Illegal immigrant pulls gun on Border Patrol agent VIDEO
Washington Times ^ | Thursday, November 29, 2018 | Stephen Dinan

Violence against Border Patrol agents continued to spiral with authorities reporting one agent held at gunpoint by an illegal immigrant in California, and two agents in Arizona facing attacks by hand.

California agents responded to two illegal immigrants detected crossing the border on foot. The first man was apprehended without problem, but the second, Hector Rodriguez-Chavez, aimed a loaded Star Echeverria pistol at the agent.

The agent and Rodriguez struggled for the gun, and even the help of two other agents was not enough to pry the weapon from Rodriguez's hand.

Finally, one agent used his taser, who dropped the pistol and stopped resisting.

Agents later found that he'd been deported back to Mexico at least five times, dating back more than 20 years [most recently in October 2017.] He also had convictions in the U.S. for violent drug crimes and firearms offenses.

"Our agents' vigilance prevented this dangerous person from illegally re-entering our communities," said Rodney S. Scott, chief agent for the Border Patrol.

The Arizona assaults happened Tuesday.

In one, agents were trying to arrest four illegal immigrants when 25-year-old Guatemalan man, threw dirt in an agent's face then swung his belt to use buckle as a weapon.

He was subdued and put into a vehicle, where he then spit in another agent's face.

Hours later another Guatemalan man was caught sneaking back in by an agent and his canine.

The 36-year-old man started striking the agent, but was eventually subdued. Authorities discovered he'd been deported just six months ago.

One agent was taken to the hospital for injury evaluation.

The assaults came after Sunday's violence at the border when Agents fired tear gas repelling the incursion-that's immigrant-rights advocates condemned saying those involved in the assault should have been welcomed and allowed to apply for asylum.

“...Illegal immigrant Hector Rodriguez-Chavez, aimed a loaded Star Echeverria pistol at the agent. Luckily they were able to get the gun Gerido Rivera is this one of those poor immigrants just wanting a better life? Maybe you cold sponsor this person and put him up at your house....”

A POS like that wouldn’t last 2 seconds around here pulling a cheap azz pistol like that...he’d be one, stone-cold dead, illegal MFer. And don’t bother calling SWAT, the BP, etc., just send the coroner with a body bag. We’ve already had trouble out here (attempted breaking & entering, stealing stuff) with these illegal SOBs. Both times, they were held at gunpoint till LE arrived. Those ones were the lucky ones. That POS...probably not so much.

The taser dropped the pistol?

To all concerned regarding
article. I am required to “excerpt” from Washington Post https://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/nov/29/illegal-immigrant-pulls-gun-border-patrol-agent/?fbclid=IwAR2429HFoyM_6iR-U19YkYaxcCZzaWqUTfcMbpvCNgnm4R7OIhzueW2wGksarticle

I feel however removing a random words gets the posted thread under 300 words excerp, while still touching on main points. I’m sorry, no offense intended to anyone.

No, they don’t leave you a choice. The whole culture of these Latinos is one of lawlessness, violence, deviousness, sloth, selfishness and sexual deviancy. Combined with an over arching sense of entitlement and a ingrained and officially indoctrinated hatred of The Untied States and Americans. Hate to beat a phrase to death but they’re arrogant beggars. I hate them. They’re destroying our country. They’ve certainly destroyed their respective countries and show not the slightest inclination to fix them. I don’t particularly like to hate either. Hate is a very heavy emotional investment but I invest wisely, if you know what I mean.

How many years of “journalism” school does one need before he can write a sentence as pathetic as, “Finally, one agent used his taser, who dropped the pistol and stopped resisting.”

Actually it is impossible to derive a meaning from that miserable string of words but the closest I could come would be that the TASER dropped the weapon and stopped resisting.

Apparently the English language is no longer taught in America.
