Border Patrol Chief:”Border Patrol agents don’t have the responsibility of apprehending illegal immigrants.”

By: Pam On: Aug/20/07 -

Really?Bryan points out their Mission Statement, but it seems that Carlos X. Carrillo, chief patrol agent for the Laredo sector, has a different understanding.

Border Patrol agents dont have the responsibility of apprehending illegal immigrants, Carlos X. Carrillo, chief patrol agent for the Laredo sector, said at a town hall meeting Wednesday.”The Border Patrol is not equipped to stop illegal immigrants,” Carrillo said, noting that illegal narcotics are also not on the agents priority list.
“The Border Patrol mission is not to do any of those things,” he emphasized.
The Border Patrols mission is to keep the country safe from terrorist and terrorist weapons, he said. Carrillo added that when and if terrorists come into the country, the agents will be ready.

    Hmmm, incapable of dealing with a bunch of narcoterrorists or illegal aliens, but ready to deal with real terrorists? Those are two exclusionary positions. If you can’t handle the far less dangerous of the two, you sure as hell aren’t capable of handling the more dangerous of them.

    I guess this idiot is saying they’ll let the terrorists infiltrate first, THEN they’ll deal with them!

    What a babbling idiot! Why is this fool still employed?

    the problem with carrillo is that he is so intoxicated with his ego being a Chief he has lost sight of the true mission!

    Why are you wasting my tax dollars on an employee like Carillo? If he’s an example of the Border Patrol, they all need to be fired and hire some real American Citizens!
