After a good long question period they proceeded to Strip search me. All the while the friendly US Customs guy was snapping his rubber gloves to induce some serious fear. During this ordeal I eventually admitted to trying Marijuana and that was all they needed. Zero tolerance = BANNED in the USA.
I had absolutely no drugs on me. I will never again trust a Customs official again or those stupid dogs.
I am now allowed back in the USA follwing 2 appeals, 2 years and lots of $$$$ for the US Government. At least they gave me a peice of paper indicating I am a threat to US Society...

Cool ... you have a piece of paper that states you're a threat to US society? Just because you smoked a joint or three? That's almost worth the ban. I'd frame that puppy and hang it above my sofa.
