A 27-year-old man was killed Monday after opening fire at a U.S. Border Patrol facility in McAllen, Texas, authorities said.
Federal agents returned fire at the man, who had an assault rifle and was carrying a utility vest, McAllen Police Chief Victor Rodriguez told reporters Monday morning.
Rodriguez identified the suspect as Ryan Louis Mosqueda.
Law enforcement said they found another rifle and more ammunition. Rodriguez said the man’s motive is currently unknown.
One officer was injured in the shooting. Rodriguez said it was unclear if the injury was from shrapnel or a bullet.
Basically every "group plot" I can think of in the last 20 years (regardless of ideology or motive) has been broken up by one or more undercovers or informants before they can do anything.
Maybe his methodology was dumb but reaching out to the ether for partners in crime is dumber.
Lone Wolf type attacks do have a much lower chance of being discovered, but that doesn't change that just running at a group of armed agents is dumb. Planting a bomb or sniping them at a distance seems like something with a higher chance of success. Or even a suicide vest, since surviving certainly wasn't a goal for the guy.
America makes suicide killers… did you think it was only going to happen in the other countries they fuck over? America basically used the same tactics that they use in other countries to throw this coup in America. They know what they are doing. The have experience with all this already.
crying out how bad it is accomplishes nothing… they already know… they don’t care… people saying how bad it is isn’t going to change anything. People need to understand war, crime, and heartlessness if they want to go against this. You’re not going to overcome them by being nice.
