Quote from AAAintheBeltway:
... but we have plenty of resources for officers to check the names on individual prescription bottles in the luggage of a wealthy talk show host, who obviously poses no danger whatsoever to national security.
What makes it so obvious that the wealthy individual poses no threat? Because he is wealthy or because he is a talk show host? Just curious.
I guess we should strip search all poor people who are not talk show hosts because they must be danger to the national security...
Sometimes the most unbelievable is possible, so I think the custom officials should not be taken to task for doing their jobs. They caught a big fat bigot with prescription drugs written in his doctor's name because of privacy... and this guy had been abusing drugs. So, they had the right to check his pills. Maybe those were those happy pills in a viagra bottle? They had to be sure because they knew that this scumbag was abusing prescription pills.
As for what was he doing with those blue pills... that is a different question. Because he is an arch conservative, he surely was not humping those latina chicas for a few pesos out there... that would be morally wrong. However, I think there are some goats and some cows about whom, if the PETA knew about would have created another ruckus.
