His response was "why does it matter". It matter's b/c he was asked. If you don't like the hassle, feel free to stay and shop in Canada.Mulva;1168690 wrote:That's a retarded thing to say, because he did answer the question. His response was "I don't know". Believe it or not, malls have dozens of stores.
Knowing what store you'll visit in a mall is completely irrelevant to border crossing. It only ended up mattering because the border guard decided to be a dick and make it matter instead of just using common sense. -

now that were over acting pompous, the border patrol is pretty useless. this is evidence the agent realizes his job is pointless.

I don't think terrorists are going to be smart asses to border patrol, so they should know it's just some smart ass people being dicks. No reason to be all macho man superior alpha male on them. -

You're missing the point.. he got dentained b/c he was a prick. If he's not a fuckhead he goes through. You know what you're getting into so if you want to be an idiot and get detained, I don't feel bad for you,tcarrier32;1168941 wrote:YEAH CUZ IF YOU DONT LIKE IT YOU CAN GET THE HELL OUT.

Really though, how pathetic do you have to be to accept a job as a Canadian border patrol officer? How does one find themselves at that point in their life? How small does one's penis have to be to get off on that amount of authority?
This is unfortunately, exactly the sort of behavior I'd expect from someone willing to have their life's work be "Canadian Border Patrol Officer." -

This is true. But he was a prick because the officer was a prick. -

I believe those are the ones that couldn't make it as a Security Guard.

I'll agree he was too, but you know if you are a prick back to authorities, it's not going to end well. Just suck it up and move on.pnhasbeen;1169267 wrote:This is true. But he was a prick because the officer was a prick. -

This is why I posted this. I am always really polite with authorities and such. But that does not mean that people should be detained/charged/beaten/etc because they aren't polite to them. They are not gods. The dude thinking that "which stores" was a hilariously stupid question (and it was) doesn't mean he needs to get bullied and detained. Would I have made a comment? Probably not or at least not the way he did. But this sort of thing shouldn't have happened either way and I'm sure it happens a ton and I'm tired of paying for people to be in jail for stupid little shit like this. Our safety, our economy, nor anything benefits from that sort of thing.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1169444 wrote:I'll agree he was too, but you know if you are a prick back to authorities, it's not going to end well.

my point being the border patrol agent is supposed to be protecting freedom, god, and 'merica. the canadian was sarcastic? oh well, color me stupid for thinking the agent should be able to keep a cool head longer than the civilian. or that the man with the power should be held to a higher standard than the man just traveling. -

Sorry to burst your bubble that we dont live in fantasy land. Fortunately most people are smart enough to know how to avoid trouble. Unfortunately for this Canadian, hes probably going to live a rough life. Life's hard enough when you're not stupid.

I agree with you on everything up until you seem to not hold the patrol accountable at all. We don't live in a fantasy land, but do we allow people to abuse their power based on non threatening sarcastic statements? I don't think that is right. -

I vaguely recall you telling a story about mouthing off to a cop because he told you to put license plates or something on your shitty car. Details may be wrong, but it was from the old site when you were still dedicated to your gimmick.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1169444 wrote:I'll agree he was too, but you know if you are a prick back to authorities, it's not going to end well.

Until it's illegal to be sarcastic or make non-threatening smart ass remarks the border patrol guy was the only one in the wrong. Canadien wasn't smart but that's not illegal. Until that is the border patrol guy can stop being a douche who gets his panties bunched up when someone questions his authority/ego.ZWICK 4 PREZ;1169670 wrote:Sorry to burst your bubble that we dont live in fantasy land.

Authority figures deserve no more respect than anyone else walking around unless they are somehow better than everyone else which from our experiences is simply not true. -

I was also a dumbass when I was 21 and in college/just graduated. You know.. when you thought you knew everything. This guys older and married and is responsible for more than himself and it's time to grow up.

I thought I always came to the defense of cops according to you earlier in this thread? So what is it? I don't care for a majority of cops more than the next guy, but what is this guy.. 28-35, marrried... it's time to quit being cool and worry about others in your life. -

It was actually I wasn't going to drill into my bumper since there wasn't a mounting bracket for a front license plate.. but a pretty fair memory for something 9 years ago. Hell I don't even remember what people in my life did 9 years ago, so kudos for remembering a msg board member.Rotinaj;1169872 wrote:Yep.

of course its not illegal to be sarcastic....but its also not unconstitutional to detain someone for not answering the questions the Border Patrol officer asked.I Wear Pants;1169854 wrote:Until it's illegal to be sarcastic or make non-threatening smart ass remarks the border patrol guy was the only one in the wrong.
