Bonner, president of the National Border Patrol Council.<br /><br />"It just doesn't make any sense to me or Border Patrol agents that I've talked to," Bonner said. Drug cartels "may have gotten weapons elsewhere, but why make it easy for them?"<br /><br />"There should be a full investigation into the whole Project Gunrunner. From all appearances, that program was out of control," he said.<br /><br />Bonner said it is routine for law enforcement agencies to conduct controlled sales and purchases of contraband, but not to let guns go across the border, where they predictably could be used in crimes.<br /><br />"What is the end game here? It's not clear in my mind," he said.</i>Kurt '45superman' Hofmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14091930034162667742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-83257101708846148202011-02-14T06:32:09.216-06:002011-02-14T06:32:09.216-06:00He doesn't want to upset his "friends.&qu...He doesn't want to upset his "friends."<br /><br />If this is the type of representation these people have then they need to decertify and get new reps.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-22259251596529848542011-02-13T23:22:59.104-06:002011-02-13T23:22:59.104-06:00Sent this to Bonner:

I guess you call them Patrol Agents now.<br /><br />When are you going to add your voice to those asking why Brian Terry died at the end of a rifle that BATFE allowed to get into the wrong hands? Do you support your agents, or don't you? Your silence so far is demeaning. I'm sure your union members think so, too.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Reg Thibodeau<br />former SDPD<br /><br />When I worked at the VA, most of our union stewards and admin were blowhards, too. Fortunately, we weren't forced to join. AFGE sucks, but it is a union, so forgive me for being redundant.Reg Tnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-25171845545768662142011-02-13T15:06:24.656-06:002011-02-13T15:06:24.656-06:00I'll ask a couple of CBP Agents have run acros...I'll ask a couple of CBP Agents have run across here on the border,if enough of the Field Agents put up a stink maybe Bonner will get off his ass, doubtful as CBP Field Personel gave a vote of "No Confidence" to their Upper Echelon just like the "good guys"???? at ATF.<br /><br /> Dennis<br /> III<br /> TexasDennis308https://www.blogger.com/profile/07890267243094484300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-15299408770143969302011-02-13T10:20:21.918-06:002011-02-13T10:20:21.918-06:00Nothing "curious" about the silence from...Nothing "curious" about the silence from NBPC and Bonner. When I first saw his picture - BEFORE I even knew he was the head of NBPC - I immediately stamped "politician" across his mug shot. OF COURSE he isn't saying anything. That might cost him prestige points with DHS. Might get him bounced from the guest list for VIP gatherings. He might never get to wear his tux again.<br /><br />Sorry, Dutchman, no surprises here. Sad to say. No surprises here.<br /><br />Bad Cyborg XBad Cyborgnoreply@blogger.com
