Merry Christmas to the Border agents from the MSM. Just in the past few days the news media has begun a cycle of news accusing the agents for not following the golden rule and other hideous crimes. Read on and see what I mean.
[CNJonline.com] What would Americans think if Mexican officials routinely fired pepper spray and tear gas into California neighborhoods as a way to root out, say, smugglers who were operating from the U.S. side of the border?
How would we, as Americans, feel if our houses were damaged, our neighborhoods evacuated and our children endangered because of the aggressive tactics of the Mexican police or military?
Most Americans would no doubt be outraged. American officials would likely demand that Mexico cease and desist from such behavior. The anger would be perfectly justified.
Mexican officials are not attacking the United States, but U.S. Border Patrol agents are attacking the Colonia Libertad neighborhood of Tijuana. Mexicans have every right to be as angry as we would be if the roles were reversed.
Here’s one from the Party for Socialism and Liberation. They must fax out the talking points.
[PSLWEB.org] U.S. border police have been handed even more powerful weapons to terrorize immigrants and Mexican residents at the heavily fortified border between the United States and Mexico.
The Border Patrol claims that its new pepper spray guns that shoot 200 feet, tear gas, flash bombs and rubber pellet sting ball grenades are defensive weapons against attacks from the Mexican side of the border. Two-thirds of these so-called attacks on border cops are rocks. The rest are mostly physical fights.
The Journal Times reports that the agents were being belted by residents for taking up positions right on the border.
When people are already tense, it’s reasonable to ask why anyone would increase the risk of that tension exploding in violence. Thus it’s reasonable to ask why U.S. border agents are antagonizing the citizens of Mexico.
To discourage illegal immigrants along the Mexican border in southern California, U.S. agents have been taking up positions right on the border, within shouting distance of Tijuana. Youth from ramshackle Mexican neighborhoods have been pitching rocks at U.S. agents or shooting at them with slingshots loaded with ball bearings. The Border Patrol said in a news story that its agents have been attacked 1,000 times in a year, and about one in four attacks happens along the 10-mile stretch of border starting at the Pacific Ocean. A union official said one reason for the frequent attacks is the relatively recent policy of putting agents right on the border.
While one might criticize the tactics used it certainly doesn’t address the thousands of jobs every year that illegals are stealing from Americans right here in Ohio. Packed with cheap “new id’s” every time they get caught they take decent jobs Americans would take and do take when given the opportunity. There are several right here in Northwest Ohio where this is happening. Americans who are working in these places need to speak up and help put a stop to this madness.
