Andrew Feldman, a Hungarian-born Holocaust survivor who's currently a psychotherapist in Vancouver, was recently detained for four hours, fingerprinted, and then barred entry into the United States after Homeland Security googled him and found an article he wrote in a literary and scientific journal in which he talked about using LSD and various other drugs in the 1960's. And even though he has no criminal record and says he hasn't used drugs since the 1970's, Feldmar must now get formal permission from the U.S. consul before entering the U.S.

This is atrocious. Who the hell does DHS think they are that they can perpetrate this with impunity? As a Canadian I have never had a high regard for the US Border Agents but after reading this story I'm sure you know that the DHS is despised.

I hope the ACLU or some such body takes the government to court for such an illicit use of the internet for barring a visitor who has family in the States.

USA. Home of the fearful and land of the paranoid. Must beware psychologists especially says DHS since they have many complexes.
