Illegals Bearing Giant Venezuelan Flag Attack Border Patrol:
Whenever the subject of immigration comes up, some on the Left and even a few on the Right are quick to counter any thoughts about increased crime, human trafficking, narcotics, or the cartels with the factoid that most immigrants are fine people who just want to come to the United States for a better life. And I am sure that applies to many who cross the border. I do business with people who are new to this country, and there are undoubtedly illegal immigrants who come to the U.S. with the best of intentions.
But what do we make of the situation that unfolded on Monday in El Paso, Texas? Fox News reports that a large number of illegal immigrants rushed the border bearing a massive Venezuelan flag.
The attack occurred after a protest over national boundaries. During the onslaught, a border patrol agent was stuck with a flag pole, and another was hit with a rock. In response, agents fired pepper balls at the crowd, which dispersed on the Mexican side of the border.
If people are coming to the United States because they are yearning to breathe free and just want a better life and a piece of the American Dream, they don’t begin their entry into the United States with a protest, they don’t assault immigration officials, and they do not try to plant the flag of their country on American soil. That is not migration. --->READ MORE HERE

Border Patrol fires non-lethal rounds at mob of migrants who tried to rush into US with with giant flags:
US Border Patrol agents in Texas fired non-lethal projectiles at a mob of immigrants who tried to rush the border near El Paso with giant Venezuelan and Honduran flags.
Chaos broke out as a large group of immigrants who have been camped out just a few feet from the US-Mexico border tried to cross the river together, Border Patrol told The Post in a statement.
“One of the protesters assaulted an agent with a flag pole, at which time agents responded by initiating crowd control measures,” it said.
“These measures included the use of the authorized less-lethal force pepperball launching system.”
Video taken by bystanders showed Border Patrol agents firing the rounds at migrants as some run back through the river to Mexico.
Leading up to the pandemonium, dozens of Border Patrol agents had formed a line to try to deter them, reported the El Paso Times. --->READ MORE HERE
