But let me tell the Members what they also said. I would like everyone to listen to it. They did not want any Border Patrol. either. They support open borders. no checkpoints. Let people come and go freely. Let me tell the Members what they also said. without mentioning the name of a priest who helped to carry much of the conversation. He said the local Border Patrol spends more than 4 to 5 hours a day in coffee shops. doing nothing. and occasionally beating up. quote unquote. beating up on some poor illegal immigrant that they might catch. Mr. Speaker. in a San Diego article June 1997. I will just read the first paragraph: "Bullets again were fired from Mexico at 2 U.S. Border Patrol agents in separate incidents. bringing the number of shootings at agents in the past month to five." In the last 120 days. nine Border Patrol agents were shot and injured. They have not been killed. They have families.
