Young blonde woman from Iceland.... Gets treated like a terrorist dog when she tried to visit the United States last month.

They caged her up in some criminal detaining facility, and did all sorts of crazy shit. (Nothing like rape, though. It was mostly typical mistreatment & depriving of basic human rights that a LA police officer would deliver to a Black man in Southern L.A.)
Shit, if this is true than that's fucked up. I thought shit like that only happened to minorities. Or people who look poor.
I never had anything like that happen to me, and I'm a pretty suspicious looking guy.
She's rather attractive looking too. It's just ballz out insane that a full blown Caucasian woman got treated like some Middle Eastern terrorist.
To think her only crime is that she's a foreigner who slightly overstayed her visa.
I mean fuck, I've gotten away with much worse, but I guess my advantage is that I'm not a foreigner. (I just look like one.)

Strange, I haven't heard anything about this in the 'liberal media', and like Fox News always says, the 'liberal media' loves to report anything that makes the U.S. look bad. Oh, 'liberal media', how can you be so devoted to making the U.S. look bad and at the same time ignore any stories that make the U.S. look bad?
"According to news today here in Iceland the Foreign Ministry received a letter from the DHS, where they regret the treatment Erla got, admit it was out of proportion, and that they will review their processes in the light of this incident. We can also thank, Mrs. Ingibjörg Sólrún Gísladóttir, FM of Iceland, and the U.S. Ambassador in Iceland, Mrs.Carol van Voorst, who is a great representative for her nation. Hopefully these three women have started something, that will improvethe situation for all of us...That's the standard bullshit procedure when they're caught. We fucked up, we're sorry(and we're not being patronizing assholes), and we'll deal with this so it never happens again. Or at least so that you never find out about it.
If she ever returned to the U.S.(which I'm sure neither she, nor any Icelandic citizen, will ever do), they'd probably detain her again using the same exact procedure because of the same Visa violation. This isn't our country anymore. Though I really can't say I know whose it is.

I thought I replied to this before but I guess not. I read that and that was retarded. She wasn't doing anything at all but yet was interrogated and held prisoner for NO REASON. That's so stupid and pointless. She's obviously NOT some kind of a terrorist. Idiots.

Because of this kind of bullshit that we've been pulling, our allies are starting to view us as terrorists.

Yeah, didn't Canada list the United States as a terrorist state? Or at least not directly.
Though this story is quite surprising; seeing a woman like this being treated horribly. Something like this would probably happen to a middle easterner, etc. I guess this just shows how bad the DHS is.

Yeah, I don't remember exactly what they did, but they put us alongside the likes of outright terrorist nations because we (goddamn us) have abducted a few Canadian citizens (it might have been while they were in their own country, in fact) and detained them in Guantanamo or somewhere where they were tortu...I mean...advance interrogated...
