BOSTON (AP) - On April 25, Gregory Despres arrived at the U.S.-Canadian border crossing at Calais, Maine, carrying a homemade sword, a hatchet, a knife, brass knuckles and a chain saw stained with what appeared to be blood. U.S. customs agents confiscated the weapons and fingerprinted Despres. Then they let him into the United States.

At a time when the United States is tightening its borders, how could a man toting what appeared to be a bloody chain saw be allowed into the country?


Since he wasn't asian or black they knew he wasn't a terrorist so why not let him in?

Maybe they ought to have a special line for all the slasher-movie rejects, to expedite the whole process. Cause no one likes waiting in line, even the murderous psychopaths.

Asian as in non-oriental asian descent.

I really wish the Americans would sort out their ethnic terms correctly. It would cause so much less confusion.
