pepper gas and tear gas they used this time, they did not aim it at the women and children at the border. they simply aimed it at the people who were throwing the rocks. now, here s a good argument for the president and his wall. that particular stretch of the wall, apparently, is part of the old wall, and apparently a number of the people were trying to burrow under it because it is it doesn t go down it s apparently on the surface, 25 were arrested ultimately and most of them were trying to burrow under. that s when the melee happened. there was one person at border patrol who said that the migrants appeared to be trying to stage a photo op. in front of what they refer to as conveniently invited news media. brian: here is how the news media covered it one way against us as usual. u.s.a. today u.s. border agents shoot tear gas at migrants. u.s.a. today most likely got free and stayed in hotel last night. border patrol agents fired tear gas into mexico as migrants attempt to cros
when we see those images that the media showed us of what happened on sunday, tell me what the public didn t see that you as agents did. a couple of those photos are the equivalent of looking through a straw out into space. so you might see one little thing. but you are missing the entire situation. my agents responded directly to a physical assault against them. they were being rocked. and then they used the pepper gas. we stopped that and actually regained order. i m going to have my agents do their job. control the borders and keep americans safe. steve: that s the fox nation you have got you have got the migrant standoff taking place a few miles south of where you are sitting right now. i had the opportunity to spend some time with our border agents last week in san diego. i saw the area where the migrant caravan really rushed the border and attacked our agents. i saw the rocks on the ground that were thereon at our border patrol agents and
for quite a while. so we had a lot of our riot control equipment out on the field and specially trained agents on the field. sure enough as soon as those aliens got close to the border, they immediately engage the agents by throwing rocks, taunting them at the border and our agents defended themselves and those around them by deploying the safest tool we had at that time, which is pepper gas, basically a pepper based gas, it is an irritant, there is no long-term effects. i inhaled quite a bit of it myself out there on sunday as well. but we did that to protect the crowds, it is very unfortunate that some people brought children into that type of an environment and subjected them to it, but by dispersing that crowd, i believe in the long run we actually protected those women and children as well. martha: in terms of what you are seeing and what your expectations are down the road, you say that there was so much discussion before the election that this was all hype, people
our agent dechingsded themselves and those around them by deploying the safest tool we have is pepper gas if you will. pepper-based gas. it s an irritant. there is no long-term effects. i inhaled quite a bit of it myself. i was out there on sunday as well. we did that to protect the crowds. we took this caravan very serious from day one. it s like no caravan we have ever seen before. you ve heard reports that caravans happen all the time, that s true but not caravans that have a propensity for this type of violence and not these massive numbers of people. steve: and the president yesterday, as he was leaving the white house. he said very clearly nobody is going to get in this country illegally. jedediah: these border patrol agents cannot be vilified for doing their job. what are they supposed to do. if you have people throwing rocks at you. steve: and hitting you. jedediah: and hitting you. that is an attack. you have to do something to protect. your job is to secure and protected that
