> but when it comes down to it I think CBP are far more reasonable than they are given credit for because of the crappy environment it happens in I don't think this is true. The circumstances/environment are the same but compare entering America to entering any other country. No country but America has ever fingerprinted me, searched my luggage, detained me in a small room with no explanation for 3 hours, forced the departing airport to search me again after security (on 3 separate but consecutive flights to the US, months apart) or made me spend more than ~10 minutes in a line waiting to get through security or immigration. America has done all of these things.
