re: Border patrol agent pulls gun on Boy Scout

"What I've learned over the years, when you hear shocking stories like this, what really happened isn't exactly like the story says it happened."

I used to agree with this ENTIRELY ... and then life happened to someone in my family and we started to see camera phone videos. Government abuse of power exists and until it happens to you or someone you know well, it is tempting to think that the victim did something wrong. That MAY be true, but it's not always the case. Far from it.
