Today of all day I have been in doubt. My feeling was definitely tell me something is isn’t right today.

My son is traveling to U.S. for 1year abroad study in UNC-Chapel Hill

Before this he had an interview at US Embassy in London, getting the visa wasn’t straight forward. Due to fact he a British Pakistani has the name Mohammed.

Pissed off today. The term make America Great, don’t think so.

Kasi arrived on time for continuous flight.
Had to go a U.S. Preclearance Dublin before you broad the next flight.

Make him wait for 2 hours let him go after his flight has departed. Even said to the officers from U.S customs and Border, I have a flight to catch.

That’s asshole said haven’t we all have. They won’t go with out you.

If I was there believe me, I would have give him a fucking mouth full.

Has to paid for next flight and book hotel.

It’s been 26 years since I haven’t step in US.

US Customs border force can suck dick. Being a bully, treating people like this.

If it wasn’t for Britain you’ll be speaking French, wish you did now.

I’m sorry that happened to your son, Mo. I don’t blame you at all for the frustration. I’m glad he’s safe and was only inconvenienced, not harassed or detained further.

@sabergirl

I can tolerate this happening to me. Am use to all kind of grief. Never get put down easily.

But don’t want see my kids go through all this.
I have kept them simple. Follow the rules roam free, live your life happily.

️️ no worries homie

[Mizmazzle]

@Kasi that really sucks dude. Is he going to be able to get over here soon?
I know you know, but the government is rarely a reflection of the people. (Not that that makes this issue any easier)

[Bridger]

6 January 2021. There are other places for your son to study.

[Kasi]

@Mizmazzle
I calm him down, hope for the best tomorrow. Get on flight to US. Something that’s will stay in his mind, won’t be forgotten.

[goosehd]

Mo, I’m sorry for what has happened.

Also a reminder to everyone not to cross the line regarding forum rules.

Thank you.

[Kasi]

@Bridger
You can’t pick any random place.
International student only one gets to go aboard. For each university. Got to have high grades to meet the criteria.

[Kasi]

@goosehd Dennis heat of the moment. With the US border force.

Not with my American homies.

No line gonna be across.

[goosehd]

@Kasi I know. I just need to stress that the discussion not cross that line. As a father and a person in general, I would be frustrated as well and understand.

I just don’t want to clean up this thread for people that want to steer the conversation one way or another off of the point being made.

[Bridger]

@Kasi I hope it works out well for your son

[Anesthetist]

I’m sorry Mo, this isnt the American way that I know and love. Thoughts and prayers for you & your son.
