Seems the Border Patrol needs some instruction and I think DeTrevni and Gatyr should jaunt on down to teach them how to use their brand new shiny Model-98s

If i was part of border patrol, I would invest in a high-end marker to teach them who they are messing with. It would be good target practice for tourney play.

I hope that they know that Pepper Spray is ineffective to people who are used to eating really hot spicy food. We had this kid at work that eats jalapeņos for snacks and has never been taken down with pepper spray even has taken a few blast of OC Pepper Spray.

My roommate has been hired as a police officer and I would love to show him this video before he gets a dose.

LOL.
Makes me want to work for the boarder patrol. Not for the sake of shooting illegals, just for the hell of it.

I can vouch for that being true.
All the Mexicans at Basic took the gas chamber very well, some were completly uneffected.

i'm not going to start an immigration debate, but i think the paintball markers are a better choice than using live ammunition. I think they should use reballs to reduce the risk of the shell coming in contact with the eye and doing damage.
This is the first time i've ever seen the news do a story about something paintball related and admit it's non-lethal, safe, and harmless.

Ya the only thing i was thinking about is that how much your told you need a mask on a field, but they are gonna shoot at people without masks.It says in the manual not to use without proper eye protection so how can they use them on people without getting into some sort of trouble? Also ya this is the only news story I'v seen where paintball wasn't negative.

I dunno... Look at the funny clothes, the little rowboat full of far too many people - I think they're Cubans.
