MCALLEN, Texas – A group of 47 migrants violently rushed an international port of entry near McAllen, Texas, and assaulted officers in an attempt to illegally enter the country.

The violent incident took place on Friday shortly after 4 a.m. at the Pharr International Bridge when a group of approximately 47 undocumented migrants tried to rush the border, information released by U.S. Customs and Border Protection revealed. The bridge connects the Mexican border city of Reynosa with Pharr and McAllen. The local TV station KGBT first reported on the violent rush at the port of entry. The migrants ignored the commands from CBP officers, ripped off the wire and barriers and then rushed towards the U.S. side of the border. CBP officers in tried to push back the men. However, the group began fighting and tried to rip the agents gear off as they attempted to rush the inspection area and enter the country. Authorities detained several individuals. It remains unclear if any will be prosecuted for the violent incident.

This part is a joke... UNCLEAR??? Violence against OUR CBP and it is unclear... """It remains unclear if any will be prosecuted for the violent incident." ........The only reason not to is because they are locked up in jail in Mexico

Every single one should have been shot. To believe attacking american law enforcement was the right thing to do. Imagine if americans did the same thing to other countries border law enforcement people.

You do this on Mexico’s southern border (hell, any border other than ours) you’ll be shot dead. The same should be true on our borders. Insanity. The democrat party cheers them on because they need the votes. Disgusting.

OK I HAVE NEVER SAID THIS.

I have INFINITE Christian patience with “unarmed” invaders.

I have changed my mind.

They should have been MOWED down with gunfire and should in the future just in case.

Many Americans like myself are slow to calls for violence.

But then once we decide there is a need for it, we WANT HELL TO RAIN down on the enemy.

Shoot illegals and send a sh.t storm to Iran from the air the likes that the leaders have never dreamed of.

I was patient with them too.

I’ve had it.

This is terrible. Those racist border patrol agents. Why didn’t they let those poor desperate people come in?

It is obvious how desperate they are if they are risking everything by going up against armed nazi border patrol guards to get into the U.S. concentration camps.

Where is AOC!?

They should be given a fair warning in their language that once they reach a certain point, they will be shot. Then, shoot any that commence to violate the warning. Videotape the whole thing...for the record.

I hope they got it on camera. It will make a great campaign ad for us.

At a minimum there should be a water canon and rubber bullets that can be used by the CBP.

It’s only going to get worse. Wait until the new immigration bill is rolled out, then we can all eat a Kushner sandwich.

You would think so, but we’d be called “racist” for it. Well, since we’re gonna be called “racist” anyway for anything that we do, just shoot the SOBs and get it over with..

This is like those movies and old dramas on tv where a nonviolent person (or a conscientious objector in the military) is taunted by the armed sadistic enemy, some Quakers allow others to beat them to unconsciousness, Friendly Persuasion with Gary Cooper, and others.

My cynical expression: Nothing was ever solved by nonviolence.
