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.

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.

Customs agent: Nice watch!

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

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

How long can someone with narcissistic tendencies maintain a facade of fake love before their true self is revealed? Is there a specific trigger or amount of time that causes them to reveal their true nature?

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.

Romania in the past was a poor country, but last year the government announced it had 521 billion leu (113$ billion dollars) revenue. Why is so much? What's the reason?
