CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico (AP) -- Mexicans are seething over the second death of a countryman at the hands of U.S. Border Patrol agents in two weeks, an incident near downtown El Paso that is threatening to escalate tensions over migrant issues.
U.S. authorities said Tuesday a Border Patrol agent was defending himself and colleagues when he fatally shot the 15-year-old as officers came under a barrage of big stones while trying to detain illegal immigrants on the U.S. side of the Rio Grande.

Never come to a gunfight with stones, even “big stones.”

"Stay on your side of the border Amigos and its not a problem."Some pink mist would do the trick. No need for a fence.

Mexico should boycott El Paso. And Arizona. And California.
And New Mexico stole their name. They should boycott them too, just on general principles.

Global reality: Not a good idea to throw rocks at people with guns. Just ask the Palestinians.

What the hell. Projectiles coming toward law enforcment is enough to get shot. Shut the hell up Mexico. Arizona has had enough and it’s only a matter of time that Texas does the same. (Chris Rock on Jay Leno will be on you tube tomorrow, I suggest FReepers watch it).

“anger high”
An interesting theme in the reporting of this incident.

I’m so sorry, but a heck of a lot of 15 year old MEXICANS have killed AMERICANS.
Good grief.

Why isn't U.S. anger HIGH over the murder of a rancher on his own property by illegals. Or the murder of a Border Patrol agent by illegals. Lots of bluster when one of theirs gets hit, but not a word when they kill Americans. Piss off illegals. Stay on your own side of the border.

I would love the GDP number from the illegals. Then let’s broker in western union. Don’t tell me somebody doesn’t have it.

Mexicans are seething... Muslims are enraged...
Feminists are furious...
Liberals are simpletons.
