The article gives me anxiety. It gives me anxiety that people can be held at our borders for hours and sometimes days (in my country non the less). All because some junior border officer did not understand the visa type well enough. How can they not even apologize? How can they not even acknowledge these types of errors.

Will they do this to us when we travel abroad on a tourist visa?

These articles should have been written a decade ago. The media is being honest all of a sudden now that they don't like the government. These aren't new happenings.

Well, a lot of US people actually like it that foreigners are given a "special treatment". As I heard some respond to situations like this: Entering the United States is a privilege and not a right.

Will other countries begin to reciprocate? Will other countries/institutions begin demanding compensation for wrongful detention/deportations?

Perhaps my biggest concern is this: How long until this pushes someone over the edge? It's precisely this kind of persistent harassment that can convince an angry, disaffected young man that, yes, the system really is rigged against him.

We shouldn't. A trait of civilized society is that it doesn't reciprocates on the barbarians with their methods.

At least Brazil did.
