Border Patrol agents in Arizona are blasting their bosses for telling them, along with all other Department of Homeland Security employees, to run and hide if they encounter an "active shooter."
It's one thing to tell civilian employees to cower under a desk if a gunman starts spraying fire in a confined area, say members of Tucson Local 2544/National Border Patrol Council, but to give armed law enforcement professionals the same advice is downright insulting. The instructions from DHS come in the form of pamphlets and a mandatory computer tutorial.

“We are now taught in an ‘Active Shooter’ course that if we encounter a shooter in a public place we are to ‘run away’ and ‘hide’" union leader Brandon Judd wrote on the website of 3,300-member union local. “If we are cornered by such a shooter we are to (only as a last resort) become ‘aggressive’ and ‘throw things’ at him or her. We are then advised to ‘call law enforcement’ and wait for their arrival (presumably, while more innocent victims are slaughtered)."

The FEMA-administered computer course, entitled “IS-907- Active Shooter: What You Can Do,” is a 45-minute tutorial that provides guidance to all employees on how to recognize indicators of possible workplace violence and what to do should their office be invaded by gunmen and focuses around three main options; either evacuate, hide out, or in dire circumstances, take action.

I know they're coming to get me.......will we mobilize a strong nation out-cry to forestall the Obama administration until we can get to the ballot box?  There's a gun to our heads, the only way to lock the trigger is by unlocking the ballot box with patriot votes for freedom and liberty.

The Obama Administration not only wants to sacrifice border guards, but any and everything that stands in their way of "transforming America" into an economic shell, slave state dependent on the teat as made available by a socialist, communist, Marxist apparatus of death to liberty and freedom.

Harry, The  Forestall  is  building,  130  days  left, `The  questionable  Vote  count..!! No  Fairy Tale Here..!!

[SUSAN MARIANO]

WHAT!     IS THIS CALLED '' OPEN SEASON''   WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THEY SAY 10 AGENTS  GET 'SHOT'' IN THE BACK AS THERE RUNNING AWAY?  ''WHAT WOULD OBAMA SAY', HOW ABOUT OLD LADY JANET, THE ONE THAT KISS'S OBAMA'S FEET..WHAT ARE ''WE THE PEOPLE'' GOING TO DO.....ANSWER PLEASE,  WE NEED ANSWERS NOW.....GOD BLESS THE MEN WHO GET SHOT IN THE BACK.

[Steven G. Elliott]

I can not see how we will ever have a legal election with all of the illegal voting that goes on.

[Harry Riley]

We energize voting patriots in such large numbers it will be impossible to impact the outcome with illegal votes.  Read the HLS pamphlet.......they're in our face attacking freedom and liberty...if what we see the Obama Administration doing and it doesn't get America on their feet peacefully, then....................

[Harry Riley]

Pat........we all due respect, I know and I hope you know that what you suggest is impossible with current leadership, short of divine intervention, which we're woefully short of because we neglect the creator role in our nations founding. You outline symptoms of the problem but the cure must be a leadership replacement and return to God as our foundation...

[Harry Riley]

Well, outline how we do it with some level of confidence that it's possible "in the immediate future".  I don't see it in your comment.

[Harry Riley]

Pat...while it may be politically correct for some to initiate impeachment, there is no way you could ever get the Senate to conduct a trial, even if the House of Reps voted impeachment. The Senate won't even pass a budget, which they are required to do under the Constitution. It's a non-starter with a few months until election.

I was just on the street for two hours with a sign "LAST INDEPENDENCE DAY FOR AMERICA??".  To young people came up to me (one military man and one female) probably in their mid twenties and asked "what is this all about". I was astounded and had to discuss all the threat to our freedom and liberty with them...ending with "you must vote" a leadership change in Washington, STate, and local.

Having spent time in the fox-hole, witnessing the destruction, death, and maiming, the last thing I want see in America is a shooting situation...we have to do everything possible to bring about a peaceful change of government in November.We must tell everyone of the threat to our constitutional government, and ask them to tell everyone they know......  Many will say that's not possible...if it isn't then "we" haven't gone the violent route....but if it's pushed on us, you can be certain the domestic enemy of America will be defeated by millions of patriots compared to a few cowardly progressives.

The last hope we have for a peaceful transition of government is the ballot box and God's blessing that allows it to occur.  Once we change the guard, then we all must totally unforgiving of politicians that do not immediately take the action to reduce spending, stop the debt escalation, reduce taxes, reduce government, root out corruption, repeal Obamacare, and generally get out of our life. 

We're in agreement on things that "should" be done but the question is how and when.

If the Nov. election fixes this, I'll be totally surprised! I live in a small town, there are now illegal alien families moving in at record numbers. This small town is wondering what the hell happened. They go to bed one night and the next morning, it's a whole new town. But yet, I talk with people and they still praise the Democrat party saying it's the party for the people and then parrot MSM talking heads about "how horrible the R party is because those folks have no heart. They are only rich people concerned with their wallets." They don't like what they see and yet they believe lies from the very people bringing about what they are disgusted with. Do they want to or will they hear the truth from anyone? Nope - they only listen to their favorite news anchor and only want to think positive thoughts (another marxist tool - no reality thoughts - only happy thoughts - they thank their psychologist for giving them happy pills so they will only think positive thoughts). (I recommend all Patriots get some psychology text books and read the garbage in them now....you will indeed see another communist foothold in our country when you read some of those text books that our kids are obsorbing)

Do I have faith in the elections? NOPE! I talk with people daily that show me we have an overwhelming number of citizens who are not informed voters and are blaming the wrong people for the marxist changes in our country. 

Now - How do we fix the illegal alien infiltration of our country? Now - not well, hum, maybe, hopefully, we can count on a despot gov. to ensure voter fraud won't be big enough in Nov. Violent Illegal Alien Infiltration is on my doorstep now!

The government is promoting cowardice, desertion in the face of the enemy, what soldiers used to get shot for.  With this advice and training even a progressive should be able to figure out what the 2nd amendment was intended. 

Law enforcement, as my police officer son said, is reactionary; you have to protect yourself until they get there. It is time to prepare or you will be the statistic from an event where those tasked to protect & serve went into hiding when they could have done the most good.  Nothing but trained cowards for public servents according to IS-907.

Semper Fi

Runaway and hide?  WHAAAAAT????

[Ed Watts]

This will be the basis for our rainbow military's new rules of engagement.  The only real change will be in training the troops to "scream in a high-pitched voice" while running.
