Why are US customs agents so talkative? I cringed hard when a US customs agent asked me if I was on vacation. He doesn’t need to know why I went to another country as long as I am a U.S. citizen.

They are looking for smugglers. It can be drugs, or it can be that duty free Rolex you bought on vacation that’s on your wrist.

I remember when Muhammad Ali’s son returned to the USA with a male friend. He was calling it racism that the customs officer wanted to view the contents of his phone and laptop. No it is two men returning from Vietnam. Lots of underage children are sold in the sex trade to sex tourists. They were looking for kiddie porn. Sex tourism is repugnant enough when it’s western men and enslaved adults. Children sex slaves and that trade makes my stomach hurt.

I had to explain this to a friend that thought his constitutional rights were infringed. No, you have no constitutional rights outside the USA. When you return to the USA these rights are curtailed until you clear customs. Customs agents have x rayed people and found drugs being body packed. This then allowed the customs agents to get a doctor to actually run a camera up your anus.

Can you fly an American flag in the UK in your own private property there? What is the UK’s government stance on that? And if yes, do you also have to fly the UK flag or the American flag can fly solo?

Customs agent: Nice watch!

Smuggler: (nervous laugh) Yeah I, uh yeah, got it, yeah for Christmas last year.

Customs agents go through your luggage and find the receipt, paperwork, and the box from where you bought it in Aruba.
