          I would hazard that Mom is going to end up being extradited to America under the 'terrorism' legislation.

            Americans are soooo unwelcoming - why would anyone want to visit?

            Apart from disneyworld of course.

                Back in my misspent youth many moons ago a mate and I drove a Camarro from the East to the West Coast (we loved it so much we did it again 2 years later). I found the Yanks to be amazingly open, hospitable and friendly.

                    The people you met are the ordinary, everyday people that you meet the world over and are generally (though not always) friendly and polite.

                    The people in this news report are those "with authority" and tend to behave as though everyone is scum as a matter of course. It's depressing.
