How do U feel about Assaults on border agents increase at what advocates call an imaginary line where all may enter at will ? The U.S. Border Patrol says agents in the Tucson Sector are seeing an increase in assaults along the border.
Last fiscal year agents were assaulted 261 times; the year before that there were 216 assaults reported. Agent Mike Scioli says the 22 percent increase is a sure sign the smugglers are frustrated by increased manpower, infrastructure and technology.
There are 3,100 agents patrolling Arizona’s 262 linear miles of border with Mexico.
Scioli described some of the attacks, “It starts with a rock and when we talk about rocks they’re about the size of my hands. Other things range from Molotov cocktails to, it’s gross, but honestly, they’ll even throw deceased animals over in bags and then we’re talking about physical assaults out in the desert.”
For the person on here who stated it was the fault of the border fence I only have one thing to say, Get the facts! Read!
the border fence is helping in a small way, it is slowing the drugs coming across, and MX has started stepping up to the line to help stop the drugs coming into the US. That’s one reason for the violence at the border. Another reason is they know our Gov will prosecute agents who use force to protect their lives, because they believe the criminal over the agent. And they wonder why the turn over is so high.
And of course if they are the “victim of a crime” the Gov gives them a work permit and allows the illegal to stay.
The violence against our Border Patrol is in a way good news. It means the word is getting out “we will stop you”. If these illegals weren’t criminals or didn’t have criminal tendencies would they be so quick to assault? But lets give them a path to citizenship because they are “just looking for a better life, and they aren’t criminals”.
I’d call assault a crime, which makes them criminals.
