“The officers boarded the train with a drug dog and proceeded to guide the dog through the train, where he would sniff around everyone’s seats. I suppose the dog could smell drugs from a distance because everyone’s luggage was in the overhead container. Interestingly, they took the dog into the empty bathrooms, in case, I suppose, people had hidden their drugs there rather than keep them in their suitcases. Of course, the officials had the serious, grave looks on their faces that characterize people with these types of jobs. All I could think as I watched them was how sad and pathetic their lives were. Think about it: What possible good were these people doing in life?”
