My BF is an agent. Is is about the same as the dangers that you would encounter with any other civil service position. Violence occurs less than you think. The biggest problem on the border is drug smuggling. While that may be the case in previous years that could easily be about to change as the chance of Immigration laws being tightened. The Border Patrol and DEA is increasingly becoming reliant on the technology and equipment of the military and the "War on Drugs" (declared by Reagon) is secretly becoming a war on terrorism if the Bush Administration has it their way and clearly does as they refuse to periodically consult with Congress and answer to anyone. Right now as we speak, people looking to pass the Border have stepped up tactics by installing wires from one side to the other that are invisible to Border Patrol agents in the dark and could easily incapitate them. Now "War wagons" have been introduced and BP has contracts with government to purchase new hummers.
