A Canadian says he got a face full of pepper spray after repeatedly asking a U.S. border inspector in Blaine, Wash., to say please. Desiderio Fortunato says he thought the inspector who told him to turn off his engine Monday was rude and asked him to say please.

The 54-year-old British Columbia resident told The Bellingham Herald that the inspector repeatedly ordered him to turn the car off and then said he would spray him if he didn't.

Fortunato says he was stunned and blinded by the pepper spray and was pulled out of the car and handcuffed. He was detained about 3 hours.

Customs and Border Protection spokesman Mike Milne (MILL'-en) in Seattle says it was a lawful order that travelers must obey. He says the use of force is under review.

Both of them were stubborn bastards, it's just that one had authority and pepper spray. The only difference

Border agent: "Give me your passport sir."
Canadian guy: " Nuh huh, you have to say please!"
Border agent: "Passport sir"
Canadian guy: "Say it say it"
Border agent: "Passport sir"
*Awkward silence*
Border agent: "Last time i ask, Passport sir"
*Canadian guy wait*
Border agent: "Sir, i will have to ask you to get out of the vehicule"
Canadian guy: "Ask it with a please!"
Border agent: "Okay fuck this shit!"
Border agent [Pepper spray] Canadian guy.

Quebec has a different outlook on most everything. You guys should work on the separatist movement again

i can see both sides of this.

border agents are notorious for being complete assholes for no reason other then they can, but at the same time just do what they say to get it over with

but pepper spray instead of saying please? lol way to go.

When did it become okay to use this kind of force on people who aren't presenting a danger to anyone?

It's more directed towards the number of people who make light of this or take no issue with it.
