Cartel Smugglers Becoming More Aggressive Against Border Agents

    MCALLEN, Texas — A recent border shooting where cartel smugglers fired at U.S. Border Patrol agents points to a disturbing trend as organized crime members appear to be getting more aggressive against law enforcement.

    The most recent attack took place on Friday morning near in a rural area not far from Los Indios international bridge. The attack took place when agents assigned to the Harlingen station responded to a vehicle heading towards the river in what appeared to be an attempt to collect a load of contraband. Authorities tried to stop the fleeing vehicle, but it headed back towards the river as the smugglers tried to escape into Mexico. During the escape, unknown men in Mexico began to fire at law enforcement on the U.S. side. No agents were hurt in the shooting.

Perhaps it's time to supplement Border Patrol agents with U.S. troops, armed and at-the-ready...

At the very least nat'l guard. Treat these thugs like enemy combatants, and let the Mexican govt know that we hold them responsible for the cartel's drug soldiers as if they were they're own attacking the U.S.
