Quite seriously, yes.
If your skin color provides “reasonable suspicion” that you’re an illegal immigrant, you can be shoved into a van by masked, unmarked possible government agents and sent to a foreign torture facility indefinitely.
Your citizenship won’t matter, because you don’t get a trial, because your skin is brown and that seems kind of illegal.

Some progress has been made. If I ever fly out of a US airport again I understand I no longer have to take my shoes off before going through security!
New scanners work quite well.
Liquids, laptops, shoes…you don’t need to take them out anymore. They just scan it all in one go.
I hope you’re able to avoid that until the US hypothetically settles down in some future year.
Sounds like ICE has disappeared a disabled US veteran who’s a citizen.

Or does the Prison Lobby have a say in that?
