Sometimes I look at the border patrol in my town and think “if it weren’t for the laws of this land I would’ve decked you by now, wey.”
#I was coming back to the US from my vacation in mexico on a bus with other latines and 1 black woman#(she said she was coming home early because she was a nurse in Austin)#anyways besides everyone else there me and her were the only ones who spoke english fluently (and y'know had american citizenship)#anyways shes in the front of line right and i go to a longer one so i can text my folks that im back in the states#im jamming out as I wait and i notice that despite being one of the first people off the bus.... shes still there at the start of the line#arguing with one of the agents#I consciously go through a change when crossing the border- in Mexico I'm more emotive#in the states I basically shut down all emotion from my face and yes I look pissed off its whatever#anyways I finally get to the front (mind you there were like 10 people in front of me) and the agent is snarky af in spanish#I look the fucker in the eye and in my slow texan drawl state that I'm coming home from visiting my grandmother. The change is instant.#I glance over at the lady as I head towards the bus. Its been 30 minutes. It takes an hour for her to return to us. By then shes crying#she and the other passengers began talking about how disrespectful those agents were and have been for some time#I filed a complaint of course- that hasn't been their only issue which is yikes#its so fucking embarrassing to see a latine agent be racist against other latines and black folk like chill wey you aint white dumbass#tw racism#racism#black lives matter
