DHS Will Now Vet UK Air Passengers To Mexico, Canada, Cuba
First time accepted submitter illtud writes "From April, UK passengers flying to Mexico, Eastern Canada or Cuba will have to submit their details at least 72 hours before boarding to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security for pre-flight vetting (as all passengers to the U.S. itself have had to do for a while). If they find against you, you're not getting on the plane, even though you're not going to the U.S. The Independent (UK quality newspaper) has the story."
FUCK YEAH!
This is an interesting step; in general countries are a lot more strict on entering their territory than leaving it.
Countries yes, but states no. For New Jersey, it is free to enter across the bridge. But you need to pay to leave.

This shit right here is why I FUCKING HATE April Fools Day.
If I was an evil dictator, I would implement all of my worst schemes on April first and no-one would bat a fucking eye.
The people with the British accents are the bad guys.
My ism, it's full of beliefs.
I think most people are more than willing to pay to leave New Jersey.

No. Everybody wants to flee New Jersey.
Sleep your way to a whiter smile...date a dentist!
Australia already does this -- you have to clear immigration to leave. They make you fill out a card specifying who you are, if you're coming back, when, where you're staying overseas and so forth.
Australia was a prison colony.
As a New Jerseyan, I can definitely say they're charging you to leave. They make way more money that way.

Well, faced with that masterful rebuttal, I suppose I have no choice but to fall in line and believe that everything the american government does is just fine and dandy.

they only take the piss if it's in larger bottles. 100ml at a time should be fine.

American tourism is bombing, tourist industries are crashing, income is burning out and management are exploding.
I think you've overloaded the entire NSA internet monitoring apparatus with one single post. Good job!
