Armed border agents are being directed to flee the scene whenever threatened by illegals or drug traffickers, even with weapons as harmless as rocks.

DHS tells American border guards to run away from illegal immigrants | The Daily Caller

Top administration officials have directed 21,000 border patrol officers to retreat whenever illegal immigrants throw rocks at them, and to avoid getting in front of foreign drug-smugglers’ vehicles as they head north with their drug shipments.

“Agents shall not discharge firearms in response to thrown or hurled projectiles… agents should obtain a tactical advantage in these situations, such as seeking cover or distancing themselves,” said the instructions, issued Mar. 7, under the signature of Michael Fisher, chief of U.S. Border Patrol.

Agents were also directed to keep their weapons holstered when drug smugglers drive by.
 
Your democrat government in action. Get as many drugs and illegals into the country as possible.
 
Are the even allowed to have the weapons loaded, or do they have to carry their one bullet in their breast pockets, like Barney Fife?

your quote doesn't quite say what you claim it does.

further, nobody should be killed for throwing rocks - and that was happening. a directive telling the border patrol not to shoot at pebble throwers is not crazy.

The DHS thinks that armed agents must avoid conflict, turning them from border guards into doormen.
 
DHS is only concerned with angry, conservative and or Christian white people. That is DHS main enemy. Forget a couple of mooslims with some fireworks and a pressure cooker. That only takes 5000 armed, militarized jackboots to take care of and assassinate their friends with a 1 bullet in the back of the head. DHS needs the full force of the U.S. military and police to deal with the 150 million or pissed off Americans. That will take machine guns, dogs, barbed wire, body bags, and internment camps.

the quote says when they have rocks thrown at them firing their guns back is not acceptable and that they should get the advantage through other means. it doesn't say to let anyone go, or to stop pursuit, or to even avoid the conflict.

just that thrown rocks shouldn't be a death sentence.

Why don't you go stand outside and have a couple of your friends hurl a few rocks at your head and let us know how that turns out for you, dipshit.
 
Unless it was a hailstorm of rocks being hurled by slingshot or being dropped on your head I can't justify deadly force against rock throwers. Warning shots should suffice even in the off chance 1 might kill you.
 
LMAO! I was wondering what they really said and how this thread was going to turn into one side or the other being soft!

Actually the rules of engagement in the war on terror have been crap under Bush and Obama. They have just gotten worse under Obama.

In the Middle-East it is a death sentence.
 
Threatening to gut our military is apparently not enough. Now we turn our Border Patrol agents into pansies as well.

This administration is not happy unless it's making America look weak every damn day.

"Pebble throwers"? What an idiot. They aren't throwing pebbles, pebble brain. They are throwing rocks, some the size of baseballs and basketballs. Imagine what kind of injury that inflicts.

I know...you don't care. just like this administration, you are all for the dumbing down of this country!

actually, i don't care. anytime it's reported in the news that our border patrol agents gunned down somebody for throwing rocks it makes them look bad. better to have a policy that prevents such things - but mostly i don't care how big the rocks are because nobody should be killed for throwing a rock. ever. if its that big a deal, let's invest in some helmets.

also, nobody is throwing basketball sized rocks.
