Sure. Are most 3rd world nations in the habit of fingerprinting all their citizens? How about facial biometrics? They do that, too?

Nope. I don't cite that to show that these screens are going to pick up a random Ecuadorean from a small village, but to show how they're going to catch someone if they're on the terror watchlist or any of the international agencies' intelligence screens.

And to illustrate that you're going to go through more of a review than, again, if you walk through customs. As dismissive as you are towards what DHS is doing, what happens at the airport pales in comparison. There's no fingerprinting, there's no days of database review. Thirty to sixty seconds of conversation, and you're done (for the most part).

There's absolutely no benefit to trying to go through the asylum process rather than just coming in on an airplane with all the other tourists and travelers.
