"The law does no make any distinction between prescription drugs. Until the law changes, no CBP Officer is going to risk his job for Rush or any other traveler in violation of the law."

So no matter how trivial the circumstances, no matter how silly the facts of the situation, we can rest assured that the Government's automatons are going to act without thinking. Since after all, they are not ALLOWED to think.

I feel so much safer now knowing that some mislabeled Viagra was stopped at the border.

Was Rush arrested or charged with a federal violation?

No, he wasn't! Hence, CBP thought it was trivial and not a violation of federal law.

Your beef is with the local sheriff that is investigating and turning the case over to a State prosecutor.
