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…
Okay…So I missed writing the Fume last week. I knew you could Fume on for ONE Friday without me.
If you think that the FCC’s backing down and running away with their tails tucked hastily between their collective legs regarding the proposed Government-Goons-in-the-newsrooms-of-America debacle is the end of it…
It’s been yet another week of unbridled, lobotomized, liberal lunacy and they don’t show any signs of slowing down.
Well, there was John Kerry, in Indonesia, the only country, it seems, to whom Obama owes his allegiance via his citizenship, telling them, and us, “In a sense, climate change can now be considered the world’s largest weapon of mass destruction, perhaps even, the world’s most fearsome weapon of mass destruction.”
As we have an election in a short 8 ½ months, primaries in just 3 months and, since we haven’t done this sort of thing for the last 15 months or so…I thought now might be a good time for a refresher course in how to LOSE an election.
The Dictator and his regime just keep rolling merrily along, telling their subjects that all is well and Obamacare is the greatest thing since the invention of the banana republic.
