April 2, 200422 yr Link Finally, the US govment started to think a little bit. Before this they just asked for fingerprint countries, the majority, that were in development (like my country). It took some time, but they realized that terrorists could come from a lot of countries.
April 2, 200422 yr Author i think it's a good move... Yeah, but the tourism will suffer from that. And all the other countries have the right to do the same thing.
April 2, 200422 yr The Punisher Ok, now back on topic. In this day and age, this is a necessary thing.
April 2, 200422 yr Yeah, but the tourism will suffer from that. And all the other countries have the right to do the same thing. let them do the same. they have a right to protect their people too. it needs to be done and tourism will adjust.
April 2, 200422 yr Lets just say that the US was none too pleased when Brazil started doing the same to US citizens. Brazil said - remove our restrictions and we'll remove yours. Oh yeah, if you flip off the camera (it's happened a dozen times over there or so) they just send you back on the next plane.

April 3, 200422 yr Not yet anyway.... but I'm on to you. I fall asleep to the sounds of skates sharpening every night.

April 3, 200422 yr Non-issue IMO. US security is so lame when compared to the rest of the world. Walk through an Israeli airport sometime...
April 3, 200422 yr Brazil should take our fingerprints so when we get kidnapped for ransom over there we can be tracked down easier...
April 3, 200422 yr Author Brazil should take our fingerprints so when we get kidnapped for ransom over there we can be tracked down easier... So kidnapp just happens in Brazil, right? Stupid comment.
April 3, 200422 yr i didn't know i had to list every country with kidnappings except for the fact that a major problem with US tourism in Brazil is the ransom kidnappings...therefore, it wasn't a stupid comment, it was a relevant comment...
April 3, 200422 yr Author i didn't know i had to list every country with kidnappings except for the fact that a major problem with US tourism in Brazil is the ransom kidnappings...therefore, it wasn't a stupid comment, it was a relevant comment... And the problem with the tourism in the US is the danger to be shot by a crazy man after you leave the bus. Which is the worst?
April 3, 200422 yr i never said there were no drawbacks to tourism in the us, you should stop being so uptight about everything, that leads to ulcers, trying to please everyone is ridiculous, my point is that i find it ridiculous brazil was so appalled by us finger printing people...

They started in here to respond to the treatment that Brazilians receive in the US. It's not for the security for the country. Kidnapp happens in here with everyone, they kidnap everyone, it's not because is a tourist, if show money they kidnap. Violence in here is huge, it's a shame, but that's because the social disparity in here is absurd.
