Yes, it was probably migrant workers. They were illegally migrating to bring dope over the Rio Grande.

Rocks can be thrown! Duh

Illegals don't normally attack. Let 15 guys ambush your arse with baseball size rocks and let's see how you fare. Are get jumped and rushed by 15 guys with rocks in the dark. You approach with a light. They can see u long before you see them. Jumped, end of patrol officer.

I kind of think they were probably tracking through a ditch,or creek bed,and got attacked from above. That's the best way to ambush somebody.
The officers aren't going to fire,unless they see their target.

The area around Van Horn is extremely rugged.I wouldn't want to be tracking someone there.
You go around the bend of the trail,and they just rain rocks down on you from above.

Honestly every time I see one of these Border Agent deaths, I conclude that the guy was probably wrapped up in the dope game and the Cartel snuffed him out.

The temptation is just too strong; besides, how many people crossing the border do you know that carry a gun?

Easy to profile since the camels give them away

Dumb. And lots of people cross armed. Why not? We provided them with thousands of weapons to cross with. Check out the Fast and Furious case.

How is that strange? Border hoppers are hardcore felons. It's time to heavily militarize the border patrol agents

Respectfully, Arabs/Middle Easterners transiting into the US at Mexican border crossings is suspicious as frick.

The issue was in his opinion, some of the searches were "extrajudicial" and based on nothing more than being Arab. US citizens, etc.

I thought it was weird he even ran into the problem myself. Didn't think there would be any crossing.

Barely seen this on the FB Feed. Must not be important according to society.

fricking disgraceful. Rest In Peace Agent Martinez.
The people south of that border are dangerous. Look at the murder rates in the various countries down there. Venezuela is constantly evolving even further into socialism. The drug trade is kicked up now more than ever. For some reason, the terrorism down there is never talked about. Beheadings, hanging people from bridges, etc. If that was Pakistan or Afghanistan right at our border, do you think we would just let this unsecured border shite continue? frick those people. Dreamers, yeah right.

My uncle was run off of his hunting lease in South Texas while hunting for whitetail two years ago by some cartel nuts. They pulled AR's on him and his friends and told them they had to leave so they GTFO.

Tons of south Texas landowners/farmers have cartel guys that pass through their property.

YOU are a Fvcking idiot man. Just because there are a couple of bad apples in the crowd doesn’t mean we are bad apples. Federal law enforcement officers are being hunted down like game animals for them having to rethink there plans on how to cross dope and illegals. Illegals themselves might not carry weapons but the coyote do carry especially the ones backpacking dope. Border patrol agents are out numbered period because of the Obama regime cutting budget. Every day when illegals are rounded up you can believe there are 20-1 or 20-2. In other words 20 illegals to 1 or two border patrol agents. And yes the media does not cover everything. Terrorist from the Middle East have been caught in high numbers around the Arizona New Mexico and Texas borders. These people have sophisticated plans on targeting certain cities in the us.

Some of the news reports are reporting the perps were illegals. How in the world can they (media) actually know that considering no one was actually caught?
