Brazil already conducts enhanced scrutiny of Americans.. " American citizens are both photographed and fingerprinted as part of their immigration clearance process. This is because Brazil practices diplomatic reciprocity and processes American citizens entering Brazil the same way the U.S. processes Brazilian citizens entering the United States. This is most assuredly NOT the place to demonstrate any displeasure with this process. More that a few Americans (including at least one airline pilot) have been arrested, fined (thousands of dollars) and ejected from the country forever for making an obscene gesture during this process." http://www.brazil-help.com/brazil_travel_tips.htm http://www.brazil-help.com/brazil_travel_tips.htm http://www.economist.com/blogs/gulliver/2013/02/tourist-visas http://www.economist.com/blogs/gulliver/2013/02/tourist-visa...
