You think a guard having a power trip is what stops terrorists? Interesting.

I think a guard doing his job is actually what stops terrorists.

If giving examples of runaway fascism, that is a real thing that can and in some countries, IS happening, is your definition of strawmaning, then that is what I did.

If you think this Behavior is acceptable by border guards - Then, by ALL MEANS, do nothing. Seems like your good at that, so carry on because that's all Fascism needs to run amok. You do you.

The rest of the people in the U.S and Canada will go out in the heat and cold and hold signs and bitch until we are blue for you.

So go have an Icehouse and chill, Brah.
