Updated U.S. Customs and Border Protection Questionnaire
Briefly

The article presents a satirical take on U.S. Customs and Border Protection's practices, emphasizing an ironic survey for re-entering citizens. It points out the agency's contradictory stance on public safety and national security while mocking the suppression of personal freedoms and constitutional rights. Through humor, it highlights the absurdities inherent in the government’s approach, suggesting that feedback from citizens is unwelcome unless it conforms to a highly restrictive narrative. The tone serves as a harsh critique of contemporary policies and their effects on individual liberties.
As part of our continuing efforts to insure public safety, protect national security, and suppress the free flow of ideas, which are now pretty much illegal.
We at U.S. Customs and Border Protection kindly ask that you fill out the following survey upon re-entry into the Fatherland.
If you have any suggestions for how we can improve-aside from not violating the First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Amendments, and pretty much the rest of the Constitution-please keep them to yourself.
