The logic of vance meme to strip search is quite a convoluted mess.
You never know where they are hiding those dank memes.
Why the fuck are they allowed access to people's personal devices, people have a right to privacy
Because people allow them to. "I forgot the PIN" is still a valid answer. But I want to know why people are bringing their primary phones at all.
Primary phone is just your phone. You bring the one phone ypu have becuse you didn't belive the US had really become Tajikistan levels of draconian.
If you refuse access they immediately refuse entry. Which means you're immediately deported
OK, so in that case, why the fuck are people bringing their normal phones?!
Because you shouldn't need a fuckin burner phone to visit the land of the fuckin free?
Well said
Because they are going on a holiday? Like lmao
Because most people don’t expect border security to demand access to their phone?
Lots of people don't know the US has turned fascist I guess
Aww are the party that never shuts up about hurt feelings hypocrites, shocker
Land of the fee and the home of the slave
The proper response to this is to post that meme to even more places. ✊
