Texas Legislature sends $1.54 billion bill for border barriers to Gov. A...

New Texas law allows prosecution of migrants entering US from Mexico

Children Used For Money

So for each child they receive $400. Now there is another “wet foot dry foot” policy. That group of people are paid with a refuge check $2400 a month plus free health and food stamps, We are just a gift tree and they all know it. These checks need to stop and funds need to be redirected to the BORDER WALL.

House Fire

 

March 2, we came home to find this starting up across the street from our home on Wood St, in Royse City, TX.  I dialed 911 and for what seem a good, 10 mins. was on the phone, screaming for them to get the FD up here........mind you it is on 3 blocks away.  By the time they finally went through the channels, the police made it here first and blocked the street.......the house is a total loss,, and also 2 vehicles.  The family was in Dallas at the time of the fire, the cat didn't make it but the dog and ferret made it out alive.  We are waiting for more info, in order to give the results of the possible reason.  This was a family of 2 adults and 1 teenager.

Buses Bringing Illegals Here

Over 80 buses arrived in Piedras Negras Coahuila Mexico yesterday. They were placed in a holding area but there were several violent fights and many left, crossing the Rio Grande.  This information, was given to me today, by a lady who lives in Eagle Pass, TX.  How can they cross the Rio Grande, without permission?  Isn't there enough border guards, to control and prevent this?  I don't think so......now, trouble will really begin.  Looting, raping, robberies, you name it......

Toronadoes

By now most of the country has heard about the tornadoes, that hit the north central Texas areas on April 29th.  It was a horrible disaster, that occurred, when at least 5 tornadoes hit several different areas in a matter of 2 to 3 hours.  Heavy rains, high winds hit our areas,  but we were spared the devastation our neighbors received.
Photos coming out of the areas hit were sad and many are without homes and businesses.  4 are confirmed dead, and at least 50+ injured.  This comes within a month of the high winds that hit a neighborhood in the northern part of Rockwall, TX.  It destroyed several homes, in the housing section there.  They were worried about more devastation, should severe weather come through their area again.
Our prayers go out to the people who are suffering from the 29th's devastation.  Most are just glad to be alive and able to recover and start again.

Crimes

Yesterday, was a bad day here in the State of Texas.  Several crimes against people were committed which, left a trail of death and injuries to contend with.  A Paramedic, was shot in Dallas, Tx, when he responded to a 911 call of "self inflected wounds" at a residence.  The person, shot the Paramedic, when he arrived, and police searched house to house, for suspect.  His was found later in a house, with another victim, dead from apparent suicide.
Then a student at UT @ Austin, was stabbed by another student,  leaving the victim dead at the scene.  The attacker, was taken into custody, at the scene.
Another report of a lady being shot several times in a mall parking lot, resulted in a fatality, with the attacker, getting away. Police are still searching for this person, who is believed to be out of town.
I believe there was another incident reported at a high school campus in Ft. Worth, Tx,  The details I'm not sure of at this time.
I wonder what's going on with these people?  Are our American/Texan people, going crazy?

More Street Photos

 

This is one is up the street from my house, and the lot is vacant.  So, I wonder what they are doing there?

 

Here they have brought in a big sewer suction truck, and you can see all the other equipment, just on this one house and yard.  Wow, what will it be like at my house, when they start this side of the street?
