Opinion: Overcoming Airport Fear with “South Park”

As someone who recently traveled internationally, I understand the anxiety and uncertainty that can come with passing through customs. The airport can be a nerve-wracking place, but it’s also where shows like “South Park” come to the rescue.

On a recent trip to Canada, I had some concerns about re-entering the US, but I was pleasantly surprised by how smoothly things went. A quick passport check and I was on my way, thanks to my birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment.

The fear of being detained at the border is real, especially given recent cases of wrongful deportation and detention at airports. The unpredictability of our current political climate can make travel nerve-wracking, but it’s important to remember our rights.

It’s unfortunate that we live in a time when carrying proof of citizenship is a necessity, but it’s a reality for many. Recent incidents of individuals being held by ICE after traveling abroad highlight the importance of understanding our rights and standing up for what’s just.

In times like these, it’s essential to stay informed and aware of our rights as travelers. While the current political climate can be intimidating, knowing our rights and being prepared can make all the difference. Let’s stay informed, stay vigilant, and continue to stand up for what’s right.
