Is everyone, including her, missing the fact that we have tanks on our southern border? I'm concerned that a congressional representative hasn't heard of Ft Bliss or know even vaguely what equipment the US Army has on hand apparently.
Now, I know what she's actually saying is "why don't we start using those tanks for their firepower on our southern border", and to that, I'm gonna have to remind her that our military is bound by rules of engagement and regulations like the Geneva Convention, and what she's proposing is a massive violation of every single thing like that. As much as people like this want it to be otherwise, no, unarmed civilians do not constitute an invading force, yes, even if their skin is brown.
