Original Note:
While harsh, some context is important: While in a foreign country, a U.S. citizen is subject to that country’s laws and regulations. Many countries don’t offer the same protections as the US. Know what’s in your bag. Ignorance of the law isn’t a defense. https://nl.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/arrest-of-a-u-s-citizen/
