Makes you wonder if it is safe to go to the US or even stop over .

It's only a matter of time - they are already on "lists" which the US government is so fond of creating for others...
This shit is a continuation of WTO violation where US domestic laws - the Wire Act, Travel Act and the new Illegal Gambling Business Act are contrary to WTO rulings and in violation of US obligations under global trade agreements.
The issue has already been heard and judged upon and a final enforcement ruling is epected anytime now where it's only a matter of the US agreeing to comply or suffer penalties/barriers to trading with WTO nations.
It's ironic the issue of David Carruthers (BetOnSports) is still continuing - and the US considers it can arrest individuals on issues where the US has already been judged to be in violation of WTO rulings. But.. there are idiots everywhere and until the US does comply - their own laws are worth ignoring.
It's time a few US citizens were arrested on foreign soil for violation of domestic laws - what's good for one is good for another
Na... avoid even doing stop-overs in the US - don't travel to rogue regimes or police states - they need to learn how to behave first
Noticed the same with others flying here - they cringe at flights via the US and prefer direct - not that they are legal issues - it's just a pain in the ass.
