Though I appreciate the efforts of Ned and others, to me these restrictions
are unacceptable. I am not willing to subject to an FBI background check even
though I've never had a legal problem in my entire life. Neither can I afford
to pay a police officer $50/hour to follow me around the islands.
Regretfully, it looks like I've made my last birding trip across the CBBT.
Considering the relative threat posed by birders on the CBBT to the millions
of illegal aliens flooding across our borders on a daily basis I believe this
is little more than an ineffective attempt to pretend to be advancing homeland
security. It is about as useful as the ludicrous color-coded threat levels.
