Finger printing for US visit but not Canada, Japan.. I don't get it

[blackmonsters]

The US is now finger printing people who enter the country but some countries are exempt. Countries like Canada and Japan and about 26 other countries are exempt.

I don't get it. The terrorist will just get fake documentation from Canada and walk in and blow us the fuck up. How hard is it to get fake docs? Gee, just ask someone on Los Angeles.

This reminds of how the gov was strip searching blacks to find two fucking joints and letting the hi-jackers just walk right in.

I don't think the finger printing is going to stop shit any way. Who gives a shit about giving you their finger prints if they are going to blow themselves up in 5 mins anyway.

There must be something else behind this finger printing and it's just hiding behind terrorism.

10 to 1 by the year 2010 if not sooner, everyone will be required to wear a wristband when they go out in public with a bar code on it for complete scanning and tracking capabilities of our every move.

The problem is doing something that amount to fucking nothing.

The next fucking nothing will be giving dental xrays to flight passengers to detect high explosive fillings that blow up when the terroist bite down on a chicken bone. Which will be foiled by kicking Kentucky Fried Chicken out of all airpot and bus terminals.

Sounds about right the way things are going. Freedom has gone down the shitter and your government would love you to believe that it's the terrorist's fault. IMO the biggest threat to freedom is the government. They're using terrorism as the justification to put in place programs that they've probably wanted to have for years but knew it would never be supported by the public.

Agreed.

People entering the United States who hold a Visa area required to be fingerprinted regardless of their country of origin.

This does not apply to people from western Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan who come to the United States on the Visa waiver program.

Main objective of this new program is to make sure people do not overstay their visa.

Anyone on this board who has travelled internationally from the United States knows that the US Government does not control exits, therefore the US Government does not know who left or who stayed. Visa holders are required to surrender their I94 form at the port of exit, however if one person claims to have lost the I94 form, that person has 99.9% chance of leaving the US, without the INS knowing they ever left or overstayed their visa.

With the new system, visa holder will be fingerprinted when entering and soon when leaving, thus making it virtually impossible to overstay one's visa and not be noticed.

Will this stop Timothy McVeigh or the Unibomber from blowing us the fuck up. Oh wait, we only care about Muslims blowing us up. It's ok if a fucking rednecked cracker from Idaho blows us the fuck up. I keep fogetting.
