They can search anything and anywhere they want at the border without a warrant or reasonable cause, can't they?

Why do Liberals insist and demand that achievers pay the way for nonachievers who are to lazy to succeed, or are just failures by their own choice?

Criminals prefer unarmed victims, dictators prefer unarmed subjects.

Why do ignorant people continue their blabbering when it only proves to others how stupid they are.

Actually, it's even worse. You no longer have any 4th amendment rights within 100 miles of any US border, or coastline. Basically, this applies to 66% of the US population. Read this before you say the Capt is off his meds:

Well, part of the "hoax" is the Media mostly failing to report that the AR-15 was NOT involved in the Sandy Hook shootings-----it apparently never left the trunk of the purps car.

Now why did much of the Media fail to report that???????? (duh, they have an agenda)

Bingo... the current lot in power and their loving media have pledged to never let a crisis fail to be exploited and used to further their conquest of our freedoms!

[*] posted on 2-10-2013 at 11:13 AM


Last year I was flying to Ensenada but was still North of the border and was instructed by SoCal approach to divert to Calexico. I landed in Calexico and was met by Homeland Security; Customs; an airplane mechanic and a govt. computer nerd. They x-rayed my plane, did the usual search and took my laptop. The computer guy didn't even have to ask me for my password and started browsing through all my files. When I asked what they were looking for, he answered "Why, are you afraid we will find something...". Then got more civil and said they are searching for any electronic money transfers.

The "current lot"??

Read about the Fourth Amendment and the Patriot Act and how they conflict. The Patriot Act was signed into law in 2001 by George Bush.

And it's true, the border search exemption to allow searches without warrants and reasonable cause extends 100 miles back from the border and coastlines.
