    My entry to China was really easy. I’m very concerned about my return trip to the US. I have to come back at my home and family are there… doors anyone know if I’m denied entity if I can just book and flight and leave? Why do I need to have the government deport off in rolling to go on my own?

      The cruelty is the point, so I imagine you would be detained and forcibly removed. They would make it as miserable for you as possible.
