But did they have a Gun...Did you have your Fingerprints Taken...Were you photographed..Did you have to complete a useless form saying you have nothing to declare..did you have to collect your luggage...Did you have to stand in-line to recheck you baggage...Try Flying as an International Transit Passenger through USA sometime and you will soon discover that what happened to you is nothing compared with what I have to endure when Transiting USA
