There goes the NHL season, and the 2026 World Cup, and the last shred of positive image this country had in the eyes of others in the world...

It's for visas - but don't let that stop you from setting your hair on fire.

Tourists don't need a visa?

Must be nice to be so ignorant.

It's what makes you such a good fascist.

You don't need a visa to go on vacation in the USA. Visas depend on where you're from and how long you want to stay.

How much of a fine might Henry face?

New Riders Of The Purple Sage - Henry (1971)

Lyrics excerpt ...

genius.com

...
[Verse 1]
Every year along about this time it all goes dry
Nothing 'round for love or money that'll get you high
Henry got pissed off and said he'd run to Mexico
To see if he could come back holding twenty keys of gold
Now the road to Acapulco is very hard indeed
And it isn't any better if you haven't any weed
Henry's driving hard and straight on twisty mountain roads
Fifty people waiting back at home for Henry's load

[Chorus]
And now he's rolling down the mountain, going fast, fast, fast
And if he blows it, this one's gonna be his last
Run to Acapulco to turn the golden keys
Henry, keep your brakes on for this corner if you please

[Verse 2]
Henry got to Mexico and turned his truck around
He's talking with the man who has it growing from the ground
Henry tasted, he got wasted, couldn't even see
How he's gonna drive like that is not too clear to me
...

@#9 ... You don't need a visa to go on vacation in the USA. Visas depend on where you're from and how long you want to stay. ...

So your current alias seems to contradict itself in the same paragraph.

If someone, as your current alias states does not need a visa to go on vacation in the USA, then why, in the next sentence, say, Visas depend on where you're from and how long you want to stay?
