I grew up in the RGV (Rio Grande Valley) and Starr is a county not a city. There are 3 border counties in the RGV, starting at the coast and following the Rio Grande inland are Cameron, Hidalgo, and Starr. All this to say traditionally, that this far inland, the less populated it becomes. Also very hot and very dry for most the year and long stretches of open dry land with not a lot of traffic and hence, wide open for smuggling. So bordr walls are NEEDED so very much. Ranchers and families have to carry arms for defensive reasons even at home. Fixing fences is HARD WORK has changed from something you do well so you don't have to do it for a long time. Now they do it every week due to coyotes (human smugglers) driving their cars thru them to make the getaway from the border area. For them, it is imperative to get as far away from the desolate area to one with traffic or a safe house asap. So they make roads where there were none. Oh yeah, usually in a just stolen car which is a sharply increasing problem plaguing the people that live in the populated areas. Imagine waking up to a group of usually men, showing up in your yard at 3 am. You hear something, wake up, peak outside to see this group. Are they there to do You harm? Or do they just want a drink of water from the hose? Imagine this almost every night. Signs, homemade barricades, even dogs get overwhelmed. This is no way to live, anywhere, but especially in Texas USA. We NEED THE WALL NOW-ALL OF IT. Being from Texas USA, my gut tells me any wall that can keep people out can convert and be used to keep people in. So I was slow to embrace them. But after seeing the things I have seen and knowing the things I know, This insanity of humanity must stop.
