Two years a go my son went into canada from Washington State. He had a fight with his girlfriend when they wer teenagers 15 years ago.
The customs agent said, "That's kids stuff, go ahead."
Last year he went in above Great Falls and the customs agent said ,'Well, I see you had a domestic violence violation about 15 years ago."
My son said, "Yeah, she hit me and scratched my face and I just was holding her arms and she ended up getting scratched a little, by accident." "They arrested me."

The agent said, "Well , If you give me 200$ good faith money, I'll let you through."
My son said, "I have a job in Alaska and I don't have that money to spare." So he had to drive clear back to Montana, he was not happy...
So, I guess its up to the particular agent. Seems like this one wanted a little bribe to let my son through. He said the next time he will put his truck on the ferry in Seattle and go up that way..
Strange world we live in.
