A court conviction for almost anything, will stop you from crossing the border into the U.S.A.
Just being charged, even simply being arrested, puts you on the radar of th U.S. Border Patrol, Homeland Security, ICE, ATF, basically all law enforcement in the U.S.
So if you think it’s the “be vaccinated” mandate that’s going to stop you at the border… Ha!
So, to you dear Anti-Mask, Anti-Vax, Anti-Mandate protesters… since you put your self ahead of others, perhaps you’ll sit down, have a smoke (careful what you put into your bodies), and think carefully about that “You’re not the boss of me mentality”, maybe even get over yourself.
BTW… Can we presume that this pro-choice movement of yours will make it across the border? Women everywhere would love your support… or is it truly just about you.
