On: British tourist detained by US authorities for 10 days over visa issue

It seems shocking from European perspective. At least they did not shot her because of resisting or something.

She might experience the same thing if she planned a "work away" trip to the EU, now that UK is not part of the EU.

No. The EU doesn't treat people like that for such a minor offense.

I suggest you read up on your country's actual visa violation punitive assessment. You'll be surprised I guarantee it if this is your "European" perspective.

The countries who can enforce their visa terms, do. And Europeans are no different, some are even worse than US treatment they're getting.

> some are even worse than US treatment they're getting.

Show one comparable story from an EU country.

I'm curious if you think there is actually none before I go any further

All good, I think your answer here is enough.
