SAN YSIDRO A Border Patrol agent shot and killed a man who was trying to enter the country from Mexico Tuesday night during a fight that left another agent injured.
The agent spotted three men who were crossing at the border fence just before 7:30 p.m. and called for assistance, San Diego police homicide Lt. Ernie Herbert said.
Border Patrol Agent Michael Jimenez said the location was 1.6 miles west of the San Ysidro Port of Entry.

Give the shooter two cartons of cigarettes, a promotion, and a change of venue.

I guarantee you, EVERY TIME a NY cop shoots somebody, it’s investigated, but probably not by the same department.

Thanks for the clarification, but in all honesty, I read “Mexican” and “shot” and that’s all I wanted to know ;)

Headline: “Known Drug Smuggler killed when Engaged in Deadly Attack on US Border Patrol Agents”
Truth in reporting is a good thing.

“Do not throw rocks or objects at officials or at patrols since this is considered a provocation by those officials. “
It is deadly force to throw rocks at the Agents and officers. That is called “stoning” in another part of the world. Same thing. Throw rocks at Agents and officers, expect deadly force in return.

Still deadly force being used against the Agents. The Agents reacted appropriately.

A rock or piece of wood with a nail in it, thrown from above, is a deadly weapon. The agent doubtless feared for his life and the lives of his colleagues. His action was justified.
In any case, if these people had not been trying to break into our country, no one would have been hurt. Let us watch this: remember the shameless spectacle in which every Democrat in Congress cheered the corrupt president of Mexico as he attacked the people of Arizona. Today's Democrat Party automatically sides with foreign criminals over honest Americans.
