| Subject: Rights violations by statist bastards: Illegal souvenirs that could land you in trouble Sun Sep 09, 2012 12:19 am | |
| A memorable trip isn’t complete without taking home some sweet souvenirs. But you better be careful, some trinkets could land you in legal hot water.
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency says it seizes hundreds of thousands of items each year from travelers trying to take them through customs. Among the most popular seized inadmissible souvenirs are undeclared goods and counterfeit items, such as designer clothing, media, watches and purses. Footwear or leatherwear made from endangered or protected species also makes the list - as well as what the agency considers ‘consumables,’ such as herbs, meats, cheese, sausages, Cuban cigars, absinthe and medications.
