DHS TELLS BORDER AGENTS TO RUN & HIDE
“Good people sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.” – Orwell

Run and Hide in the face of Danger” – DHS to Customs & Border Patrol Agents

TELL CONGRESS - AMERICANS DON'T RUN & HIDE - FAX NOW

Military and Law Enforcement Officials understand that desertion of your post is a serious and severely punishable offense. Yet new FEMA and DHS are officially sanctioning desertion and dereliction of duty by instructing agents to run and hide from danger.
The DHS’ new mandatory class, “Active Shooter” for Customs and Border patrol agents, instructs it’s on and off duty personnel to literally “run away” and “hide” and only engage dangerous suspects if all attempts to “Run and Hide” have been exhausted.
From the mandatory FEMA-administered computer course, entitled “IS-907- Active Shooter: What You Can Do,”

Evacuate: If there is an accessible escape path, attempt to evacuate the premises.
Hide out: If evacuation is not possible, find a place to hide where the active shooter is less likely to find you.
Take action: As a last resort, and only when your life is in imminent danger, attempt to disrupt and/or incapacitate the active shooter
TELL CONGRESS - AMERICANS DON'T RUN & HIDE - FAX NOW

Customs agents themselves are disgusted with new Federal instruction. Brandon Judd, leader of Arizona’s Customs & Border Patrol Union # 2544 wrote “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’ 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)."

CBP Agents know they are obligated to protect the whether they are on duty or not. Given the new instructions, some are worried they will be punished should they do their job and take down a gunman as in the cases of Ft. Hood or Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

TELL CONGRESS - AMERICANS DON'T RUN & HIDE - FAX NOW

Another post by a CBP agent on the local Union #2544 website goes on to say “It is always comforting to know that for those of us who carry a weapon when we are off-duty, if we should encounter such a situation, stop a shooter and save countless lives, we can look forward to being disciplined or fired by the Border Patrol because we should have run away to hide and then maybe thrown objects at the deranged killer instead of taking action and stopping him with a firearm,”.

THIS IS THE AMERICAN BORDER and the force that keeps the bad guys out. Yet now our own Department of Homeland Security, ostensibly charged with keeping America safe, is telling enforcement officers to “run away”.

This isn't the first time DHS has issued boneheaded and downright dangerous policies. In fact, the night Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry was killed, his team of BORTAC agents was following DHS policy when they fired bean bag warning shots at AK-47 armed Mexican bandits. Not surprisingly, the bandits fired back with live ammunition and Agent Brian Terry was killed.
Right here, right now, we have armed Gangs, Drug runners, illegal Aliens and even Muslim terrorists coming across our borders. Apparently DHS would just as soon let the bad guys in than do anything to stop them.

This sort of insanity MUST STOP. Our borders need to be protected, running and hiding or throwing bean bags won’t cut it. We need an active, engaged policy to protect America and her people!
Defend America,
