Doesn't matter who we put at the border if all they get issued are bean bag guns now does it ?
I shouldn't say that really because they do get issued real guns as well.

That puts the Border patrol agents in a bad spot.

When bean bag guns are the standard issue do you really think they are going to go head on with REAL guns used by the cartels ?

Border Patrol agent Terry had a bean bag gun people. He had NO chance.
They might as well stand down and walk away.

Bean Bags Fired First in Arizona Shootout Killing Border Agent Brian Terry - ABC News

B.S., the agents chose to engage with their baton round shotguns first, but the little detail you are leaving out is that when the illegal aliens engaged the agents -the agents returned fire with their long gun (M-4) and service weapon.

Your assertion that agents are sent out into the field w/ baton rounds only in their shotguns is absurd and completely misinformation.

I thought we were going to put up an electrified fence that kills people as soon as they touch it?

What does Obama want border patrol to do throw dirt?
It's crazy you think this is some sort of worthwhile source?

It's a blog post, that links to an anonymous post on a local union site, that doesn't include a single mention of any new Federal policy that we can verify. No data whatsoever.

Poor border patrol agent wants to be a SWAT team commando in real life.

Thanks for wasting 5 minutes of my day....lol

It's just the usual spin & twist to make it sound like "all they got is bean-bags".

This post is so stupid that only toddlers could take it seriously!!!

First, the link clearly states that the site "IS NOT AN OFFICIAL BORDER PATROL WEBSITE"!!!!...it is the personal opnions of unidentified "border patrol" agents.

Secondly, these annonymous "agents" post no supporting evidense of their assertions that they are "to run".

Last but most note worthy as to the lunacy of this post is the usual lies and b.s. that the conservative taliban like to spout.

Pres. Obama wants a "racial war"...
Pres. Obama wants to "destroy America from within"..
Pres. Obama " hates this country"..
Pres. Obama "ignores the constitution"..

well, one thing we do know is president obama wants to buy a lot of ammunition:

ATK has secured a major Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity deal to supply up to 450 million rounds of .40 caliber ammunition to the Department of Homeland Security . . . a 1 year contract with four option years. . . We are proud to extend our track record as the prime supplier of .40 caliber duty ammunition for DHS, ICE,” said Ron Johnson, the president of ATK’s Security and Sporting group.”

if the agents are supposed to run and hide, i wonder what they need all that ammo for?
