Thank God for FLIR
I'm all for the Governors decision to act. Now every other border state needs to fall in behind Perry. It won't happen, but it's nice to "dream". I also agree with the sentiment that 1,000 Guardsman is not enough, but I'm not up to speed on unit strength in that neck of the woods.
As far as the $12m per month, I cannot even begin to comprehend the costs of housing, feeding, issuing medical care, etc. to tens of thousands of illegals per month with that number growing by the minute. Even if the presence just sends the message "Not here, not anymore" then it's a win in my book.
