I definitely applaud the move, but it's beyond me why border states haven't been doing this all along.
Money it's going to cost an estimated 12 million a month to do this but it has reached the point where there is no choice now the federal government won't act so the states will have to. This may have a cascade effect if the illegals are having a harder time getting into Texas they will likely head for the other border states who may in turn call out the guard as well.
Who better to police the borders than those who live in the states?
Texass doesn't have the money.
Blue states will have to pay the bill.
Locals already do guard the southern border. They work for Border Patrol.
This is nothing but showing off by Perry and everyone knows it.
