If only Americans were as officious about people carrying guns into their schools and machine-gunning kids in the corridors. Still, we know for many Yanks "hey, that's life"
Not so much bemoaning the passenger in question (though that too) as bemoaning those who can not see that "an apple" can be a serious threat to agriculture, that deliberately misleading an appointed official "'cause it's just one apple" is wrong or just for being supercilious.
