Well, I don't KNOW.
Once (and only once) many years ago, I managed to irritate a CBP officer WHO.......................
Sent me to Secondary, called for a replacement and followed me there. At which point, he and two others emptied EVERYTHING
from my truck, took me inside and sat me in a waiting area while they (supposedly) ran a criminal check on me (including, they said, Interpol) and
then escorted me back to the Secondary area where I was allowed to repack my goods and go on my way.
Two Hours +.
Point Taken.
I have NEVER given them ANY Lip since.
Of course, other than (once in awhile) a "Bit" more alcohol than allowed and (a few times) some Totuava Fillets, I haven't had anything to hide,
including anything on my computers.
Going South was always another matter.
As I said once to a CBP agent, "ALL of my hidden stuff is in the other direction". |
