ProtectYourTexasBorder.com: Texas calls for federal help in border security

[alp227]

"Every day and night, violent Mexican drug cartels are invading Texas farms and ranches, threatening the lives of our fellow citizens and jeopardizing our nation’s food supply. Each moment Texas does not receive the resources needed from the federal government, is another opportunity for the cartels to strengthen their chokehold. This is the true reality of life along the Texas border." --Intro page to ProtectYourTexasBorder.com, linked from Drudge Retort.

The site is also reported on the news as linked by Retort: "New website emphasizes need to protect producers near the Texas border" (Lubbock Avalanche-Journal)
