Locked out of the USA

Hossein (Hoder) Derakshan, an active and insightful blogger originally from Iran but living now in Toronto, has posted his Goodbye to America. The Border Patrol googled his blog, talked to him at length, and evidently decided that he was attempting to take up residence in NYC. They won't let him come back for at least six months.

Now the result is that, apparently, I can't visit the States at least for six months and even after that I should prove I'm established enough in Canada. I also have to explain why I failed to register my departure when the bus driver didn't stop while crossing the US border to Canada....It's sad to see America is not the land of the free anymore.
