A chain was fastened around my waist and I was handcuffed to the chain. Then my legs were placed in chains. I asked for permission to make a telephone call but they refused. So secured, I was taken from the airport terminal in full sight of everybody. I have seldom felt so bad, so humiliated and all because I had taken a longer vacation than allowed under the law.
Oh, wait, no, I got the information counfsued. This was a 33 year old woman from Iceland with a minor visa issue shackled, jailed, and mildly tortured by Homeland Security officials at JFK Airport in New York.
To be honest, I think the homeland security people at the airports to a much better job than was done in the old days, and I personally have not had a problem in many encounters. But having said this, stories like the one reported here need to be investigated and exposed. Or else.
Or else what? Or else US citizens are living in a police state.
Oh, by the way, Erla, Lillendahl, the woman who was captured in the act of being a bourgeois shopper by Homeland Security, appears to be a friend of a blogger. Don't mess with bloggers, man. She recounts the whole story here (the quote above is from this blog).
Looks like the Staatsgrenzpolizei are finally fulfilling their duties of sealing (I mean securing) the borders.
