AGENTS IN WRONG JOB

I'm angered and outraged that Ashley Villarreal was killed by DEA agents. I 
have a daughter who is 14. My heart goes out to her family. How can these 
agents possibly feel threatened by a 14-year-old? Are they blind?

It seems to me these agents lacked common sense, made a poor judgment and 
ignored the safety of all concerned. But what they lack most of all is 
professionalism. The agents who killed this young girl do not belong in 
this line of work.
