Christian musicians blocked by Homeland Security?
What should have been a simple process turned into two hours of grueling interrogations. The customs agent was not convinced that we were coming into the United States with missionary type work due to our expense arrangement with the churches. He questioned me, then my wife separately, then me again. I was fingerprinted, my photo taken, and finally refused entry. It was three in the morning by the time we headed back to the nearest Canadian town, our seven kids and a trailer full of sound equipment in tow.
I guess the crossing had blocked some Islamicist coming in to give a talk and had to "justify" it by stopping Mark Mallet...
