Trump Should Deploy U.S. Military “Wall of Troops” to Secure Border. Latest Shooting of Border Patrol Agent Shows This is a War and Requires a Military Response
by Stewart Rhodes
Tuesday morning, June 12, 2018, between the hours of 0330 and 0430 Arizona time, a Border Patrol Agent in the Tucson Sector was ambushed and shot repeatedly. He survived the ambush only because he was wearing rifle plates that protected his torso. As Breitbart reported:
[T]he Border Patrol agent was shot in the chest and back as well as in the hand and knee, but heavy plate body armor successfully stopped the shots to the chest and back.
This shooting occurred on the Chilton family cattle ranch, which is on the border with Mexico. As the Associated Press reported:
An Arizona cattle rancher says that the shooting of a U.S. Border Patrol agent near the boundary with Mexico happened in a remote part of his ranch that is frequently used by drug and migrant smugglers.
Jim Chilton tells The Associated Press in an interview that a Border Patrol official sent him an email Tuesday morning informing him the agent was alone when he was wounded on his ranch, and was struck in the leg and the hand.
First, let us all thank God the Border Patrol agent survived the attack, and let us keep him and his family in our prayers, asking God to grant him a speedy and full recovery.
It just so happens I was on the Chilton ranch the night before (Monday night), along with another Oath Keeper, Kait Hylton, and we were visiting with Jim Chilton and his lovely wife, at their home. They gave us a very sobering, detailed briefing on just how bad it is on the border. This horrific attempted murder of a Border Patrol agent on that same ranch the very next morning further confirms just how dire the situation really is.
