Judge restricts Border Patrol in California: ‘You just can’t walk up to people with brown skin’
The court also ordered the Border Patrol to document every stop and provide reports within 60 days. During oral arguments on Monday, the government attorney said doing so would be burdensome to Border Patrol agents. Judge Thurston rebuked the government, saying: “They have to make a report for every arrest, not sure what the burden is.”
According to sworn declarations filed in court by those detained, Border Patrol agents slashed tires, yanked people out of trucks, threw people to the ground, and called farmworkers “Mexican bitches.”
Let's repeat that for emphasis: "During oral arguments on Monday, the government attorney said doing so would be burdensome to Border Patrol agents."
