Judge Orders Texas to Remove Buoy 'Death Traps' From Rio Grande

"Gov. Abbott announced that he was not 'asking for permission' for Operation Lone Star, the anti-immigration program under which Texas constructed the floating barrier," Ezra wrote. "Unfortunately for Texas, permission is exactly what federal law requires before installing obstructions in the nation's navigable waters."

Ouch. This is from the judge's ruling.

Glad to hear it. Dangerous booby traps are widely banned for good reason. Submerged barbed wire is not ok.
