Freedom Outpost
According to Article 1, Section 8 of the US Constitution, “The Congress shall have Power to provide for calling for the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions.”
The 1828 Noah Webster Dictionary defines “invasion” as: 1) a hostile entrance into the possessions of another, particularly, the entrance of a hostile army into a country for the purpose of conquest or plunder, or the attack of military force…; 2) an attack on the rights of another, infringement or violation; 3) attack of a disease, as the invasion of a plague, in Egypt.
Since it is the responsibility of the federal government to protect the United States from “invasion,” why is it that “top administration officials have directed 21,000 border patrol officers to retreat whenever illegal immigrants throw rocks at them, and to avoid getting in front of foreign drug smugglers’ vehicles as they head north with their drug shipments?”
According to a report in the Daily Caller:
“Agents shall not discharge firearms in response to thrown or hurled projectiles… agents should obtain a tactical advantage in these situations, such as seeking cover or distancing themselves,” said the instructions, issued March 7, under the signature of Michael Fisher, chief of US Border Patrol.
Agents were also directed to keep their weapons holstered when drug smugglers drive by.
