FYI, a point regarding the use of “border guard:”
“The men and women who work as agents are not border guards. They are Border Patrol Agents. That is what we call ourselves, and we hope that you will honor this. All three words are capitalized because it is a title: ‘Border Patrol Agent Smith is a seven year veteran of the Border Patrol.’ The term border guards sounds very East German to us.”

I think I see part of the problem here. Bruce Jenner calls himself a woman, doesn't make it so.
Fact is the USA needs border guards, most especially along the southern border. The very definition of a nation state includes the defense of its borders. Perhaps the ones that feel dishonored and offended by the term border guard, which is a concise job description, should look to another career as travel agents or somesuch.
