I am going to destroy America. No, totally, for srs

This is what will happen if you staff your border security exclusively with ultraparanoid retards. Of course I'm given the impression that that description would apply to, what, 99.99% of you population? I guess it's inevitable. And also very hilarious. I wonder how long until every facebook and twitter update is treated as a serious terrur threat 

This isn't about anyone thinking this man is a real threat, being ultraparanoid or anything of the sort.

This is about sending a message. That message is: We Are In Charge. Dissent Will Not Be Tolerated.

And the best way they could think of sending out that message was by licking a window and peeing in their pants like little girls?

Nothing is more frightening than a schoolyard bully who not only has 200 lbs on you, but downs syndrome to boot.

Or, looked at a different way, causing the guy to waste his vacation, the price of the tickets, endure an immediate return flight AFTER spending an afternoon in a crappy little room being harassed by customs agents.

Yeah, there is.  The fact that he has 5 other guys with him, and they just might decide to do the old cavity search bit.

This.

A friend of mine is planning a holiday in the US. He has to go and plead his case to the ambassador because he has a DUI charge. He needs to prove that he is a trustworthy soul who can be trusted to set foot on sacred American soil.

Shit like this is about reinforcing the message that they can and will deny you entry to the country for any reason they damn well please. Hopefully in my friend's case, this discovery will only cost him an afternoon rather than a day + a buttload of money.

Up next:  Indefinite detainment for grinning or frowning at "inappropriate" moments.

A real paranoid would assume anything put on Twitter was automatically disinformation.

Anyone stupid enough to post their terrorist plans in 140 characters or less probably isn't capable of building a bomb in the first place, anyway.

Probably still waaaay smarter than Homeland Security, tho, right?

...that's utterly ridiculous. Seriously? A DUI was reason enough to go, "NAWP NOT ALLOWED"?

Dunno yet, I'll let you know after his interview.

Let's just add a little hilarity to that, shall we?

Ambassador says "no problem."

8 hour flight.

Customs agent says "Sorry."

Friend says "I talked to the ambassador's staff, they said no problem."

Customs agent says "Oh, a wise guy.  Please follow these gentlemen to the private screening room.  I'll be along just as soon as I get some rubber gloves and a pound of sand from the ashtrays outside.

I know several Canadians who can't enter the USA because of DUIs.

Plunder a bank, though, and you're good as gold.

Yeeeeeeeah.

At the same time we're extraditing our own citizens over to the US to face criminal charges for actions which are not crimes in the UK.

Good thing we're great friends and allies, right?

Well, if you don't, we'll just kidnap them off of your streets.  We've said as much, openly.

Friends and allies.  Remember that.  Not vassals or anything.  No, really, we believe in equality and the rule of law.  Our law.
