Yeah, Mexicans just want to do jobs that Americans will not do. Yeah, right! Unless those jobs the Mexicans will do include trying to cross the border into the U.S. illegally (for whatever reason) and assaulting our U.S. Border Patrol! On top of that, Congress just passed a budget which only funds a single-tier fence and you want to bet it will be as successful as the last fully funded fence in 2006 which Homeland Security stonewalled! Congress, ‘Homeland Security’ and the SOB (Son Of a Bush) do not want a fence built and are apparently OK with our Border Patrol agents being assaulted. Why are ‘We The People’ OK with that?
This in from Associated Press dated 12/19 entitled, “Border Patrol Says More Agents Attacked“:
The U.S. Border Patrol says its agents have been assaulted 250 times along the Mexican border since Oct. 1, a number that represents a 38 percent increase from the same period last year.
Officials say the rising violence indicates smugglers are frustrated and more desperate as it has become more difficult to cross the border illegally. Agents have been attacked with rocks, vehicles and Molotov cocktails.
“Criminals are discovering they can no longer operate with impunity in certain areas and are systematically being prevented from using the border for their criminal activities,” Border Patrol Chief David Aguilar said in a news release.
The agency’s San Diego sector, which encompasses western California, reported the steepest increase. Assaults more than quadrupled to 110 from Oct. 1 through Sunday, up from 24 in the same period last year.
The agency recently equipped agents in California and Arizona with a powerful, pepper-spray launcher that has a range of more than 200 feet. It has also fired tear gas into Tijuana, Mexico, several times in response to attacks.
Overall, the Border Patrol said agents were attacked 987 times during the 12-month period that ended Sept. 30, the highest since it began keeping track in the late 1990s.
