The wages of amnesty:
The FBI confirms it is investigating a claim made in a call to a police department in a Texas border town that a Mexican cartel has kidnapped a U.S. Border Patrol agent…
“We are aware and continue to work with U.S. Customs and Border Protection to determine whether there is any validity to this threat,” FBI Special Agent Michelle Lee told News Radio 1200 WOAI. “Until we rule it out, we treat it as a true kidnapping.”
“Someone called in and started out reporting some sort of activity, and the call then turned into threats against law enforcement, threats against the dispatcher, and ultimately threats against law enforcement in general,”
Chris Cabrera, a representative with the National Border Patrol Council, the organization that represents Border Patrol agents, told Reuters that the drama began with a phone call to police in La Joya, a small town on the Rio Grande in extreme south Texas.
“It is a concern,” he said. “Hopefully it is just a hoax, but at this time we are not going to write off any threats to our agents.”
“This would be a nightmare situation,” he said.
Not for Barack Obama, though, evidently, since he's done everything in his demidivine power to neuter law enforcement of all kinds, at every level, for the past six years, and with increasing intensity and focus over the past year. Respect for the rule of law has never been lower, contempt for the law has never been greater among those who are supposed to be deterred by it, and never have the enemies of the law - and of America - been more emboldened to undertake provocations they never would have even dared contemplate before his infernal majesty came along.
As Mr. Cabrera said, hopefully and prayerfully this is just a hoax, and no kidnapping has taken place. But if you were placing bets on this, where would you put your money? On this just being a loud prank, or on this abduction being "real as roast beef"?
As I always say, life is about incentives. If you give the bad guys endless encouragement that they can succeed by doing all the evil and unlawful things they're not supposed to do, can we really be surprised when nobody is safe anywhere any longer, including and especially border patrol agents on the erased border, or two NYPD cops in their squad car? Seems a no-brainer case of "cause and effect," if you ask me.
The Merovingian would have been so proud.
