“It is always comforting to know that for those of us who carry a weapon when we are off-duty, if we should encounter such a situation, stop a shooter and save countless lives, we can look forward to being disciplined or fired by the Border Patrol because we should have run away to hide and then maybe thrown objects at the deranged killer instead of taking action and stopping him with a firearm,” the union local's website says."


I really feel for these guys, nothing like making an already frustrating job just flat out impossible...Geesh.

DHS needs to be rid of, just like the TSA.

we need some folks with some nuts in power to take a fucking stand and start delivering with a sledgehammer.

I shouldn't have read that on a upset stomach.

Wow, it actually says as a last resort (if running away and hiding doesn't work) you should, "Act with physical aggression and throw items at the active shooter."

Does lead count as an item? If it is thrown at say, 850fps?

Well knowing that I can not depend on a "Border patrol" agent to save me, guess I will just have to stick to my trusty G19. Another good reason to "arm" yourself! Sucks for the LEO bound by this BS........

Better to be fired by one than carried by six.

+1. I travel a lot, and I'm sick of Security Theater.
