America's Third War: A New Eye on the Border

"Once the photograph is verified as illegal activity, it’s passed along to local and federal authorities monitoring the border.

“We’re providing the imagery so they can make the best choice on how to respond to criminal activity that we’re helping to detect at the state level, ” said Capt. Aaron Grigsby with the Texas Rangers."

Oh wow. Then what? You mean they aren't going to actually send somebody out to arrest them and throw them out? Then what's the point of the cameras? Somebody's getting paid though for all the high tech, right? And meanwhile they are spying on everybody within range of the cameras. Never mind a little mission-creep.

Protecting the border means boots on the ground, catching people trying to cross and then throwing them out again.
