The FBI says the accused was later spotted walking across a buffer zone at Peace Arch State Park, where people from both countries can visit each other.

Oh, so she wasn't crossing.

This is wholesome!

In U.S. district court documents, the FBI alleges the woman was denied entry at the Peace Arch border crossing, south of Surrey, B.C., because she had a marijuana vape pen.

I'm in love.

Only good cop is a ruined mangled body howling in pain that will never again be able to hold a gun.

Well if they die violently they can be valorized.

OMG you're so hardcore!

I support this action and condemn any potential punishments.

Besides, from what I read, she didn't illegally cross the border.

[-] DrFistington@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago

Sooo... What was the crime?

[-] cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 3 weeks ago

Being so cool she made everyone else look bad.

[-] X@piefed.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

She committed no crime.

[-] RaoulDuke85@piefed.social 7 points 3 weeks ago

There should be more boot stomping of border patrol.

Awesomeness

Unless she was a kickboxer / martial artist, then her assertion that she did not intend to kick anyone on the face is really indicating that they took her down and there was a struggle in which an untrained idiot did a terrible job at restraining her feet whilst she's going down or trying to get up. I hope that whoever received the kick has a fat lip!

special move, "The Maple Staple"

How does someone 'non intentionally' kick someone's face? I appreciate her targeting, I just don't understand it.

[-] frongt@lemmy.zip 24 points 3 weeks ago

she hurled obscenities, resisted arrest and kicked a female supervisor in the face

It sounds like for whatever reason, they tackled her, and while she was on the ground, her foot made contact with the woman's face.

[-] morto@piefed.social 9 points 3 weeks ago

You just ruined my imagination of she giving a high karate-like kick

[-] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yes, but that sounds at least somewhat intentional.

[-] frongt@lemmy.zip 11 points 3 weeks ago

No, it's like when a cop punches you in the face and then you get charged with assault for hurting their hand, and destruction of government property for getting blood on their uniform. And also resisting arrest because you tried to protect yourself after being punched in the face.

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

I love this for her.
