Musical Border Crossing

[Tim Jaques]

Yes, I knew that about the destination.  Even if you are just going for a drive, always say you are going somewhere specific.  This is what I meant about the little boxes.  The little box they want contains the name of a destination.  I've even argued with them because I couldn't remember the name of a bar I was going to, even though I could tell them exactly where it was.  Of course, I always have a destination, not being one just to drive around the countryside randomly.

It does not seem to have occurred to them that hippies and terrorists can have specific destinations too.  You will remember that the 9-11 terrorists were legally in the country and had all their paperwork in order.  They arrived with visas, a destination and a plan, thus meeting the requirements.  And thus those who can't look outside their little boxes and profiling are deceived by those who can play to their rigid requirements.
