Border Violence Spilling Into Texas

I talked to someone on the front line of the revolution yesterday and he alerted my to the fact that Texas has gone on alert due to the violence along the Mexican border where 7000 people have died in gang violence over the past year. Yet the news has been silent on the whole situation. My Texas contact also reported that the violence has moved into Houston and yet there is no apparent action by the federal government. Where is the Department of Homeland Security? They released this report about gun seizures on the US side but a couple AK's and some reloading supplies are a drop in the bucket when the bad guys have RPG's.
