Military surplus? 'Send it to border'


 MRAP

The United States has an abundance of surplus military equipment, as evidenced by the guns, grenade launches and specially built military vehicles being distributed to police departments across the nation.

And there’s the well-documented problem of a porous southern border, through which tens of thousands of illegal aliens are sneaking into the country.

So why not send one to the other and solve two problems, asks a privacy activist who has written about the militarization of police forces.

“Here’s a better solution for this cast-off and transferred military equipment: Let’s put it at the border,” said Cheryl Chumley.

“Why not put this military equipment to good use and go after those trying to enter our country illegally – those who actually pose a risk to our nation?”

  2. I'm sure Obama would use it to help move more illegals and arm them for a life of crime. Since they are not citizens they can own automaic weapons and 30 round clips.

  3. Instead, what we are doing is selling land and scrapping this material. From brand new big screen TV's to Humvees, we are giving (selling with perks?) to the Chinese for natural resources. These sites, if owned or managed by American citizens, would draw the ire of the EPA and other government agencies for breaking laws. However, the Fed Gov is silent on these ops.

    1. Yup, just like some local governments are in CA where illegal aliens live among a host of violations of housing codes including dangerous ones, but not a word is said........

    2. And a 15 mile strip (on their side, of course) along the entire length of the border. "No man's land"

    3. One mile would more than suffice, if I was in control. :)
