SOME STATES JUST GET IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME.

 A friend of mine lives over there in "don't mess with me " Texas and sent me an email about  the problems out on Falcon Lake.  Seems the drug runners and Mexican Mafia have taken over the lake so that good god fearing folks can't go fishing without being robbed or shot at.

Well it seem that the State of Texas has decided to step up to the plate and do something about the problem, they ordered up a 36 ft Gun Boat that the Texas Highway Patrol will patrol the lake with with Mounted machine guns and powered by 3 - 300hp Mercury outboard motors w/ Thunderbolt Ignitions.

 You may have to hit forward for the pictures to come up.

 

 

As many know, we here in Texas have a border problem. Lake Falcon is a lake that borders Texas and Mexico (The lake is right on the border, half in Texas and half in Mexico ).

 

Last year several boaters were killed by drug cartel folks from the other side. We are now aware that the automatic weapons used in the killings were probably from "Fast and Furious".

 

When Texas joined the Union as a sovereign nation in 1836 we retained the right to have a Navy to ward off the Mexicans since the United States refused to protect us.

 

This is our first Naval vessel of this century, small but potent. It will soon be safe to fish and boat on the Lake Falcon this summer. Just about every Texan is prepared to be in a gun fight, and you can't have enough guns.
