As a US citizen I am slightly embarrassed by this. Unless there is more to the story than the author is telling, it's a ridiculous way to treat those wishing to see our great country. There was nothing in his suitcase and he said nothing incriminating, the only thing he did wrong was to be a traveler of the world.

    "We are under the impression you have more ties with more countries we are not on friendly terms with than your own. We decided to bring you back to the Canadian border."
-What a crock.
