And how is this not murder?
Wait for the details before judgement please.
Sounds like good shooting to me!
Illegals are just that, NOT LEGAL in the US.
Stealing services and benefits paid for by US citizens.
Bringing illegal contraband into a sovereign nation.
Kill them at the border, instead of waiting until they invade your home.
That is the responsibility of the federal government.
Not deciding how you will receive health care.
Are you aware of why they were being pursued? No.
So why don’t you take a deep breath and wait to explode tomorrow, when we know the full story.
[And how is this not murder?]
The rationale is that a fleeing vehicle is a danger to other motorists.
We don’t have enough information at this time. Seems highly unusual they would open fire unless the smugglers attacked the game warden or the DPS thought there was a high probability that the fleeing vehicle was going to kill or seriously injure someone.
If they were getting shot at?
We can shoot invaders.
Perhaps the Texas authorities believed the driver was reckless and would hit a family of 4 crossing an intersection.. We don’t really know, do we? Reserve judgment. I give Texas the benefit of the doubt. They look after their LEGAL CITIZENS unlike most states and our Feds which always give the illegals the benefit of the doubt.
I am sure they were someones son....
“I’m not going to get into Anwar al-Alwaki’s son … I would suggest that you have a far more responsible father if they’re truly concerned about the well being of your children. I don’t think becoming an al-Qaeda jihadist terrorist is the best way to go about doing your business.”
It’s their daddy’s fault according to the White House...
hardly almost sorta kinda kidding
Typical liberal kneejerk reaction.
Stay there - don’t move here.
And how is this not murder?
in liberal California probably would be,in Sovereign State of Texas not so much a homeowner can shoot you for stealing from them on their property...remember they have a fast lane to Old sparky where california takes 20 years...
Recently here in my hometown on the Jersey Shore(not the tv show) a middle-aged woman, a wife, mother and grandmother was killed in a head-on collision by car driven by a drunken illegal alien from Mexico. How is that not murder? Count me as an American beyond fed up with Mexicans invading and destroying my country.
They were fleeing arrest. Their death was the result of their attempt to evade capture.
Their deaths are no biggie
I would bet at some point the driver endangered the lives of either law enforcement or civilians, that allows use of force nearly every time. I don’t mean to say it is always used but if a suspect puts someone else in danger then use of force policy usually covers the situation if shots are fired at the suspect.
For example people who “run” Ports of Entry at the border in a vehicle- if they don’t endanger anyone while doing it, no civilians or CBPs in danger- firing upon them to stop them is not allowed but if the port runner tries to run over CBP or civilians while “running” the port then shooting the suspect driver has happened and the shooters have been cleared.
More info is needed on this situation, but I think the most likely thing is the reporter did a poor job- or deliberately made it sound like it is ok to hunt people down and shoot them to be sensational or lack of knowledge.
