Guess we will have to see if this helps anything. If nothing else Texas law enforcement has a great new toy to play with.

Texas advertises themselves as a "whole nuther country".
looks like they really do "grow'em bigger" in Texas, and I don't mean the boats.

Bout time. 
Where is old Joe when we really need him?  Alaska Independence    Calling Illegal Immigrants "Undocumented Aliens" is like calling Drug Dealers "Unlicensed Pharmacists"
What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

It's been two months since the first boat was comissioned. I'm suprised Obama & Company haven't been trying to shut them down like they have done Arizona.

I had the opportunity to see one of the boats about two months ago, my thought..........."Oh what a beautiful bass boat for fishing the border lakes especially Lake Falcon."
