Police officers don’t run and hid. Against their very nature, not to mention their training.

Everyone of these guys should resign en masse. Then all go on a camping trip down to the border with their privately owned weapons.

I guess these guys are supposed to take their boots off and throw them. My wife said “We might as well put a sign at the border saying ‘Come on In’.”

If the policy is for the paid, professional, armed law enforcement officers to run and hide, where does that leave the citizens depending on them to deal with an active armed attack? The rest of us need to be armed and the policy pantywaists need to be terminated. They are a waste of our money.

Brian Terry was killed firing beanbags at fully-armed Mexican drug cartel soldiers. Hard to tell who the bigger son-of-a-bitch was: the cartelistas or Janet Napolitano. Holder was the biggest.

At least they could have called it “strategic withdrawal”

Policies like these were likely responsible for the two border agent’s deaths. Just like our military is forced to fight with one hand tied behind their backs; our border agents are given bean bags to use against assault rifles. What is going on? Is this their way of making law enforcement more hospitable to the perverts?

Dept of Homeland Insecurity, Jan “The Man” Nappie’s Agency? That bunch of Fast Food Industry Rejects?

So - what is surprising?

Border Patrol: "Maniac has responded with a scornful remark."

Homeland Secrity: "Approach, and repeat ultimatum in an even firmer tone of voice. Add the words, "or else"."

This is absolute CRAZINESS!!! Run away and hide??? Seriously? I can’t even believe they would JOKE about this reaction, much less put it into a real-world procedural instruction for our border guards! Imagine - in all the invasions throughout history what would’ve happened if those being invaded had “run away and hidden”!

I think the real reason for these ROEs on the border is because Obama is afraid of the Sinaloa Cartel members carrying the weapons HE sold them because part of the deal was probably freedom from harm during passage across the border. It’s not like Obama and his administration doesn’t have a history of making empty promises, if not outright lying. (I still think the person who shot at the WH some months back WASN’T with “occupy”, but rather was sending a warning from the Cartel - it’s definitely their “style” to make someone on their list realize they can get to you ANYWHERE.)

Can they not see the possibility of another Fort Hood massacre?

Of course they see it-—They applaud it.

They tell us who work on military installations the same thing:
1. Hide in a dark room and pile furniture against the door.
2. Keep the lights out and your phone off so it doesn't make any noise.
3. Cower under a desk.
4. If your lack of a weapon puts you face-to-face with the shooter(s), throw your stapler at him/them and attack with fury.

I guess that's why our celebrated border agent was armed with bean bags instead of bullets - the theory is that only the bad guys should have ready access to deadly force.

The Administration doesn’t want to offend Mexicans who may some day become Democratic voters.
