Naco Border Patrol agents pinned down by automatic weapon fire
BORDER PATROL Local 2544 ^ | 2-18-04

Posted on 02/18/2004 10:25:09 PM PST by TERMINATTOR

Naco Border Patrol agents were pinned down by automatic weapon fire from cowardly assailants in Mexico on Tuesday, February 18th. The agents, who were pinned down for 5 to 7 minutes, were not injured and were unable to return fire. The shooting took place in broad daylight and the shooters knew exactly who they were shooting at. After the assailants left the area, they fired on other Border Patrol agents nearby. Hundreds of shell casings were reportedly scattered about area after the shootings. More to follow.

Well, blowing up the USS Cole was an act of war. Nothing happened except they sent in a domestic law enforcement agency, I think.

Blowing up the US embassies in Africa was an act of war on sovereign US territory. They sent in a domestic law enforcement agency on that one (the FBI).

As soon as Mexico gets some WMDs then it will be an imminent threat, I guess.

If this is true, this is probably drug related.

Solution: provide our border agents with automatic weapons and grenades. Then, the next time some jackass thinks he's got something to prove, lob a few fraggers at 'em and see if they've still got the cojones to take pot shots at el Gringo.

"one time only Ping for US-Mexican border insanity... "

===

Feel free to ping at other times too.

Talking about border insanity, did you see:

California Coastal Commission Rejects Plans For Border Fence

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1080982/posts

"California regulators on Wednesday denied a Department of Homeland Security's request to fortify the westernmost stretch of the U.S.-Mexico border, setting the stage for a possible legal battle between the state and the Bush administration.

The California Coastal Commission, in a 10-0 vote, found that the harm the project would cause to sensitive habitats outweighed the security benefits provided by filling in canyons and erecting additional fences along the final 3 1/2 miles of the border before it meets the ocean. "

Hey rabid greenies, if you put up a fence to stop the illegal Mexicans from tromping over your precious preserves and littering and dumping their waste on them, don't you think that will HELP?

This union has unaffiliated itself with the AFL-CIO and speaks regularly against it. Is that good enough for you?
