From the article:
"Border Patrol agents on Wednesday opened a gate that had previously been locked by members of the Texas National Guard, in order to allow a number of illegal immigrants deeper into the United States."
The proper response to the above:
The governor of Texas (or his designate) should have ordered the National Guardsmen to lock and load their weapons, march forward to the gate, order the border patrol out of the way, and then CLOSE IT AND LOCK IT UP AGAIN.
That oughta do it.
