And the Meek Shall Inherit The World E-mail

The first thug (sorry, Customs Official) you encounter forms the opinion that you might be carrying copyrighted material in accordance with the US proposal to be taken to the upcoming G8 meeting

NOW your problems start.  The mere suspicion of unlawful copyrighted material is enough to potentially lose your laptop, camera, MP3 player etc.  No appeal, no consideration, no recourse. 

If you’re lucky, the contents will be deleted and the device returned, eventually.

I’m left wondering whether the American authorities actually feel the urge to support air travel – both domestic and international travellers are targeted here.

If you want to achieve anything (including actually getting onto your flight), you’ll have to pull your head in and accept whatever treatment the refugee burger-flippers decide to visit upon you.

For only the meek shall inherit their rightful place (airline seat).
