Hi,
this has now been with TRIP, City of Detroit Law Department, Wayne County, Metro Airport and now you at the Transport Security Administration.
And everyone sends me on to a new organisation, all the time.
So this I have to complain about.
This is almost like something from the movie Planet of the Apes, I think.
Noone does anything right.
So this I have to complain about.
Erik Ribsskog.

Greetings,
This email is in regards to your request dated 5/12/2023, for the following: I’ll try to explain about this again.
I was a study abroad-student at University of Sunderland in the UK, from September 2004.
The Norwegian study-loan-bank Lånekassa and my home-university (HiO IU) messed with me, so that my study-loan was a term late.
And this (and other things, including problems with University of Sunderland, who had a problem with false fire-alarms all the time etc, at the shared flat I got after they refused me to get my own flat, like a leaflet they sent me said would be an option) made my studies chaotic.
So I decided to just quit my studies (before
And I tried to find somewhere to live (and then I was going to find a job).
I tried to move to London, but I got freak-out by some Chelsea-football-hooligans, so I moved on to Amsterdam (because British Airways only had tickets to Amsterdam and Paris that day) and then to Germany.
And while I lived for a few days in a hotel in Frankfurt (in February 2005) then I thought that I needed a holiday (because I had worked a lot, in the holidays etc., before 2005, back in Norway).
(I thought I needed to relax.
And that a holiday (in the sun) would help me relax more.
So that it would be easier with the flat/job-hunt etc.
The reason I moved from Norway, was that I had overheard (at my workplace) that I was followed by some mafia, or something like that.
And I reckoned that the Norwegian police (who had harassed me when I went home from a nigh-club once, with my younger half-brother Axel, who went on a school for retards and youth-criminals (Bogstadveien spesialskole) for 9-10 years).
I reckoned that the Norwegian police wasn’t that good with mafia-stuff (since Norway is a small country, in the outskirts of Europe) so I thought it would be better to live in the UK, and then find out which department in the Norwegian police that I should contact about this).
But the flight (from Frankfurt to Mallorca) was canceled.
And I got a ticket (almost all the other passengers got new tickets before me, so I had to wait for many hours, before I got a new ticket (for a new flight) so this wore me out a bit).
And when I went to the gate of the new flight, someone (possibly a nazi) freaked me out, by standing up (and just continued to stand up).
So I thought, I need a break from Europe.
And Frankfurt airport is a huge airport, so they had a store that sold tickets to the USA there.
And the least expensive was one for Detroit with Lufthansa (this ticket only cost 500 euro, or something, and I needed a break from Europe, I thought).
I had a new passport, and I had read in Norwegian papers that with this type of passport, one didn’t need a visa for going to America.
But on the plane a Lufthansa-staff refused to give a form that all other non-US-citizens got.
So when I got off the plane in Detroit.
Then an American airport-security-guy screamed at me in German: ‘Sprechen sie deutch’.
(Even if I got the best score on the TROFFEL-test (or what it’s called) at University of Sunderland).
And I was forced to fill out a form in French.
(When I wanted a form in either English or Norwegian.
Not in German or French).
And then an African (colored) woman sent me to some police-men there (that were armed) when I tried to give her the form.
And they sent me back to Europe (they forced me buy a return-ticket with Air France) for no good reason (I’d say).
One of them (a guy who looked a bit like Burt Reynolds in the movie Smokey and the Bandit, with forearms almost like Popeye) wrote some stuff in my passport, after going through my suit-case (and interviewing me) and after xeroxing some of my ‘rat race-files’ (that I brought to Sunderland, because I had to get a place there through an organisation called ECL, or something, and I had to change some modules, to get a study-loan (from Lånekassa) so I needed my ‘document/diploma/letters of recommendation/transcript-folder’, from Norway).
So I try to register a FOIA-request.
And I want a copy of the letter that the airport-cops wrote (to do with why I wasn’t allowed entrance to the USA).
And I also want copies of my ‘rat race-files’ (that the airport-policeman copied) because I ended up on my uncle Martin’s farm in the Easter of 2005, and someone tried to kill me there in July 2005, so I fled to the UK again, and I had to leave my ‘document-folder’ at my uncle’s farm, and I’ve tried to ask my aunt Ellen (who died during the pandemic) about those files (I called her from the UK, when she lived on Martins farm, around 2008) but she wasn’t able to find my files/folder/suitcase.
I attach a scan of my old passport (where one can see the writings of the Detroit/airport-police, from February 2005).
I think one of the lines that was written in my old passport was possibly a type of reference-number.
So that number should make it possible to find my files in your archive/database, I reckon.
Thanks for the reply!
