The searches without probable cause that are happening within 100 miles of our border are the result of not securing the border.<br /><br />How does securing the border strip law abiding Americans of our rights?Charliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10839439008984987493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-12069195029003911812014-05-27T22:27:08.110-04:002014-05-27T22:27:08.110-04:00Why not cede the Hispanic areas such as Hidalgo co...Why not cede the Hispanic areas such as Hidalgo county to Mexico and build the fence to their North? This is what I would call a stategic retreat - lose a bit of territory to save the rest of the USA. And let's accept the facts on the ground - large swaths of Southern Texas are already third world in culture and government. We have already lost them, let us not throw good money after the bad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-48641176771519694072013-05-14T06:37:53.029-04:002013-05-14T06:37:53.029-04:00Send the military to occupy the border?

The area is heavily populated and has the largest inland ports. <br />Do people think the people who live in South Texas should have to subject themselves to military searches with no probable cause just because they live on the border? Why stop in South Texas? Have the military occupy Chicago and Houston - because there are drugs and illegals and cartels in Chicago, too! <br />The drug war is only stripping law abiding citizens of their freedoms and liberals and conservatives both fall for the hysteria and demand that the military get involved on US soil and start harassing US citizens. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-9805102219762928102013-05-14T04:56:04.235-04:002013-05-14T04:56:04.235-04:00Good Article!

We have to have barriers, fencing, checkpoints and manpower, or we have nothing much, really.<br /><br />And yes, the money really is a big deal. The cartels have Billion$ to operate with now. Billions and an infrastructure, including large cargo planes.<br /><br />So an ordinary barrier is just about as useful as a bunch of random logs thrown in the way. It takes a barrier with armed men on our side. Weak, corruptable men, will end up in the mix, to be sure, but not all. (BTW, that's just the age old problem of the military--turncoats--applied to the borders. UCMJ was written with that in mind)K-Bobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-41324539720675705772013-05-13T22:39:52.333-04:002013-05-13T22:39:52.333-04:00This chaos at the border is EXACTLY what the left ...This chaos at the border is EXACTLY what the left -- and Barack Obama -- want. <br /><br />It's just that darn impeachment thing that seems to be now interrupting the plan...TheFineReport.comhttp://thefinereport.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034478.post-87401990705399180392013-05-13T22:32:57.613-04:002013-05-13T22:32:57.613-04:00Shooting almost never causes fires or explosions. ...Shooting almost never causes fires or explosions. You've been watching too many silly TV programs and movies.
