I think they randomly send people and they just check your case against a dataset. One time I had been to Colombia for work and I got send to a different line with more people, and they checked our prints against CODIS. I only find out because they told me the system was down and it was going to take a bit more. They also put our luggage in some huge xray machines, I'm guessing looking for drugs and they also had dogs.

 

After that, I just realized they do a lot of random checks for security reasons, so I don't take it personally. Of course I get nervous, but I also think it's part of their work and I don't even have a traffic ticket.

Yeah I think not taking it personally is good advice. Would’ve liked to have been told where he was taking us though. Escorted us off without so much as a word.
