According to reliable sources at the U.S. Border Patrol, a new threat has been issued by the Mexican drug cartels to kill an agent along the southern border sometime over the 4th of July weekend.
The killing would be in retaliation for the shooting of an alleged teenage human smuggler at the Texas border in June. The Border Patrol agent, who was being attacked with numerous rocks, shot at his attackers in self-defense and has been taken off front-line duty; however the Border Patrol agency is standing by the well-revered agent.
The teen that was killed had suspected ties to the local drug cartels and it appears the cartel bosses want revenge. Mexican media is also fanning the flames by calling for retribution. Inside sources say the latest threat reportedly could be anywhere along the 2,000-mile border that America shares with Mexico. Agents have been advised at daily musters to be extremely cautious when working near the border and they have stepped up their security accordingly.

How can this be? Obama told us that our borders have “never been safer”.....what a pathetic crock.
Obama will swiftly respond to this threat by issuing an order that gives the Border Patrol the day off with pay. Coward.
These are the maggots Barry wants to put on his “Superspeedway to citizenship”.
Easy to fix if Politikos are run over with logic and common sense.
Maybe they should knock off a few hundred carteli’s if they come over the border..
Does Mexico really want to go down that road? They got their asses kicked twice: Once by the Republic of Texas and the other by the U.S. Pershing would have made it a hat trick had Wilson not handcuffed him.
No, he will probably put up another sign.
Yikes. Their website is exploding. And, unlike some others I can name, it is developing naturally.
CA Rep Pete Stark says the border is completely secure, and the people who say otherwise are just wanting to shoot people.
Time to make the border a FREE FIRE ZONE. YOu attempt to cross you get shot. Period. You shoot at us, we shoot back. Period. And if the MexiCANT Government doesn’t like it they can kiss our A$$! We have kicked theirs multiple times in the past and will again if necessary.
If they do shoot a BP agent this weekend, I vote that we give Cinco de Mayo a whole new meaning.
We should have kept the northern half of modern mexico when we had it.

"confidential law enforcement intelligence in Arizona indicates that the drug cartels now claim control of the entire 80-mile smuggling corridor up to I-8 between Casa Grande and Gila Bend, and law enforcement says in essence they have ceded control of the once popular hiking and camping federal land. According to authorities, cartels claim "the border with Mexico now ends at I-8."
WTF!!!
He will address this after the holiday, he is golfing while on vacation.
The most worthless POS that ever soiled the whitehouse.
This kind of threat definitely raises the activity at the border to a military operation.
If these invaders do make an attack, I think that they definitely have to be pursued even if they go back across the border.
Obama doesn’t give a damn about this country. Hey, we’re ‘nothing exceptional’, no big deal. We don’t deserve the freedoms we have, electricity, gasoline, coal, heat in the winter, food on the table, jobs. The fruits of our labors really belong to the third world and it’s payback time. Bill Ayres expects 20 to 30 million Americans will have to be ‘eliminated’ once communism’s takeover is complete. No big deal. And certainly in the march of Progressivism toward Peace and Prosperity (however North Koreans put it...you can fill in the outrageous quotes), the life of one border agent is barely worth mention.
