Are the Mexicans using "sewage warfare" against U.S. Border Patrol agents? A top Border Patrol agent warns that something isn't right out there.
Christopher J. Harris, senior patrol agent at the Border Patrol and a top official with Local 16 of the National Border Patrol Council, told an American Freedom Alliance conference Sunday in Los Angeles that the situation in Imperial Beach, where Mexican raw sewage is being pumped onto San Diego beaches with impunity, is more than just ruined beaches and noxious smells, as the media have reported. It's a toxic hazard to those who serve in the capacity of border security.
"Agents come to me with chemical burns, with shoelaces and bootlaces that have dissolved. You don't get to that area on border," Harris said, without encountering the toxic sludge.
For Harris, who works with the Border Patrol's union, it's an unacceptable risk for agents whose jobs already are some of the most dangerous in the country. Referring to the rocks and gunfire border agents regularly encounter as they go up against human traffickers and smuggling cartels, he said: "We are willing to be assaulted, but we not willing to work in a chemical dump," he said. "It's chemicals in four or five areas, and you can smell it."
He said that thus far, there has been very little official interest in resolving the situation as the Mexicans continue to release the toxic sewage into San Diego.
"It's chemicals. We need help with that and ask the EPA to come forward and do something for that," Harris said, but nothing so far has been forthcoming.

I got a better idea!
Sniper rifles
With tracer rounds....
I wonder if this is the result of the EPA’s chemical spill.
It’s chemical/biological warfare. Destroy the production facilities.
The EPA doesn’t want to do anything about this.
Back around 1994, the city of San Diego offered to help pay for better sewage treatment in Tijuana to prevent these spills. The Clinton EPA sued to stop San Diego claiming that better sewage treatment would have adverse effects on the bacteria that feed upon the sewage. The suit was dropped but the EPA position should be clear.

That’s not sewage. That’s chemical warfare. Too bad we’re so busy with the War on Statues right now.
EPA: Carbon Dioxide is a pollutant but sewerage is not.
Hated that about Mexico....sewage floating in the ditches along the highways.
When Texans talk about “filthy Mexicans,” it’s a description of the way Mexico has used the Rio Grande as a cesspool for raw sewage for a hundred years. This is like having a ditch mark the border between your yard and your neighbors yard, and he and his large family use the ditch as their open cesspool. They are really lousy neighbors.
The sewage is an act of loooove.
Sanitize the affected areas with napalm.
Raw sewage and burnt meat, the mingled smells that remind me f Mexico.
Flush that swamp, flush that swamp!
You gotta be chitting me.
I lived in that area in the 60/70’s and as I remember that river was always a hazard—full of ah, sewage. The river passes through Tijuana then north across the border and along the border out to the sea. So in the 60’s the US, maybe California, build a sewage plant for them.
A few Lazer Guided 2000 pounders just South of the offending sewer pump station should stop the discharge and make a big enough hole for the sewage to pool in instead of going to the Beaches in CA.
And be sure to label it as “Environmental Security Work” not an act of war.
Right now sewage is pumped from TJ to Point Loma for treatment. If we didn’t do that the problem would be worse. It is pure extortion. A failed narco state literally is crapping on us.
