Armed illegals stalked US Border Patrol Agents
Five illegal immigrants armed with at least two AK-47 semi-automatic assault rifles were hunting for U.S. Border Patrol agents near a desert watering hole known as Mesquite Seep just north of the Arizona-Mexico border when a firefight erupted and one U.S. agent was killed, records show.
A now-sealed federal grand jury indictment in the death of Border Patrol agent Brian A. Terry says the Mexican nationals were “patrolling” the rugged desert area of Peck Canyon at about 11:15 p.m. on Dec. 14 with the intent to “intentionally and forcibly assault” Border Patrol agents.
At least two of the Mexicans carried their assault rifles “at the ready position,” one of several details about the attack showing that Mexican smugglers are becoming more aggressive on the U.S. side of the border.
Not good for the agents however who provides the drug precursors to Mexico for the burgeoning and meteoric proliferation of crystal-meth. U.S. pharmaceutical companies and the government knows this and does nothing about it. The cartels make hundreds of millions per year off of this one of their larger business endeavors. There is statistical data that shows the dramatic importation of these drug precursors to Mexico. If the U.S. government or the pharmaceutical companies wanted to put a stop to this they could, but there is to much money to be made. I am in No means trying to justify the targeting of border agents, it’s unfortunate they are being used as pawns in this deadly financial game.
