General Discussion

Many years ago my brother was harassed coming back from Germany. These people are very arrogant and have too much power in most countries. He and my mother were coming back together.

For some reason they sent my brother off to be interrogated( he and my mother were not yet US citizens then and were going through the foreign line). The man told him it was illegal for him to work in Germany! He was a post doc then and it was not illegal. Then he started asking him about his US taxes, had he paid them etc. My brother told him he had to pay taxes in Germany then not the US. The man also said that my brother's green card status was going to be in jeopardy. My brother said no it was not, he had been living in the US since he was a child etc.

Finally the jackass let him go and admitted he had done nothing wrong, I can't remember the exact words. He should have made a complaint but never did. That was over 40 years ago!

Not long after that he and my mom became US citizens. I was the first and had done it with a friend a couple of years before that.

So, although you are a citizen, I assume, I do recommend being cautious with all of the crap going on now.
