No, but I think they are taking alot of heat right now because of the focus on the Mexican Drug Cartel situation. Some politicians need to step back and reevaluate the situation before making statements. There are 3 other states bordering Mexico, and I'm sure they have their share of problems also.
Build the border wall. It will promote employment, and stimulate the economy there. Dig the foundation deep and use lots of rebar. Then all we have to do is deploy more coast guard units to critical areas. It's not that hard to figure out? We can send a crew into outerspace, but we can't build a wall to keep our troublemaking neighbors out?
Oh, and before we start bashing Texas, and other border states about illegal guns, drugs, or aliens, maybe Mexico ought to step up to the border and take their illegals, drug and gun runners back with them, and put them in their own prisons. I'm tired of paying taxes to support illegals in our prison system.
