An Arizona Border Patrol agent, facing criminal charges for hitting a migrant with a truck, sent text messages in which he referred to immigrants as “mindless, murdering savages.”
Border Patrol agents participate during a tour of U.S. Customs and Border Protection temporary holding facilities in El Paso, Texas on May 2, 2019.In one text to agent Lonnie Swartz, Bowen wrote, “mindless, murdering savages. PLEASE let us take the gloves off trump!”in the 2012 shooting death of Jose Antonio Rodríguez. Swartz has since returned to work for the agency, said Art Del Cueto, national vice president of the Border Patrol Council, the union that represents border agents.
In some texts, Bowen refers to immigrants, including the one he is accused of hitting, as a “tonk”.
“I did not mean to suggest it's common for Border Patrol to use racial slurs or insulting pejoratives,” Chapman said.
One more Trump guy showing the reason he has to go.
Ok. So? That hardly makes a case. The proof is how the accident happened and the details from that. The better odds are he was texting and driving but that doesn’t fit your narrative.
mafia2222001 Trump will pardon him if convicted!
Who gets to decide what our country is? The cartels?
He must have been describing his own patrol unit. Or all the deplorables.
President Trump laughed alone with a suggestion that asylum seekers should be shot. The President was agreeing with murder and that is what this man was carrying out. Stephen Miller the hard liner and evil architect behind these immigration policies is as responsible as Trump.
Who's the mindless, murdering, savage here? Hitting a asylum seeker with a car? This is a border patrol agent sworn to protect and keep the peace? Imagine armed vigilantes led by a convicted felon rounding up asylum seekers at the NM border. Trump and Miller are responsible.
Definitely not suited for the job
This the book at the Border Patrol Agent for hitting a Migrant with his truck.
Trump will pardon him.
OMFG 🤬🤬🤬🤬DID NO ONE IN THE USA LEARN A DAMN THING FROM 9/11? WHERE DID THE KINDNESS AND COMPASSION GO? HOW FREAKN QUICKLY THEY FORGET. Also remember. Maybe this is what other countries think about the USA “mindless, murdering savages.”
😳😳😳😳
Trump will pardon him
these guys are even more dangerous than I previously thought...how do these guys get hired? or do they just need 'thug credentials'?
how can you face charges for someone who isnt legally in the country?
