Texas better devise a plan to use militias, incorporate then as special deputies, or if it does get nasty, they may wish they could get them, is the way that I see it. DPS turning the screws down will likely force some of the aliens to try another border, and I have no idea how many militiamen are out there. I would assume it may be first come, first sierve. If Perry wants to confront Obama, manpower will be key! Is history repeating itself? The Tennesseans helped defend the Alamo, this may be a case of all manpower happily received again.
