UK tourists who tweeted they would 'destroy America' banned from US | Herald Sun

TWO British tourists were barred from entering America after joking on Twitter that they were going to "destroy America" and "dig up Marilyn Monroe".

I suspect half the folks on here regularly make flippant remarks in social media outlets, this one seems bizarre to me.

(I know what you did last summer )

Wow. Just wow!

Seems odd indeed. I mean, are the FBI and US Intelligence office scouring social media to catch out these sorts of people?

God... makes you think! Though, something does seem amiss on this one...

With Twitter and Facebook, everyone knows what you did last summer.

Well I'm as flippant as they come and they still let me in.
Though these fellows were just a little thick-when asked about their on line remarks they repeated them.

Reminds me to be a good boy on FB, particularly when I'm responding to my cousins and friends in USA.

LOL! How stupid. What is this world coming to, honestly. What happened to free speech?
I don't have to fear any ill treatment by customs.. they're called coughs. Still, sucks for everyone else.

Pure arrogance from the US authorities...

I bought an Afghanistan Shemeg - the scarf you see "special forces" wearing all the time on TV to use while in bitter cold China this year, FWIW, brilliant to keep warm with...

Skype conversation with mother doing happy new year thing...

Mum "you bought guns rockets and bombs yet?"
Me "WTF?"
Mum "well you have the terrorists clothes, saw your scarf of FB"
Me "MUM! Don't say stuff like that, FFS I'm in China where every call is monitored, how the hell is anyone to know you are joking!"

Old people!

I hope the F B eye wasn't listening in. Lol
