Some of the attitudes in this thread seem peculiar to say the least. For a nation supposedly all about 'freedom', it doesn't seem to be a very free or just place and you have people almost cheering it on. Then people say 'Well, unless you live here, you cannot comment'. The truth is, I honestly wouldn't want to go to a place that treats people like that and seemingly more people feel the same way going on the tourist numbers. I genuinely do enjoy freedom and being left to my own devices, to be able to move around without being hassled or persecuted. It's wrong that this bloke keeps getting detained and what makes it worse is that ordinary people end up saying 'Good'. Terrible things happen when good people say nothing, or worse of all encourage it thus giving the state even greater hubris. There was a writer from New Zealand who had the same thing happen to her. She has been to the states dozens of times, yet was put through hours of stress. She won't return, just an ordinary decent woman.
