Have been reading that Texas agents stopped Border Patrol from helping the mother and 2 children who were drowning. Disgraceful inhuman etc But, now DOJ report says these 3 people were already dead an hour before Texas agents stopped Customs Inaccurate news blaming Texas agents who ‘stood by watching’ while the mother and 2 children drowned and wouldn’t let BP help the struggling family. But guess this wrong info gets hyped because it plays into the Texas v. Biden government image br] www.nationalreview.com/news/doj-filing-shows-texas-did-not-stop-border-patrol-from-saving-drowning-migrants/amp/I'm glad the DOJ set the record straight. Of course any loss of life is tragic. Sadly this incident reminds me of 30ys ago a family friend died rock climbing. No ropes. Fell 150ft to his death. He knew the risks but did it anyway. Personal responsibility.
So nobody who calls 911 should expect help? Or only people who are doing “approved” activities get help? How do we decide who deserves to get help? Or should nobody expect help when they call 911? How about someone who has an accident while under the influence? They know the risk, so there is no obligation to try to save them? Someone who overdosed? Someone who lives in a flood zone deserve help? They know the risk of living there? Who decides? BTW, the CNN version of the article on the same day has different facts. But I bet you prefer the National Review version |

it doesn't make sense that the Texas Authorities stopped US Border Patrol, then.
the facts are conflicting.
if they were DEAD, why did Texas authorities stop US Border Patrol?
that issue still remains open.

So you are blaming the children too. Got it. I trust nothing coming out of abbott's mouth nor the texas national guard. They were blocking the U.S. Border patrol from entering areas which the national guard illegally controlled. |
