No. If you have additional authority you also have additional accountability. When acting as an agent of the government, you don't have the same set of rights (both more and less) as one would have when acting in a commercial (agent of a corporation) or individual capacity. These are all very distrinct and (somewhat reasonably) well demarcated legal roles. These fundamental principles (with varying levels of default qualified immunity) have been established across many sovereigns for centuries. This person is a moron.
