That's what our ranchers will be facing if the feds don't get off their asses, or if the feds have their way in trying to impede states' actions.

Maybe this will open the eyes of the Mexican government and make the realize that their citizens are willing to fight for the country. Let them have guns and they will help you against the drug lords!
