Border agents ordered to not wear swine flu masks

Border agents are upset at the absurd decision from the DHS to not allow them to wear masks as protection against swine flu. Political correctness and appearances have been put above their personal safety. The time has come for Janet Napolitano to resign or be fired.

Border Patrol agents ordered NOT to wear protective masks against Mexican swine flu!

Janet Napolitano strikes again! Time to call for her resignation. Our Border patrol agents are NOT permitted to protect their health because DHS doesn't like how it looks to the public and does not want commerce to be effected at the risk of American lives.

"We are now calling for Janet Napolitano's immediate resignation!" William Gheen, President of ALIPAC

Agents want to wear the N-95 respirator masks.

Come on. Be real. The administration walks hand-in-hand with the same PC crowd such as Mr/Ms Hilton who reviled Ms California- and note that the Hollywood Liberal bunch backed Hilton up in the general denouncement of Ms Cali for 'not being PC'. The administration again, is part of the same ideological group .. how can you expect anything but putting PC above the safety of people.

Ridiculous. If I were them I'd wear it anyway. Make them explain to the people why they fired an employee for taking health precautions.

If one of these employees does end up getting sick, everyone crossing the border and ending up sick would have a case for reckless endangerment.

In the border guards position, wearing a mask seems like a reasonable thing. I would let my employees do that is they wanted to.

Funny .. you don't see the ACLU supporting the rights of the border guards.

Oh what am I thinking. They are not Taliban, drug addicts, NAZIs, pedophiles or any of the other people that are represented by ACLU lawyers. What .. was i thinking? :/
