re: Gov. Greg Abbott is sending tanks to the border

I would doubt that they are sending Abrams main battle tanks. The media probably doesn't recognize the difference between an Abrams and an APC.
I was on an Abrams tank for over 20 years. If they are sending actual tanks, they are GREAT at target or "migrant" acquisition. 2 independent thermal sights and you can see people from a long way off.
And fear. The fear on people's faces when you are rolling around in a 72 ton beast is palpable.

This is good insight. Thanks

Turns out that no M1-A1s are being sent. Not even M-60s. It's only APCs, and not even M2 Bradleys. Nope. It's a few antiquated M113's.
I am AMAZED that there are so many people who are unable to differentiate between a tank and an APC. Probably couldn't tell the difference between a semi and a Prius either.
