I think it is missing one key piece of advice - move to Alaska. After living there for several years I can't count how many people I ran into that were running from something and they never seemed too worried about getting found.
- philwelch 17y agoI wonder how you manage that. There's either two border crossings or a whole lotta swimming to get there. Once you're there, though, I imagine you're home free.
- pyre 17y agoI imagine that most of the people there that were 'running from something' weren't running from Border Patrol or the CIA. More likely they either skipped bail for some minor charges, or were running from something like child support, minor drug charges, etc. Things where people have no heavy motivation to seek you out other than to put your name on 'watch lists' (e.g. someone is notified if you use a credit card in your name or something like that).
- philwelch 17y agoWouldn't border patrol check against the watchlist? Canada at least knows if you're on the list of concealed handgun permit holders. I guess with enough forest to sneak through and a "clean" buddy to drive through the borders and pick you up, you'd make it.

- rdtsc 17y agoIf you sneak over the border, wouldn't you just want to stay in Canada rather than go all the way to Alaska?.
- InclinedPlane 17y agoThere are lots of ways to travel to Alaska without crossing an international border. There is regular ferry service from Washington, for example, and air travel, of course.
