When stories like this appear in the press, it is always the victims, who have already been smeared by the FBI, whose names appear. Why not the FBI agents involved in a sketchy raid? Who are the macho men who manhandled a professor? They deserve their own fame.

Who are the macho men who manhandled a professor?

Here's a crazy stereotype. I'm willing to risk the downvotes just to say it:

The football jocks from high school are the ones who become FBI agents. Of course, they'll always resent the nerdy Asians who got better grades.

That's an unusual analysis of high school dynamics and the persistence thereof.
