The state of Texas recently spent millions on 3 heavily armed gun boats equipped with 50 cal. machine guns. One for Lake Falcon and two on the Rio Grande. Please tell me why not a single shot was fired in response to being fired upon? What has to happen before fire is returned? What?

From the article:
“They were not able to spot their assailants.”

No sense in firing until you have a target.
