Seems like because of politics, CBP are held to accountability for crimes, but regular cops are not. If this was some Ma**h*** cop, I'm sure it would have been logged as self-defense, and that would be the end of it.

Nah. It's to the point a guy can't even hold up a gas station without getting heat for it.
