That's just not appropriate.

As for the killing of the boarder agent, anybody killing the a police officer(boarder agent) should be publicly hung.

I would like to see the National Guard stationed at our borders with a shoot on sight order. Enough is enough!

As for this crimin-alien, he deserves being shot in the head 4 times and 3 in the torso.
