[Leica] Watch out for Feds

Well, even those Indians used to traveling to the USA, like me, have
serious second thoughts about going anywhere but the big cities. The logic,
is why take the chance? If 25-30% of a population are racist and ignorant
enough to shout "Send Them Back", or whatever, encouraged by the President
of the day, the chances of them being emboldened to attack a person who's
skin colour does not match their stereotype gets higher. There are many
better and safer places to travel to!

Cheers
