I don't disagree with you there!
When I travel, I carry all my prescriptions in one of those Walgreens 7-day pill cases. I use the large size, which would be impossible to miss on a search of my luggage. I've never heard of this being illegal, and I've never been questioned about carrying it, even for trips a months long halfway aound the world. This is because I don't have a controversial radio talk show that government weenies are trying to shut down.
You keep posting this complete BS and then call Rush stupid. Something tells me that being an ethnic minority isn't your biggest handicap.
It isn't a violation of law. Pharmaceutical companies give boxes of scrip drugs to doctors and the doctors then pass them out to their patients without written Rxs or labels all the time. Only idiots say that it is.
But if you're a government officer on duty, you don't have the right to let personal disagreement with a traveler's lifestyle cause you to make up legal distinctions that you can apply preferentially.
Suppose that Limbaugh had gone to a legally operating American brothel like Sherry's Ranch, one that files conventional tax returns and takes Mastercard? Would this still be a reason to steal his legally-obtained prescription and tell the whole world about it?
Moralists often have lousy ethics.
Whoa, a customs official called the DA and the DA called AP?
Yes and it must stop! LOL
Another DA looking to make a name for himself.
That is the scenario I heard today.
How about vitamin pills that are not contained in their original bottles...will you get in trouble for that too?
