In case you were not aware of this Texas is one of the stingiest states for social welfare programs especially for illegals.

In case you were not aware Border Patrol and ICE are Federal agencies operating under DHS and DOJ mandates to catch and release.

Governor Perry has already been told by the DOJ in the past to "stand down" when he wanted to send the Texas National Guard down to the border to help the Federal Border Patrol agents.
Perry encouraged in-state tuition for illegals. He even made a point of bragging about in the debates. He IS part of the problem.

This. The illegal population in Texas has exploded during the time Bush and Perry were in the governor's mansion (or Rick Perry's very expensive rented accomodation after the governor's mansion burned down).

The state government in Texas has pretty much encouraged this.

Same applies to all Illegal Aliens. We will be swamped with Illegals from all over the world. It's not just a south of the border problem

True but it is easier for those who border our country to get here.

It's really too bad they didn't enforce the borders before we had a 'HUMANITARIAN CRISIS'.

So now that we have one...

Will they NOW enforce the borders?

My guess is no just as long as we have those in congress with a vested interest in illegal aliens that benefits them one way or another.

It's going to take a public uprising to stop this.

For sure, but while were watching for the obvious, we get the radical Muslims sneaking in from Somalia, the ME or the former Soviet states... Boston Bomber types

They are also sneaking right in with illegal aliens supposedly coming here to work. We need to stop "all" illegal immigration and that means securing our country in every way. No one is suggesting that we only guard our southern border.
