A 19-year-old Guatemalan immigrant has been shot dead by a US Border Patrol agent.

Claudia Patricia Gomez Gonzalez died on Wednesday in Rio Bravo, Texas, after an unidentified agent came across her and three others whom he suspected had entered the country illegally.

As he tried to take the group into custody they reportedly charged at him and tried to attack him 'using blunt objects'.

you are preaching to the choir here i live near the san diego tijuana border and have many friends who are BP agents/retired. I know first hand how dangerous it is to be a BP agent. one of my friends had a steel plate put in his head after he was hit in the head with a rock by an illegal. he lost his sense of smell and was very fortunate to have lived. if other agents were not nearby, who knows what would have happened, he could have died or been killed in a remote canyon.

It’s the agenda of “Open Borders” groups (soros funded) have them convinced if they continue to push and protest the borders will be opened one day.......And because ‘emotions’ run high in their cultures (just on a normal day) you can expect LOTS of crying and waling....and of course the Dems play on that.......

This is not going to go away any time soon......though a few dead bodies might be persuasive for some to stay put.

Better said..this is no longer Obama’s America! You don’t get a free pass and our agents will shoot if you attack them!

Good on this border agent!

By the way that gal was and is dressed in her photos she wasn’t suffering in her country. Those type of garmets do not come cheap. Further if she was college educated as her parents say.... somebody’s got cash.

I think the plan was she had the education so the family sent her ahead to ‘anchor’ herself with work(income) in the US then the rest of the family would enter and have a place to go.

I assume that President Trump yanked the Obama chicken-run rule for our agents to run away from danger.

Found the link again:

https://www.therebel.media/ezra_levant_show_may_25_2018

The article contains garbage in it such as that we need to “respect migrant rights” and “stop treating migrants like animals.”

Ugh.

I’d bet money that you are right. I have no sympathy for them at all. Play stupid games....

I am not arguing one way or the other, asking people not to rush to judgement. it is IMO unlikely a 15 year veteran is going to shoot someone without cause.

I don’t. If she was attacking him, then he had every right to defend himself. If he shot her and she wasn’t hurting him, that would be wrong.

I will wait for the details. If he was in danger, then he can certainly defend himself. If he wasn’t, he shouldn’t have shot her.
