Man 'refused entry into US' as border control catch him with bald JD Vance meme
-
The United States is such a shithole country lol
No one should travel there.
Um excuse me, who else can defend peace and freedom and democracy? They make all the best weapons!

This not only has been going on awhile, it's worse than it sounds.
A French scientist was denied entry at the border earlier this year, in March, after officers unearthed messages criticising Trump on his phone.
Mikkelsen explained: "They threatened me with a minimum fine of $5,000 or five years in prison if I refused to provide the password to my phone."

And I thought it was already ruled that they can't hold someone for that long just for not giving up a password at the border?

China makes some pretty good rail guns, im told.

they are not legal, as the first amendment applies even to noncitizens. however that doesn’t mean they can’t deny entry for “any” reason. they are fascist after all.
wrote last edited by [email protected]It has been ruled by SCOTUS that the Constitution specifically does not apply at border entry to non-citizens:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_ex_rel._Knauff_v._Shaughnessy
the Constitution does not grant aliens any protections when trying to enter the United States.
https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-S8-C18-8-7-3/ALDE_00001263/['article', '14']
an alien "on the threshold of initial entry stands on a different footing" because he or she is theoretically outside the United States and typically beyond the veil of constitutional protection.
https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/345/206/
Although a lawfully resident alien may not captiously be deprived of his constitutional rights [to due process], the alien in this case is an entrant alien or "assimilated to that status" for constitutional purposes.
The Attorney General therefore may exclude this alien without a hearing, as authorized by the emergency regulations promulgated pursuant to the Passport Act, and need not disclose the evidence upon which that determination rests.

Depressingly, SCOTUS has ruled that you really don't have the same rights at border crossings as you do once you've passed through.
This applies to citizens as well as foreign nationals.
wrote last edited by [email protected]You have even less rights at border crossings if you are not a citizen and have not technically entered the country through immigration yet... basically the Constitution does not even apply:

A 21-year-old tourist has described the horrendous treatment he allegedly received after being denied entry to the USA due to a meme depicting JD Vance as bald being found on his phone
While you are all memeing fascism advances, great job all

Same thing i asked the other guy who posted this.
Do you have a source that isn’t a tabloid? The only other sources i found were other tabloids.
I’m sure horrible shit is happening but tabloids aren't news. They are meant to get an emotional reaction via mistruths and exaggeration. And you having a one day old account makes this even more suspect.
Well the CPB claims it was for drug use, but I don't trust them
Though it DOES indicate that there is more to the story than just tabloid bait

Do they have the right to search your phone ?
If it can be unlocked through biometrics yes, according to SCOTUS
ALWAYS use a passcode, you cannot be compelled to divulge those
-
Not sure how that's relevant, but I disagree.
wrote last edited by [email protected]So you've got two genocidal states, one has healthcare (that actually does apply to Uyghurs because it's a cultural genocide/slavery thing not an extermination) and the other wants to start WW3.
Why is the first a shit hole comparable to America? They're clearly different tiers of fascist states. Everyone not a fascist state>China>Shitholes like America

I had one say they preferred Trump to Hilary because "at least he is helping the USSR expand" so maybe
You gotta screenshot things like that.

See - this is the thing with people going on about how its so oppressive in countries outside of "The West" where they will arrest people for insulting their king on Facebook or some shit.
We are no better. I'm not American but Britain does the same kind of shit. Read some declassified police case files, the cops pick on weird shit on people's phones.

Organ harvesting doesn't count as healthcare

I've been in Britain before, they didn't check my phone

Someday you'll figure out what it means that even the Uyghurs hearing about what American healthcare is actually like are shocked that it isn't propaganda.
