Border residents defend Border Patrol

 Fox News:

Locals in Del Rio, Texas, who spoke with Fox News overwhelmingly supported Border Patrol, despite recent viral images from their community that sparked criticism and an internal investigation.

"It brought me to tears," one longtime resident said. "These men are giving their lives, leaving their families, to come here and to secure us. I'm personally very thankful."

The resident's wife added: "We've been here for 54 years … I've watched when there was a multitude of people coming, their kindness to them."

"They're not bad people," she told Fox News. "They're wonderful people."

Images of Border Patrol agents on horseback catching Haitian migrants in Del Rio recently went viral. The agents were falsely accused of whipping the migrants.

"We back them completely," the woman said. "We say don't lie about them. Please don't lie about them."

Diane, who lives right on the border, told Fox News: "Border Patrol are phenomenal."

In response to the photos, President Biden said it was "horrible," "outrageous" and that these people "would pay." Horse patrols were temporarily suspended while the Department of Homeland Security investigates the incident.

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was asked Monday whether new information released contrasting the narrative that migrants were whipped changed anything.

Psaki replied: "I don't think anyone could look at those photos and think that was an appropriate action."

But many in Del Rio who spoke with Fox News felt the Border Patrol agents were doing their job and that the pictures portrayed a different story.

I think Biden and his administration owe the people an apology for their reaction to the photos.  I also think that Biden's open borders policies are the reason for the influx, to begin with.  Biden is in dereliction of his duty to faithfully execute the laws of the US including the immigration laws.

Didn't anyone see the 14,000 Haitians?

...

 So how did 14,000 black Haitians walk through Mexico?  They don't speak Spanish, and they sure look different.  There aren't a lot of black Mexicans.

Who helped them?

Well, someone did, and my friends in Mexico fear that criminal elements are behind it all.  They charge to move people and probably pay off a few authorities on the walk north.
