CLINT - A New York-based company has proposed building a 3,500-bed shelter just outside the boundary of this bucolic farming town to house unaccompanied children caught crossing the border illegally.

If the project goes ahead, the so-called "Abraham Lincoln Transitional Lodge" would become the largest permanent shelter for unaccompanied children in the United States - with more than 10 times the capacity of the biggest state-licensed facility now operating in Texas.

If the people will not resist this invasion as they did in Murietta, the nation is finished. You cannot absorb the Third World without becoming the Third World

I wonder where all the Washington swells are planning on fleeing to when they finally succeed in overwhelming the system?

I know what I plan on doing if I ever see one.

Does the cost breakdown show whether Razor or Concertina Wire will be used to secure the entire perimeter of this new OBAMAVILLE?

So.... is any of this Impeachable?

Punishable?

Or does that have too much risk in it that the Media would pound us with?

Turning Texas blue, with 3500 kids/gangbangers and their extended families settling in. If Tx goes Democrat the country is finished. But our dimwit senator Cornyn doesn’t get it.

building a 3,500-bed shelter

Building? Seriously? Building? How long would that take? Isn't a bus ride home cheaper and easier? Oh, I know! How about we build a fence?

We tend to get cavalier and distracted with all of the *chaos* we're being subjected to, daily....thank you for being a voice of reason on this thread/topic.

I have friends who live in this (proposed site) area. I’ve sent them articles about this and, while they seem upset/miffed about it, they don’t care to put time/energy in to trying to stop this. Unbelievable.
