You would not believe. I am from Canada and when I was going to Asia for vacation through America cause flights are cheaper from there, the us custom lady was so rude. I didn't declare my stutter at the very start but when I couldn't speak I told her I have stutter and she very rudely said "yea I can see that" with a annoying face. She asked me my final destination later and I just couldn't say the word so she said hello???? I asked her can I spell it out its very difficult for me to say that word she's like no you have to say it for security reasons. I'm afraid now to go through US as it involves customs😭
