Sorry about your luck on the traffic stop. But, from the perspective of tourists entering the US it is a little unnerving to have that kind of treatment. After all they have gone through the process to secure their passports. Yes, there are bad guys out there. And where there is a will they will find a way. But, in all fairness when is it enough? Are DNA samples next? That might seem on the face of it that I'm being dramatic. However, not that long ago it was unthinkable to expect fingerprints of travelers. @jj

I was picked up for a traffic violation once during a 'catch and release program' and processed in a road-side mobile unit. And yes, I too was subjected to this horrible 10-finger method.... Somehow, I survived ;) jj Well.. every American ever arrested gets the 10-finger treatment.
