Its hyperbolic to say the least.

Go to the bottom of page 2. Seems pretty common sense to me. You don't shoot people unless confronted with the threat of death or serious bodily injury, you don't step in front of cars to try and get them to stop, and you don't shoot at cars JUST because they are fleeing.

That pretty well mimics TN vs Garner and all current doctrine on use of lethal force for police forces.

While I don't think people should be throwing rocks I don't think shooting is an appropriate measured response.

Here's another "rock thrower." The boy was found riddled with 8 bullet holes in the back. The killer CBP agent was never named and remains free.

Don't miss the independent study that revealed a pattern of border patrol agents manufacturing a pretext to open fire on civilians.

So if someone is throwing rocks at me that may seriously injure me or kill I should only run away? What if I have a broken leg and cannot run, can I not stand my ground and defend myself?

I think we should arm the border patrol with slingshots. If the illegals start chucking rocks, fire some back at them. Problem solved.

If idiots weren't throwing rocks they wouldn't get shot. Wierd I know, but that's like taking a rock to a gun fight. Not too smart, you get what you ask for.

Of course not. Just hobble off best you can.

Go back up, look at the link I posted, and read the bottom of the 2nd page. Its a PDF that has cut and paste disabled, but if their is a threat of serious injury or death they can still shoot.

The illegals are down to throwing rocks at border patrol????

eric holder is sure shirking his responsibilities to get guns into the hands of the illegals.

is there a limit as to how many people can throw rocks at you before you change your mind?

You can't overcome forces of nature. May as well try to reverse gravity.

We have jobs for unskilled labor and give away free ****. It's going to attract people with no skills who want free **** from now until doomsday. Trying to hold back that tide is just going to cost a lot of dollars and lives.

I would say that it depends on the rock. The video i have seen features rocks bigger than bricks.
