... in response to Re: Can we all let CNN, FoxNews, etc...., posted by Brazilophile on Jul 24, 2005Speaking of the treatment of colombians by U.S. customs. One trip I made back from Barranquilla to Miami was horrible. We arrived to Miami they let us get off the plane stopped us at the end of a long hall way and had two female customs agents check everyone passport. They treated everyone like shit especially anyone with a Colombian passport. I watched a older woman who was Colombian but was a U.S citzen get grilled on why she went to Colombia finally the woman snapped and told the agent I went to bury my mother if that was so important for you to find out!!! that stopped the B*tch in her tracks for about 30 seconds.
Then she started on me why did you go there? what were you doing? who did you see? I went to see my wife, I stayed with my wife´s family the entire time and I did nothing the entire time. Then I told her do you have any other questions? she said nothing and I left. I was pissed because those bastards know that everyone of the Colombian there would not say nothing because they were afraid they would get held up or sent back to Colombia because of b.s.
You know this was the time I wish I was someone high up with the government because I would have broke it off in their asses for this crap.
