Federal agents returned fire at the man, who had an assault rifle
No he didn't. Unless he robbed an army base, he probably had a regular old AR15
Hopefully his shots caught some nazi skulls and nothing else.
opening fire at a U.S. Border Patrol facility ... motive is currently unknown.
Man shoots nazis, motive unknown 🤔
If you're last name is "Rodriguez" and you are still working for Border Patrol, you're a traitor.
If you’re ~~last name is “Rodriguez” and you are~~ still working for Border Patrol, you’re a traitor.
Oh man, you'd be surprised how many Latino white supremacists Nazis there are out there.
No I really wouldn't be. But it's still disheartening.
I'm Mexican. I shit you not, I've seen a very brown Nazi sporting a bright red t-shirt with a black swaztika and a shit-eating grin while strutting downtown in Guadalajara. I've never wanted to kick someone in the teeth so bad in my life.
There are a few random internet people who just live in my head for no reason. Back in like 2016 there was a guy on reddit who would sign all his posts with: Latinos for Trump. I was like: all right, this is the most blatant russian AstroTurf i have ever seen. And i did for the first time ever look through his comment history. Mainly to feel smart, there was nothing I could do with that information. I went back so far, and it was apparently just an average, seemingly nice latino dude who was super into trump. And i never really figured it out why.
Was he in the "I will vote for Donald Trump" music video?
We will need a variant of the Darwin Awards for that sort of person. Minorities collaborating with Nazis is a truly special kind of stupid.
If you're ~~last name is "Rodriguez" and you are still~~ working for Border Patrol, you're a traitor.
Where's all the people complaining about the lack of people trying to start stuff with feds?
Almost like fighting the way they want to be fought doesn't accomplish Jack and shit.
Solo running a facility as if life is an FPS game where you can just super soldier and out aim everything wasn't the best of ideas.
This tracks exactly with what I say; one person alone can’t do shit.
I bet the story would’ve been quite different had there been 10-20 heroes instead of one.
Hopefully one day we can build a statue of him.
I can't wait for the movie adaptation
