European Travelers May Be Fingerprinted

Did you know that Europeans visiting the US on a visa must be fingerprinted upon entry into the country?  Payback seems imminent.  The EU plus a couple non-EU countries are talking about implementing a similar policy.  Read more here.  My favorite bit: “‘It’s boys with toys. They want to have the toys the Americans have,’ Gus Hosein of the group Privacy International told Reuters.”  *rolling eyes*  Yes, I’m sure the Europeans just want to play with fingerprinting machines; the Europeans are never concerned with security.  (JIC you were wondering, I was holding a sarcasm sign.)
