Category Image Passports needed?


There's a new rule that American citizens need a passport to return to the country if they do so by airplane.

I can't wait to see that one challenged in court. If someone were to return to the US without a passport, they should fully expect to return. What would the government do, leave them on the plane, or in customs forever? I suspect they would eventually be allowed to return, but only after they harrass and intimidate and ruin their day.

It's an absurd rule with no purpose except to make people feel like they're doing something against terrorism.
