I used to get "randomly" searched every time I fly in the US until I was sent to the side room for more extensive search and interview.
After that I never got randomly searched anymore whenever I go through the airport.
I think once they know everything and judged that I'm not going to be a problem, I stopped getting flagged.
From the news, this time feels a bit different.
Unfortunately I'll avoid crossing the border until things settle down in a few years. I don't want to get whisked away by ICE for looking at someone funny
