HAHAHA Oh, if they bust this guy on breaking trade embargoes I am going to laugh the whole time they show the trial on CourtTV. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

i guess the only reason is so americans won't spend money their and help fund their government, which is understandable i guess, but sounds more plausible coming from a communist view, not democratic.

It's not illegal to travel to Cuba. However, it is illegal for an American to spend money in Cuba unless you're authorized.
