“We want to make sure they follow the rules. A Scout is a good citizen. It would be a great lesson in civics for that young man and that troop,” he said.
A good lesson indeed. When the Storm Troopers point a gun at your head...
You vill obey.
If that boy were a Hispanic teen with a visible #13 tattoo I’m sure that BP agent would have acted in the same way. From behind an MRAP. With a SWAT team.
Douche. Coward. Fraud.
But the scum leaks constantly across our southern border. So if these scouts were LaRaza they would have been alpologized to and given a new gun fast (and furiously)
Yes, next time just sneak across the border.
If caught you will be given a free ride to wherever your going and cash to buy new clothes.
Probably the most outrageous thing about this kind of behavior by BP is the fact that they are always “no tolerance tough” on obviously innocent (babies,grandmothers, boy scouts) American citizens than they are on our enemies (Muslims, illegals, terrorists).
This story almost makes me wonder if this really was a border patrol official and not some drug dealer dressed up as one. Otherwise, there was no reason for the agent to act the way he did. If this really was an agent, he needs to be fired and brought up on charges.
I am dumfounded that this happened and no one is going to do or say anything about it.
Also, “Fox said he was told it is a federal offense to take a picture of a federal agent”; what law is that?
The BP agent involved should be fired immediately. Possible charges to follow.

Well, obviously the scout was a White non-hispanic. If he had been dark-skinned and trying to sneak in the country, he would have been welcomed.
Welcome to the fascist USA.
Of course, one supposes that it is possible that the Iowa Boy Scouts (probably potential white men) were infected with some plague or other that had pandemic potential, endangering women, children, and members of minority groups.
I predict that no "Republican," whatever TF that means, will say a word.

Idiot and idiots.
Time to end this mess.
So it was a US border guard, as it was from Canada into US. When I’ve gone back and forth from the US to Canada, it had always been the US who questioned me most. And that was years ago.
>> Fox said he was told it is a federal offense to take a picture of a federal agent
Really?
As of now KCCI has not been able to make contact with any of the Scouts.
Obviously this wasn’t just your average “boy scout” troop but a highly trained Canadian military unit in disguise as boy scouts hell bent on invading Alaska.
This border agent has just saved the US from invasion by an extremely hostel and dangerous military force.
It’s time to nuke Canada just to play it safe.
“Ultimately no one was hurt or arrested...”
That idiot BP agent needs to be arrested, at least fired. ASAP. I know, he’ll get a medal.
Just another peek at your new brand of “public servants.”
effin a holes
These people have jobs and no gibsmedat mentally. We don’t need those kind of people in America!
