Yea, I did my interview with 3 CBP agents at Harrisburg international airport in PA. Old salty dudes.
The northern boarder is a joke. Its easier to get into Canada than it is visa versa.
They also setup checkpoints many miles from the boarder, violating the civil rights of American Citizens who have the audacity to travel within 150 miles of the border.
They refuse to do the job they were sworn to, Refuse to uphold US law and the constitution and allow this country to be invaded by terrorists, illegals and drugs that are killing our citizens and destroying our quality of life.
Customs is not Border Patrol. Got a buddy who is a customs agent in Baltimore. Was the biggest Pothead in college, but that's a different story. Their mission is clear and separate from Border Patrol.
Border Patrol has one job. Administer the boarder. They get involved in shit they have no business being apart of when you have other agencies who cover that domain, be in DEA, FBI, DOI, USMS, Customs ,ect ect.
I don't know if I would use Uvalde as an example for success in any aspect, unless you are a mass murderer. Any one of the LE with a set of balls could have ended before a guy from over an hour away got there.
There were BORTAC guys in afg and iraq. Amazing they had the time to come to a combat zone and try to stop drug smuggling in foreign nation, but cant be bothered to do it here.
