"Friendly Fire" killed the border agent


FOX is reporting right now that the two agents involved were firing in each other's direction with the bad guys in the middle.

Gives rise to deep concerns over this so-called "friendly fire" crap.

Also, makes one wonder and remember the old (not so funny) Far Side cartoon with the execution firing squad forming a circle around the condemned...

I dunno, Dennis, strange world indeed,
If someone were shooting at me I would have a hard time calling it "friendly fire"

You have three scared officers at 2 in the morning in rocky and unfamiliar terrain--the amazing part is that they hit each other. That is, unless the woman shot them both.

A tragic end to a night shift, in any case.
