What The Hell?
Now, is this funny, or what?
Even though I must confess that I did kind of chuckle about it, when you stop to think about it, I’d have to say it’s a lot less funny than it is “what?”
I mean, how does it come to be that U.S. Border Patrol uniforms are hecho en Mexico? Is the contractor that supplies the uniforms an idjit?
The labels inside the U.S. Border Patrol uniforms have been making many federal agents feel uneasy. It’s not the fit or feel of the olive-green shirts and pants, but what their labels read: “Made in Mexico.”
“It’s embarrassing to be protecting the U.S.-Mexico border and be wearing a uniform made in Mexico,” says T.J. Bonner, president of the National Border Patrol Council, a 6,500-member union.
I’ll just bet it is, T.J., I’ll just bet it is…
