And the funny thing is, the people who are complaining about the US
wanting photos and fingerprints to come in are often from countries that
already insist on that for their own citizens (like Brazil).

No they are not! They are from Europe and from your "ally" the UK, where
fingerprints denote one's being a suspected criminal.

...or defending your home from violent criminals gets you put in jail...

Which does not materially affect the UK immigration and customs being
far far simpler than entering the US even now.

Oh, and defending your home is not illegal, the emphasis in the UK is
defending your *life*, and to use reasonable force (where reasonable
force does *not*include waiting for burglars with an illegally held
shorgun, then shooting one of them in the back).
