getting into the US !

[decode]

Want to go the usa this year but due to an indescretion in my youth (nearly 20 years ago) I have a criminal record.

I know if you are travelling to the US, the visa waiver program doesn't apply if you have a conviction so you have to apply for
a special vias which can take up to five months.

I'm tempted just to go and sign the waiver on the plane on the way over. As far as I know there is no way of immigration in the
US checking this as they don't have access to this information.

Has anyone else been in a similar situation and done this?

Do you like orange boiler suits?

Would you like to be close to Cuba?

what did you get done for?

"Murder, rape, arson and rape."

"You said rape twice"

"I like rape"

Awwww, bless.

All of your personal details held by the UK government are in the hands of the CIA before you're halfway across the Atlantic. There's a "war on terror" doncha know.

A terrorist* AND a drug dealer.

* Thanks to our home grown peace loving Muslims, we are all viewed as terrorists by the US.

Get ready for the chair on arrival then...

Seriously, I'm going to take a guess that they won't let you in. It'd be easier to get into Iran as a Christian missionary.

F**k me, they'll probably send you to guantanamo bay for that little indiscretion.
