6. They overstepped

US Customs and Border's authority when my husband and I traveled back from Belize on our honeymoon in April. Not only that - CBP has documented it, the shenanigan's in the Belize City Airport that have been going on since October of last year, and we've filed a formal complaint. Their Belize City airport staff 'picks on' US Green Card Holders - big mistake? They took a look at my complexion and assumed I was one too. Normally they go after TWO green card holders and shake them down for a few thousand.

This time they picked one Green Card Holder from Italy JUST married to his American Wife - and whose wife's job title at a major telecom is Import, Export, Hazardous Materials, and Freight Controls U.S. Departments of Treasury, Commerce, and Homeland Security.

For shizzle - they're BUSTED! Wait for something from CBP in the next few months on this investigation.
