Why would you refuse a border guards request?

So what did we learn from all this? Do not throw chairs around at the airport and do not ask the US border guards to say please.

| He said he has travelled across the border many times without incident and is now considering legal action.
"I am in contact with [a lawyer] in Bellingham," he said. "I don't much about these things so I don't know what to do."
Good fucking luck with that one you fuckhole.

Canadian border guards are a joke compared to US guards. They're not there to protect the border, they're there to collect duty taxes.

The guy is a moron for asking....but pepper spray???? cmon thats just a border guard with an itch to spray and was given the bare minimum excuse to do it.
You know that guy was all amped up in the locker room like a 12 year old boy after he did it, just laughing it up.

you can't force people to be polite. you just have to deal with it.

haha PWND
yah this shouldn't have happened
seriously.. those guys are guards.. they were trained to protect the border.. not a be hostess.. it's kinda like cops.. they don't have to be polite.. just shut the fuck up.. do what they ask.. and you'll be on your way.. of course it would be nice if they weren't dicks..

Both sides could have done things differently. If he just shut off his motor, nothing would have happened, and if the guard just said please, nothing would have happened.
Instead, a guy gets a face full of mace... for what?
A little diplomacy goes a long way. | The guard did not need to say please. It is not part of the job description. It is, however, a part of crossing the boarder that you abide by what the boarder guards tell you to do.
Simple as that. The driver was clearly at fault. Anyone that says anything different is an IDIOT.

Or perhaps he did, and we aren't getting the whole story.
I think it could have been resolved without the mace and gang tackle. But that's just me. | The guard told the guy to shut off the car or he'd get pepper sprayed, the guy responded by telling the guard to say please, and not shutting off the car. What grey area can you possibly see in this?
