I do not understand a checkpoint 75 miles from the border and searching the cars of American citizens. It boggles my mind.
I’ve been through that checkpoint many times. You slow down as you pull up to the checkpoint, roll down your window, they look at you and wave you on. Was there something about this Pastor that seemed suspicious? I doubt it. Maybe they have some sort of system like the TSA at airports where they have to pull someone out of the line for a more thorough search just because.
