Two border control agents at the U.S.-Mexico border encouraged a 16-year old to drink liquid meth, government surveillance footage shows. As the Daily News reports, the teenager would die less than two hours later.

In video published by ABC News, officers Valerie Baird and Adrian Perallon appear to persuade Mexico native Cruz Velazquez to take four sips from liquid-filled bottles that tests would later confirm contained a highly-concentrated solution of methamphetamine.

The 2013 video shows the officers examine the two bottles, then give the OK for Valezquez to consume the liquid. The teenager later became agitated and started shouting “my heart” in Spanish.

“I never asked him to. He volunteered to and I believe I gestured to him to go ahead,” Perallon insisted.

1. Another two people who have no business being officers of any kind.

Really, who does shit like that... encourage someone - a teenager in this case, for God's sake - to overdose. Are these the kind of people we want protecting our borders? I say no. They have proven that they are capable of making really stupid decisions. Yet they got through the hiring process. How did that happen, I wonder.

2. They have swallowed the oligarchs' racist contempt for the poor, and minorities.

They may be able to repress anxiety about their behavior now, as they create alienation, grief, despair as they abuse
their power of the voiceless, powerless poor here and elsewhere, but sooner or later it will catch up with them with a ferociousness which will take their breath away.
