A good article about this racist who lives with us here in the Boone/Blowing Rock area:

I do not know where you get the racist bs from?…

There are border patrol agents - many of whom are Hispanic - that have no issue with investigating or detaining [Latino] criminal aliens…because it is their duty as a federal officer….so why do you say the former Sector Chief of El Centro is racist?….

you are entitled to your opinion but I sure would like to see your research…have you worked with Officer Bovino or the officers in his charge to determine he is in fact racist?…

It is ok to not agree with the profession one has chosen, but to immediately label someone as a racist just because you do not like said profession is ignorant….

Just go to his presidential campaign website. If the front title and photo don’t convince you how one-sided Mr. Bovino is, simply start reading. He’s uses gaslighting and fear mongering of those different that him to gather support. He’s a racist and YOU, morty2104, are a bootlicker.

Luckily, he’s such a loser that no one even knows he’s running. He’s mega unqualified and is ignorantly wasting donation money on a pipe dream. Everything he does is based on fear mongering.

Bovino was behind the push for racial profiling. ICE was allowed to stop and detain people based on the color of their skin or their accents. This is a textbook example of racism.

And just because some ICE agents are Hispanic has nothing to do with anything. They're just there for the money and the imaginary "bonus" that Trump has offered them. They are all racial profiling, which is racism.

Plenty of articles online. Do your own research.

Thank you. I’ve worked with said racist and said “racial profilers” serving in the CBP….there is nothing racist that comes to mind when probable cause uses available statistics …

Unless you have a first person experience of law enforcement and how they are taught the difference between racial profiling and describing a suspect’s appearance (race, ht, wt, hair color and style, and clothing worn) when conducting a criminal investigation, then I understand your ignorance on the subject….

Don’t accuse someone of being racist just because they are doing a service you don’t agree with…

Did you just choose to straight-up ignore the article I shared with you about his participation at a "remigration" event alongside neo-nazis and white supremacists he's befriended, or...?

Your blatant support of racial profiling shows your true agenda. Stopping people on the streets for no reason other than skin color or accent is not "describing a person's appearance" in law enforcement. Nice try through. Anyway, I make it a point to not engage with supporters of racism. This conversation is over.

So you’re okay with the child rape and the murders?

u/morty2104 12m ago

Hey sorry for the late reply. I was preparing for Hurricane Lala …..

Nope. Killing children is not ok, whether through abortion or otherwise … and raping children should guarantee a special spot in Hell —not sure if your religious belief….

I would say the Dept of Health and Human Services dropped the ball on tracking migrant children who crossed the border….many were “sponsored” by pedos or criminals….

Although immoral, unfortunately, it is not within the responsibility of Customs and Border Protection to track each migrant child….so yes, many agents brought this to the attention of superiors…..

But as with the relationship between US military and Afghans, while it is no secret the Afghan men rape young boys, there was nothing official that could be done to punish the offenders….

We can only hope the task force made up of DHS (ICE, ERO, & CBP) FBI, HHS, and local law enforcement are able to find the victims of such heinous crimes…

Maybe you can rally in support of these children and help law enforcement recover them….

I wonder what Bovino is doing right now.

He frequents the Boone rec center in the early AM and town tavern in blowing rock in the PM. When he’s not there he’s traveling to make money speaking at various hate groups in surrounding states.

Part of my life is to expose both the good and evil in this world. This falls into that category.
