ve outlined passivity, there never would have been a need for Framers, just subjects to a person claiming his right to rule comes from God.

There was every attempt to deal with King George in a civil manner before this happened. The very level headed and very devout George Washington was a very large part of the reason.

In this case, I say those beating the drums for war ought to look at the civil Constitution first.

Just DO it, states.

No one wants a war, we want the government to follow the Constitution. That said, the people and the states retain the right to defense of self and state.

So as I figured he is not looking to secure the border. By the way I was out of line about the name. My brother in law is Hispanic from El Paso. Like 10th generation.
