That's why the California Highway Patrol turns off all the flashy
lights after pulling someone over. A 'random' car parked on the
shoulder is less of a target then one with the flashy lights going.

Um, so who interviews and clears the customs agent?

Another customs agent! But who interviews HIM? Yet another one!

You can't fool me! It's custom agents all the way down!

No way there is any customs agents of any kind on AF1 so they can clear
the President back into the country.



I doubt it is for the President or even his staff. They would all be
carrying diplomatic passports anyway.



I thought a citizen of the United States, Presidents included, had to abide
by the LAWS of the United States.

I thought a diplomatic passport permits the citizens of OTHER countries in
certain circumstances to be EXEMPT from the laws of the United States (and
a US citizen's diplomatic passport equals the same privilege in those other
countries).

But a US citizen in the US equals US Laws... all of them. Is that not
correct???

The on-board agent would be interviewed upon arrival, by a US-based agent
who was not out of the country and therefore would himself not have to be
interviewed.

Tell that to the President of the United States.

I thought so too, until the present adminstration.

And now that I think of it.... does not the diplomatic-immunity-from-customs
only extend to the so-called "diplomatic pouch" and that other luggage can
still be subject to inspection, even for those on a "diplomatic passport"???

So prior to the present administration you were unaware that Presidents did
not abide by the LAWS of the United States?
