Woman held in shackles at JFK for overstaying visa {Gadling}
Feb 22nd 2008 5:27PM You're all arguing about the wrong thing. Whether she should have been stopped or not is not the issue. The issue is a country that considers itself to be some paragon of virtue using tactics you'd expect to see in communist China. If she should not be entering the country, simply book her on the next flight home. Allow her to call her relatives. Treat her with dignity. Allow her to explain her side and listen. If she must wait for a flight, put her in an airport hotel room (mandatory and at her own expense of course) but don't insult and degrade her. For doing that only degrades your entire country and government.
