It seems to me a latino running the boarder patrol is like having a Muslim run Gitmo.

Why? There are plenty of border patrol agents of Hispanic descent in the Border Patrol.

A muslim can choose to follow the death cult. A “Latino” can’t choose his/her ancestors. There’s been many loyal Americans with Hispanic names/descent.

There’s not much similarity at all.

The Texas border has some of the most patriotic Americans you've ever met.

That was my first thought—someone put the fox in charge of the henhouse here—this pile of dung has no intention of enforcing the law per his duty, and he never did, and I would bet money that whoever put him there knew it—someone forgot to tell Ramos and Compean, that they were supposed to be just window dressing. This is a crime and a shame. What can be done to get rid of him?

A conflict of conscience on the border / ...dilemma for Hispanic agents
May 15, 2000

Who they are, what they do a dilemma for Hispanic agents.

DOUGLAS - For some U.S. Border Patrol agents, it’s a source of pride. For others, it’s an inside joke. And for still others, it’s a dirty little secret. That’s the kind of tug-of-war that Hispanic agents, some of them naturalized U.S. citizens, face every day: a covert conflict between who they are and what they do. About a third of the 8,300 Border Patrol agents on the force are of Hispanic origin. That’s the highest percentage of any federal law-enforcement or civilian agency, said Rob Daniels, Border Patrol spokesman ...

Ramos and Compean are proof enough that ethnic background isn't the issue. The lack of will to enforce the border comes from the gringo in the White House.
