While they provide aid and comfort to those entering illegally through our southern border, they're threatening jail and death to US citizens re-entering the country legally. Take those agents and ship them off to northern Iraq!
I think pointing a gun at a kids head for no reason is never warranted, don't you? Regardless if it's a boy scout or not.
Since when do cops of any kind point a gun at someone's head, anyway? They are all trained to take body shots. Talk about a loose cannon. They need to fire that hot-headed border agent immediately.
When I was in Alaska, we ventured into Canada and back. We were warned by the tour bus operator that even back-talking one of the agents should they decide to board our bus was a bad idea. I think the word sh*t-heads was used.
I saw other articles about this. The video does not show a weapon being pointed or out of its holster. I will wait for more evidence not just what one side says.

OK, care to post a link to those articles that include a video that other sources can't seem to get from the US government?
US Border Guards at points of entry have a reputation around the world as being pretty much the most awful human beings on the entire planet. Human garbage.
If there is one department that is in sore need of radical cultural overhaul, it's Customs and Border Protection charged with handling people entering the United States. The absolute lack of basic respect and civility shown to US and World citizens alike is pretty damn shocking. If you haven't experienced it first hand, then you probably don't own a passport.
The IRS suffered from similar abuse-culture problems that got partially remedied in the 1990's.
CBP needs to really get rid of the sociopaths.

Agree 100%.
Those agents are poorly trained and many are young, cocky, and very unprofessional.
There is ALOT of unreported abuse that goes on- I have seen it and experienced it first hand crossing the border for many years.
Supposedly they were working on these issues a few years ago.
What a tough guy. I'm surprised he didn't pistol whip the boy scout for good measure. I'm waiting for the usual boot lickers to arrive in this thread and defend the CBP POS.
