Don't forget to vote Nov 2nd to rid America of the unelected goon squad as it will never change, and get worse, if they stay!

I can't wait to go back to the past with a party in power that burns Christian families alive and sends children back to communist butchers!

You need to file a formal complaint IMMEDIATELY with customs. If for no other reason than to make sure this doesn't happen to him again. I hope he has a badge number of the officer(s).

Immigration and Nationality act:

They do respect their own law as long as they have "reasonnable doubt" to think that an alien is either a terrorist or a criminal. Of course, reasonnable doubt is never defined.

Here is an analysis of the USA Patriot act that the eff did:
