Wow! Homeland Security instructs border patrol agents to ‘run away and hide’ from an ‘active shooter’

janet-napolitano_0*Facepalm* Now the Obama Department of Homeland Security is instructing border patrol agents in Arizona to ‘run away and hide’ from an ‘active shooter.’ You couldn’t make this stuff up if you tried. The border patrol union is getting so fed up with the Obama regime and Janet Napolitano that they are blasting their bosses for telling them to do this. This is really a great way to defend this country isn’t it? Run away and hide? Since when did we become France?

It’s one thing to tell civilian employees to cower under a desk if a gunman starts spraying fire in a confined area, say members of Tucson Local 2544/National Border Patrol Council, but to give armed law enforcement professionals the same advice is downright insulting. The instructions from DHS come in the form of pamphlets and a mandatory computer tutorial.

“We are now taught in an ‘Active Shooter’ course that if we encounter a shooter in a public place we are to ‘run away’ and ‘hide’” union leader Brandon Judd wrote on the website of 3,300-member union local. “If we are cornered by such a shooter we are to (only as a last resort) become ‘aggressive’ and ‘throw things’ at him or her.

    Janet should step down or be recalled, impeached, or just arrested for this ridiculous order to Federal border agents.  What is she thinking?  The border guards will continue to protect themselves with their weapons.
