I was treated in an intimidating way while crossing from Canada to the USA. After two days and seven hours of being intimidated and insulted by my country's 'officers' I was allowed to return to my home in Washington state. I wrote to my congressmen but I would like to take it further. Who else can I tell this story to? I am ashamed that US officers are allowed to act like gestapo. Sickened, really. Pissed to the point of being enraged.

That would be the Department of Homeland Security. Do you know if it was a US border patrol officer or a US ICE officer? Both are under DHS but have different jobs. If you were detained for two days it sounds like you had a run in with ICE.

Probably making up for their comrade allowing the TB lawyer into the country so easily even though he was flagged....
DHS handles INS, CBP, ICE. Like mentioned, if you were detained for 2 days, was probably an ICE agent.
