Today in California's San Diego County an on duty Border Patrol Agent was murdered in cold blood. After correctly identifying a group of drug smugglers or illegal border crossers, Agent Robert Rosas routinely called for backup and proceeded with his job of rounding up as many international law breakers as possible. This time however, after pursuing one of the many thugs scattering in all directions, the Border Patrol Agent was shot in the head just doing his job!! This is an outrage for not only Americans but also for the good Mexican people who make up some of our hardest working law abiding citizens here in the states.

Did this group consist of members of one of the infamous Mexican drug cartels or independent drug traffickers? That would be my first guess due to the violent nature of the incident. Or maybe it was a human trafficking ring. We may unfortunately never find out as there were no suspects apprehended in the crime. Being shot to death on the Mexican border to me is a horrible place to say goodbye to it all.

Personally I only see bad things coming of this. Border Patrol agents will definitely be ready to shoot and kill anyone that even appears to pose a threat and the slightest miscommunication in the coming months may cause the lives of innocent people crossing the border in search of a better life away from the corruption and violence that has spread across Mexico.

Illegal border crossing, however, is a crime nonetheless. I agree that if people are caught and do not surrender and especially if they put themselves in a violent altercation with armed law enforcement than they are getting exactly what they asked for.

So when it comes to the Mexican cartels smuggling in Kilos of Methamphetamine and Cocaine into our neighborhoods here at home, we need to be ready to open fire. These people are killers at best and don't hesitate to kill their own neighbors at home let alone a U.S. civilian or Border Patrol Agent. And lets not forget the thousands of lives lost and damaged by the drugs and drug addicts right here on our soil. Somebody has to put out the fire.
