A Border Patrol agent is dead and another has been wounded after gunfire erupted in Arizona, along a known drug corridor near the U.S.-Mexico border.
The officer who was injured has been airlifted to the hospital, and word is he has non-life threatening wounds. The circumstances surrounding the shooting, not clear yet, as the search for the gunman continues. A Border Patrol spokesperson tells FOX News Radio that it happened near Naco, Arizona.
The two agents were assigned to the Brian Terry Station that was just recently dedicated in honor of the Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, who was killed almost two years ago.

01/01/2009 – TARPI & TARPII already enacted, economy still in a downward slide. QEI, QEII, Operation TWIST and then QEIII in full swing to try and halt USA economic downward slide already well underway. 47% of Americans CAN’T pay taxes! 49 million Americans on welfare. Middle class disappears. Highest foreclosure rates in American history. Rampant prostitution and exploding drug use. Manufacturing decline of 13.5%. Factory closings at an all time high (since 2009).
What was the base cause of this economic/financial collapse? Subprime mortgages and fuzzy politics in culture of corruption in Washington DC, coupled with Greed and Power by We The Elite People. What one single person was perpetrator of Subprime Mortgages? Barack Obama in Chicago’s District 13 and his enabling cadre of “anti-redlining progressive activists.”
Of course, this is billed as conservative “bad mouthing!” So be it! Pray. God Bless America. Amen. Total collapse of America WILL occur during Obama’s second term…because his policies will continue and 3 more new Supreme Court Justices will be appointed by Obama’s administration. Wake-up!!!
I see that the FAA has imposed a set of “national security” Temporary Flight Restrictions over the site, and over nearby Fort Huachuca. This is highly unusual, and it suggests that military action may be imminent.
