Come to the US for the convict experience:
• Border officer insult you
• Invasion of your privacy
• Seizing your electronics
• Hours of interrogation
• Hours on Concrete with nothing but a space blanket
• Handcuffed
• Full body shackles
• Numbered and unified/dehumanized in conformity with color coded prison uniforms
• isolated & terrorized with discomfort and uncertainty
Jailed for no good reason for an undetermined time.
