A 27-year-old man was killed Monday after opening fire at a U.S. Border Patrol facility in McAllen, Texas, authorities said.

Federal agents returned fire at the man, who had an assault rifle and was carrying a utility vest, McAllen Police Chief Victor Rodriguez told reporters Monday morning.

Rodriguez identified the suspect as Ryan Louis Mosqueda.

Law enforcement said they found another rifle and more ammunition. Rodriguez said the man’s motive is currently unknown.

One officer was injured in the shooting. Rodriguez said it was unclear if the injury was from shrapnel or a bullet.

          Yeah. It really doesn’t have to be political brain rot anymore.

          Maybe it’s not in this case…we’ll see. But we’re going to have cases of complete normies going “nothing left to lose” after their loved ones or friends are taken/killed by ICE.

          Imagine finding out your partner/kids were taken from their job/school. You can’t. I can’t. There is no law or order that matters to people when the “law and order” are the ones doing it.

          And at some point, hopefully, we all realize that those people are the sane ones. The people standing by and watching it happen well…

          It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.
