I told her I would be happy to meet her on the other side of customs and sign the form there. She told me that would be a refusal to sign and she couldn't let me leave. It wasn't like I could go anywhere in between. Finally we settled on adding extra time to the alotted window, but man what a fiasco

This was one of the comments left on that news site... i think it sums it up:
In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed or birthplace or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American and nothing but an American.
There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also isn't an American at all.
We have room for but one flag, the American Flag...
We have room for but one language here and that is the English Language...
We have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.
