Yea...half of us got our cars searched, half didnt. Go figure. Guy asked to see inside my trunk when I left after I told him I wasnt bringing anything back with me, like thats wierd or something.
holy **** man, that is ridiculous. I can't believe they gave you that kind of **** over stuff that was 5-10 years ago. I would copy your senator/representative of your choice on your letter to the consulate, and say so in your letter, just for emphasis.
that sucks bro, I am sorry you had to go through so much **** just bc you were trying to be a good guy
