Bcoming a nation of cowards

Just read a "news" item regarding the Border Patrol and found it both interesting and indicative of what our nation has evolved into over the past, oh say twenty years. Are you ready for this? Okay. The Department of Homeland Security, you remember them? They're the ones "charged" with "Protecting" the nation and the citizens (so long as those citizens continue to vote for the Messiah of course). Well, the DHS developed and issued  demands of compliance from all its employees with their idea of how to respond to any armed confrontation. You understand what I'm talking about here? Any gunman, anywhere. Employees, and this is directed toward Border Patrol agents, those armed, sworn law enforcement officers sworn to protect us from the invasion across the border, are now trained in their new program to "run away and hide" and "throw things". All this from the squirrel heading that pseudo-agency, you know, the deer in the headlights lady who is today's champion of the "Peter Principle".  So, those agents/officers we place so much faith in to patrol the borders to act like they are enforcing the nation's immigration laws are now suppose to run away and hide or throw things at the thugs and outlaws who freely walk or drive across the border, guns ablazin' whilst we are allowed to do nothing, courtesy of, thats right, you guessed it, YOUR President and his henchmen in the Justice Dept and Dept of "Homeland Security".  How's that "Hope and Change" thing working out for you?
