How to Stop the Overwhelming Flood of Illegals – Is the Solution to Militarize the Border w/ the National Guard?

Many Americans are worried about the perceived “militarization” of the country — used military vehicles and equipment going to local police and sheriff departments; machine guns and a gazillion rounds of ammo bought for a wide range of federal agencies. (Read our previous posts on these concerns here and here.)
But many of these same Americans concerned about domestic militarization just might be in favor of a new proposal from a GOP congressman who wants to halt the flood of illegals by deploying the National Guard in border states.
Breitbart.com has details on the Southwest Border Protection Act of 2014:Arizona Republican Rep. Dave Schweikert has introduced a bill calling for at least 10,000 members of the National Guard to be deployed at the request of any governor of a state that shares a border with Mexico.The GOP congressman also wrote a letter to President Obama, demanding that he deploy the Guard to protect the integrity of the border with Mexico.
“The drastic increase of Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) being apprehended and detained by federal agents along our southwestern border is causing resources to be diverted away from other Department of Homeland Security (DHS) missions,” Schweikert said Tuesday. “This diversion is stretching the Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) thin and causing a troubling impact on our national security.”
[National] guard members would act to support border protection operations and would remain until either the United States gets control of the border or the governor withdraws his or her request for assistance.“Thanks to your Administration’s failure to enforce United States immigration law, our Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agents are being overwhelmed by the current surge in illegal immigration.”In a related action, House Republicans on Wednesday rejected two proposals from Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) to shift funds in the Department of Defense spending bill so that $41 million can be used to fund the National Guard for border protection.
