To my knowledge, it's ONLY the U.S. that finger-prints foreigners. Jacques is Dutch, and all he has to do to avoid "a world of hurt" is to not come to the U.S.

Japan and the USA, I'm pretty sure.

And this system would only catch nationals of the country in question being fingerprinted upon re-entering that country.

This woman snuck back in a few times after being deported by using "special tape." I really wonder how special the tape is. On the other hand:

846 foreign nationals were refused entry

So, I doubt they will ever get rid of the program.

There's some blister plasters that are very thin and transparent.

Herpes plasters for around the mouth are quite hard to spot (though with a picture as blurry as in this article you would expect them to be): http://www.primped.com.au/blogs/zoes-blog/if-you-get-cold-so...

I get fingerprinted all the time and I'm not American. Maybe I just look shifty.

There where always plans to start finger-printing foreigners, though nothing has been done to this day.

As far as I know, there's not a single country in South America that finger-prints tourists. I believe Brazil does finger print US citizens though, but that was only after the US started finger printing them.

Probably because I'm 6'3 and don't fit well into economy class sea-

oh, the other Jacques.
