Recently I took a trip to Colombia, South America.  During this trip I observed some interesting things with airport security.

Colombia is only really concerned with drugs.  When entering the country I was barely searched by their version of TSA and Customs.  The gentleman working the xray machine did not even watch it as my bags went through and instead was texting on his blackberry.  I watched him for about 15 minutes and he never once looked up at the screen.

Leaving the country they searched and/or my carry on 4 times. Mostly xray and human searches.  One lady who was suppose to use the wand barely grazed me with it while talking to a coworker and gossiping but 15 feet later someone throughly went through my laptop case looking for drugs.  This brings me to my theory that they were more concerned with drugs than anything else.

JFK aiport immigrations check – herm. That is really my thought on that matter. I found a way to bypass the immigration check when coming in from an overseas flight.  There is a design flaw in the building and process which allows this to be possible. I won’t post here what I found, but those that follow me other places knows the “secret”.
