Honestly I have received the same treatment for decades on different occasions. Mostly when I had long hair, I was detained so many times for no reason. Sometimes handcuffed, often illegally searched. They profile the fuck out of everyone, it’s been this way forever. I’m not saying it isn’t getting worse.
My family is traveling to Toronto in a little while and we decided to plan a short travel day on our return trip in case the border takes too long. My longest US border detainment was 4 hrs. Me and three friends had spent a few days camping in British Columbia in college. They searched everything, interviewed us all separately. That one was 30 years ago but I’ve had more recent events too
If you think this stuff is new you haven’t been paying attention. It’s why I’m a constitutional rights advocate now. No matter what party is in power, the government needs limits.
