Several shows on FOX News have been reporting that there have been over 670 thousand crimes committed against Texans by illegal immigrants over the past 7 years. I suppose like Benjamin Netanyahu, Rick Perry has had enough of the administrative efforts to force him to exercise restraint. If one can believe the news, both Texas and Israel are under siege by destructive forces that threaten the safety of their citizenry. Folks, when one no longer feels safe, that is no longer freedom. In fact, the primary function of your federal government is to defend this nation's citizenry against all forms of threat, both foreign and as is the case in Texas, domestic. I can only imagine the anxiety of Texans whose daily routines are overshadowed by the threat of violent crime. Moms and Dads trying to earn a living are worried about the safety of their kids at school and each other. And, who knows what new threat may have crossed the border into Texas during the night?

There's a reason that each state has a national guard. "The Army National Guard (ARNG), in conjunction with the Air National Guard, are the primary United States federal and state military reserve force. They are simultaneously part of two different organizations, the National Guard of the Several States, Territories and the District of Columbia (also referred to as the Militia of the United States), and the National Guard of the United States. The Army National Guard is divided into subordinate units stationed in each of the 50 states, three territories and the District of Columbia, and operate under their respective governors." [2]WIKI

One could hardly fault Governor Perry for calling up guardsmen in an effort to stem the invasion. The whole idea of living in sovereign America is the guarantee of safety. Life in an orderly and lawful society where Mom and Dad can get up and get the kids off to safe schools and where they can report to work in safe work environments. All of this in a land where equality of opportunity is guaranteed to everybody who is here legally. By contrast, not the present day land of special interests, where classes, minorities and in many cases immigrants, are afforded life's needs by government, at the expense of those deemed to be little more than pinatas or cash cows. The media have done their job to at least one extent, in widely exposing the fact that terrorist sleeper cell members and lone wolf insurgents such as Boston Bomber and illegal immigrant Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, are here on the taxpayer dime.
