"Two men arrived at local hospitals for gunshot wounds after the shooting, according to The Mercury News. One of them is believed to be the driver of the U-Haul, the outlet said, citing sources."

Guards need more range time...............

The Democrat Left is extremely violent and lawless.

I would bet on drug cartels seeking revenge on the Coasties for hitting drug boats (never mind that was probably Navy/AF/CIA).

The dumbass with the video camera in front of the U-Haul is lucky he didn’t get his head blown off.

[TheThirdRuffian]

Lot of engine protecting a driver in a box truck.

Plus, I’m presuming he’s a Mexican so his head probably only cleared the dash by 3-4 inches.

As I understand it, this base is supposed to be the staging area for the national guard
if President Trump sends them in.

I assume that’s why these cretins are giving it so much attention.

[TheThirdRuffian]

Makes sense, too.

Classic VBIED profile.

Surprising (or not) that nothing was said about explosives found in the truck (or precursors)...

Don’t know the details but aimed live fire at a demonstration is a small reminder to all the protesters that their protests are not just pure theater and that the law men are just part of it in different costumes with a different role to play, there are legal limits that can mean they get shot and killed.

I wonder how the returned vehicle inspection at the UHaul store went.

Key info buried in the story:

“The incident followed a protest outside the entrance on Thursday, during which demonstrators attempted to block U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents from entering the base, according to WABC-TV.”

[Paladin2]

The ICE demonstrators need to gather outside the Biden houses and outside Mayorkas’ house for causing the trouble by leaving the Border open for so long.

A decent Sweep and it’s All Good.

Did you view a video? All I get is a sanctions video when I click on the source video link.

[TermLimits4All]

My question is why wasn’t this vehicle surrounded immediately after he pulled forward and stopped?

[j.havenfarm]

And there going to lose their damage deposit on the truck, I think

[V_TWIN]

No issues. The video ran as expected for me
