Just a few days ago, U.S. Border Patrol Chief Michael Fisher, issued a NEW DIRECTIVE called, “Use of safe tactics and techniques.”
Before I get into it…Allow me to bring up something which, on first blush, would seem to be totally unrelated.
Free-Range Chickens.
Those are chicken dinners running amok without any supervision…Free to roam fruited plains from sea to shining sea.
They are not to be confused with SMART chickens which, were they really, wouldn’t be caught dead in the frozen foods section at your local market.
Now then, back to the NEW DIRECTIVE as issued by the U.S. Border Patrol.
It is an engraved invitation for “FREE-RANGE ILLEGAL ALIENS” that permits them to RUN AMOK without fear of being rounded up any time soon.
Here are the lily-livered details…
(1) In accordance with CBP’s current Use of Force policy, agents shall not discharge their firearms at a moving vehicle unless the agent has a reasonable belief, based on the totality of the circumstances that deadly force is being used against an agent or another person present; such deadly force may include a moving vehicle aimed at agents or others present, but would not include a moving vehicle merely fleeing from agents. Further, agents should not place themselves in the path of a moving vehicle or use their body to block a vehicle’s path.
But wait, there’s more…
