All but USA give passport entry stamps? Y?
I'm mostly in Asia and visit a few countries round here, now and again. And every time I enter and depart any land, some Border Control Agent stamps my passport with daily stamp. But not this when i go back to my homeland, USA. At USA Border Control i have not recently gotten any kind of passport stamp. I am very curious on this q, coz how could i prove my whereabouts if i were to be snapped up by some law enforcement agency?
This is not a troll.
Does anyone here have ideas on this? thnx

Unless I use Global Entry, I've always been stamped back into the U.S. on my return home. However, in general, countries are starting to do away with this practice, at least when exiting the country. There's been occasions when I've been stamped in but not out in Europe and also in Canada and in Australia. You can always ask for one if you think you will need it later on.

Prove your whereabouts? The same way other Americans who didn't exit or enter the counter would... boarding passes, hotel bills, credit card receipts.
I don't know what you do to have this be a concern, but if you are denying something really serious your lawyer could get the info from immigration officials.

Well, mr. lcuy (IQ?) here in the lessor developed parts of the world we must accept various differences regarding what the current military junta decides to do or not, to whom and with or without reason or accountability and so on. And lots of cops, secret govt agents and Border Control Agents have a more difficult time seeing and appreciating old white american guys as anything but cash machines.
I know you think i'm evil, but no.

Who said you're evil? I know nothing about you and was just offering an answer to your question, "coz how could i prove my whereabouts if i were to be snapped up by some law enforcement agency?"
I just thought your worries funny, especially since your post seemed to indicate America is your home.

OP seems not to have ever heard of Europe. It's a place with a great many countries, and it's often the case that one's passport goes unstamped when traveling between them. This isn't just in recent years; it was also very much the case when crossing most borders (esp in western Europe) by car or train long before the Schengen agreement.
