They are F***in' A**Holes! They are constantly violating civil rights. "We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." Not so with the the CBP. They are cowards armed with guns! CBP don’t simply ask questions. They are F***in’ A**Holes!

Have you actually looked at the United police States of America lately? Our government, and yes, I am a native born American, has crapped on the Constitution, and wiped their behinds with the Bill of Rights, and sadly, the citizens of this country are allowing it. This country is rapidly becoming a totalitarian police state. I can't blame people of other countries at all, for avoiding it. In my 59 years, I've seen this country go from one that valued the rights of the individual, to one where no one has any real rights, or privacy. I have become so sick of what this country is becoming, I am leaving it for a country that still values the rights of the individual. And as a note, I've recently read in various places, the flow of people coming to the USA is reversing. More people are now leaving the USA than entering. That, in an of itself, tells me something is "VERY" wrong with the direction the United States is taking. BCTCNT

You tell people that have a problem with the government asking questions to stay home. Have you actually looked at the United police States of America lately?

I can’t blame people of other countries at all, for avoiding it. In my 59 years, I’ve seen this country go from one that valued the rights of the individual, to one where no one has any real rights, or privacy.

Obama will continue the downward spiral that started over 100 years ago. There's probably not going to be an easier time than now, it's only going to get worse.

It's too undignifying, demorilising, and against our rights as human beings. I won't stand for it, so I am one of many whose tourist dollars the U.S. is missing out on by their draconian and inhumane border control methods.

I truly hope that as of January 20 the beginning of the end of this terrible time in America will start to fade away.
