I can understand scrutiny for drugs, but that’s not what the article says in that instance.

A 5 year old boy, a US citizen of Iranian heritage, was handcuffed and detained in custody in US airport for hours after Trump’s initial immigration EO in January.

No doubt we all wanna feel safe. But sometimes the idiots who enforce these laws are, well, idiots. They give more reason for others to scream “discrimination & racism”.

Ok here’s what I think. I think this was a set up to legally challenge the new eo. This way they would have standing to mount a challenge. Main problem is his mother was treated fine but he was not. Why didn’t mom vouch for son and clear it all up. Or son prove who he was. Its because he was acting either belligerent or purposely evasive in order to bait the officers. It doesn’t make sense that mom was released and son was detained.

Also I doubt that a boy of 5 was handcuffed.
