NEAR SAN MIGUEL, Ariz. - Two suspected illegal immigrants are being treated for gunshot wounds at a Tucson hospital after being shot by Border Patrol Agents early this morning.
It happened on the reservation near San Miguel. Border Patrol tells us at least two agents were forced to fire after being pelted by rocks. At this time, Border Patrol does not think the suspects received life-threatening injuries. No agents were injured.
The FBI is now investigating. No other information is available at this time.

Attempted murder charges to be filed soon against the agents. Personally delivered by Eric Holder.

“The FBI is now investigating.”
Now there’s trouble.
Those Border Patrol agents are going to be charged.
After all, being pelted with rocks isn’t life threatening..
/ sarc.
Besides, Obama and co are upset with anything that shortens to the initials BP.

Investigating what? To see if they are illegally here? Hopefully, not the one doing it's job.

I’m guessing the border patrol agents will get 20 years.

At this point I say screw it.....just shoot them as they come in!
They, and our “federal government” have been SO lawless, why the heck can’t we.
Bring back the Old West.....at least until we get things under control.

Unfortunately, you're probably right. Holder should investigate the law-breakers in the WH.
I am so sick of the term illegal immigrants. They are CRIMINAL BORDER CROSSERS.

All joking aside, these guys are gonna get strung up like the previous Border Patrol guys who were doing their job.
(Compean and Ramos iirc.)

Hey, if they don’t tamper with evidence and lie about it, they should be ok. (Unlike Ramos and Compean).

That’s also assuming teh Feeb will do an honest investigation.
Remember, Holder is their master at the moment as well.
And the official position is that it’s okay to violate FEDERAL immigration law.

If they are being investigated by the FBI, those border agents are toast.
