A woman and two children drowned in the Rio Grande on Friday while trying to enter the U.S. near a section of the southern border where Texas National Guard soldiers have prevented federal Border Patrol agents from processing and rescuing migrants.

    Are you suggesting the Border Patrol get into a shooting match with the TX national guard? Both sides are armed. It deserves a court case, not a gun fight.

      While a woman and two children drown? With all due respect, you can shove that court case right up Abbott’s ass.

        Shut up. It sucks. But, risking an actual shoot out that could kill several people, possibly even collaterally damage, isn’t an acceptable alternative.

          Imagine this is what people said before the revolution.

          So you’re fine with people dying, as long as they’re migrants.

            Violence is not the answer. Advocating for violence is even less of an answer.

              I’m not advocating for violence. I’d prefer seeing the Texas National Guard stand down and the Border Patrol rescuing the drowning people.

              Other folk have other opinions, apparently.

      Don’t bring a gun to a tank fight. Don’t even need to shoot back, just roll over them if they don’t get out of the way.
