In effect by calling them “Domestic Terrorists” you enable all the provisions of the Patriot Act. They perpetually carry that label, that the government can pull out whenever they wish, like a No Fly List, Bank Accounts, Job Applications, Passport Applications, Detention Centers, Voter Registration, to name a few. Peacefully protesting exercising your 4th Amendment rights, now becomes a Domestic Terrorism label that you’re forced to fight in Court like Asset Forfeiture where you’re guilty until you prove your innocence.
It’s very disturbing how close this and other situations could have turned into the Good and Pretti tragedies. When law enforcement is engaged in lawlessness, how is anyone supposed to feel safe?
Is this the woman they intentionally ran off the road and shot, then claimed she tried ramming them?

Sorry for the delay. They had to have time to edit the texts…
These agents are not the best of Us. In total, according to CBP’s own discipline reports, over the 20 years from 2005 to 2024 — the last year numbers are available — **at least 4,913 CBP officers** and Border Patrol agents have been arrested themselves, some multiple times. (In 2018 alone, a single CBP employee was arrested five times.) To put that number in perspective:
The population of CBP agents and officers who have been arrested would make it roughly the nation’s fourth largest police department — equal to the size of the entire Philadelphia police.
According to investigative work by Garrett Graff, criminality is so rampant inside CBP that it has seen one of its own agents or officers **arrested every 24 to 36 hours** since 2005. CBP’s misconduct scandal is so long-running that today it would be old enough to drink.
