Here's a thought- if we can't have a wall, let's draw chalk outlines all along the border. Might be a deterrent?

I have handled probably 10-15 live home invasions while a 911 operator in Charlotte. Some with shots fired.

I’m very suspicious of “why this house?”

Sometimes it’s a case of mistaken identity. The rest make me suspicious

How many times have you seen them come in heavy because there is a safe in the house being the target. Morons think they can get into a gunfight with a car and at best only get ten dimes. But when there is a safe there is a story right?

Nancy wants to mow the grass. Maybe all we needs is some lawn mowers for border security.

I can see why a homeowner unloads during a break-in after viewing last evenings news about Houston Texas Police being fired upon serving warrents by those selling black tar heroin.
