US Immigration

What are the chances, when trying to enter the USA, that your fingerprints are, say, 99% identical with the grandmother of a suspected terrorist sympathiser and you then have the unenviable task of proving - possibly with a bag on your head - that you are not and never have been the grandmother of a suspected terrorist sympathiser?

Happens to me almost every time I go there, but each time it is a different grandmother which is the weird part.

Isn't the onus of proof with the authorities legally you are innocent until they can prove otherwise.

[corganiser]

Maybe but they'd lock you up in Guantanamo while they go about proving your guilt.

Just how unique are fingerprints?
