- hoerzu 3y agoI saw that case. But the TSA agents are like ok otherwise we send you home. I'm happy to make a case but I think it's unlikely to be worth the stress and money
- usr1106 3y agoWhich has told me as a European that the US is an unreasonable place I don't want to enter anymore, neither for business nor leisure. But I have full understanding for people who are in a situation that the US is still the smaller evil.

- etothepii 3y agoIt depends what you mean. In the UK our institutions are centuries old. Heck the working class house my grandmother lived in until she died was older than the state of California. The constitution is only as strong as the institutions that defend it. The U.S. is not there yet but the political nature of the courts and the judiciary are an anathema to a Brit.
