Now THAT’s a helluva way to screw over the tourism industry in Europe…. And will Frump up his tariffs for Europe? Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!
Unfortunately many, if not most, tourists & travelers will just go along to get along because “that’s just what you have to do if you want to travel”. I’ve heard it SO many times before. I know people who were vehemently against getting the “covid” jab (and flu jabs) but then as soon as it was over & they wanted to travel they went & got shot up with whatever other jabs were required just so they could do so (not to mention getting full body-scanned, etc, etc).
I hear the old “that’s just what you’ve got to do” more & more for just about everything these days. For example I’m certainly the only person I know who still uses cash for pretty much everything & pretty much everywhere I go now shopkeepers punch the amount of my purchase into the eftpos machine waiting for my card or phone before I even have time to say I’m paying by cash.
I remain optimistic that many people around me still have an inkling that all this stuff is ultimately not good but just see so many of them complying with the enslavement systems designed to chip away & eventually get them to hand over their last shred of personal power. I do wish more of those people would draw a line in the sand & say “NO MORE!” once they reach it. I guess a little bit of that optimism for most of us has always been rooted in the fact that in putting our thoughts out there in print someone might read it & be encouraged 🙂
“The goal is to enhance security and speed up border crossings”
Bahahahahahahaha!!!! ROLMFAO!!!
Yea keep telling yourself that. Whatever helps you sleep at night.
Good thing I already had my trip to Greece a few months ago.
And by the way when I was there, it was an even smoother, much, MUCH faster screening process and less hassle and less invasive than here in the US and I never felt more free and safe. It was a breath of fresh air!
However, as soon as I landed back in the US, it was Nazi Germany screening again.
So if you’re using that “enhance security and speed up border crossings” excuse, then I don’t know what the F$&K you’re talking about because that makes zero sense to me whatsoever.
So basically to me it seems that because the US started biometrics and facial recognition at airports, the EU has to copy and respond in kind….under the guise of “enhance security and speed up border crossings”.
How about going back to normal? Get rid of all this unnecessary high tech mumbo jumbo, do simple checks and enforce the damn law!!!!
All of this, ALL OF THIS is completely illegal, inhumane, unnecessary and insane!
It’s got nothing to do with efficiency and EVERYTHING to do with CONTROL!!!
I pay cash where ever I go and sometimes have issues because of it
