    So, these agents hear about an emergency situation at the park, but when they get there Texas state cops don’t want to let them enter, so the agents… Just give up and go home? Gosh, no wonder people in Congress are talking about more funding for securing the border, we apparently don’t even give our Border Patrol firearms if this is how easy it is to stop them.
