A video showing what looks to be a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer yelling at a Canadian tourist to “never come to the U.S. again” is being investigated by the CBP.

The 39-second video, uploaded to social media sites, was taken from inside a vehicle travelling south on highway I90 in New York State, a few kilometres from the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge that connects Queenston, Ont., with Lewiston, N.Y.

Even when I used to think more highly of my own country, I still thought most CBP guys are dickheads. Still do.

They are given way too much power over non-citizens and somehow that goes to their heads, making them think they are better than fellow humans.

"The country you are located in is not supported. Sorry for the inconvenience, but we do not allow access in your current location."

Never mind. I have in fact encountered the border militia while in transit at LAX. It was not a pleasant experience.

Boycott US

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
