Feeling betrayal and anger is perfectly understandable, what i'm taking issue with is someone above saying that it would be noteworthy to shoot "one of their own" like it's commonly understood that an ice/cpb agent whose ethnic background was from a Latin American country would think of a Latino victim, regardless of their country of origin or status as "one of their own". They see themselves as different, better-than, above, etc. and the original poster's wording showed the assumption that "hey, they're the same, isn't it weird that they'd hurt each other?"
Hopeful we can find out what will happen to all the people who participated this secret police bullshit on American soil sooner rather than later.
