The border search exception allows searches and seizures at international ports of entry without a warrant or probable cause. The Obama Administration widened this to include all areas within 100 miles of any U.S. border. This means that the expectation of privacy by those living in these areas is less than those living in interior areas of the U.S.. The Supreme Court has confirmed that there is no First Amendment exception to the border search doctrine. The ACLU has filed suit, stating this is in violation of the Fourth Amendment. Short version to the story is they lost their lawsuit.http://www.gopusa.com/theloft/2014/04/17/are-you-living-in-a-constitution-free-zone/

I don't get it. Seriously, I'm not being facetious. I simply don't get it. What are they looking for? Illegal aliens are welcome, aren't they? The President punishes anyone or any jurisdiction that attempts to enforce the immigration laws that he refuses to enforce, doesn't he? So, what's the point of illegal searches and seizures? Is there some other laws they're attempting to enforce that have nothing to do with border control or immigration, laws that somehow apply to border regions but have nothing to do with borders? Like I said. I don't get it...

Try living in Tucson. There are just as many license plates from Mexico as there are American. Drugs, we got them. Human trafficing? We got them. Bodies raped and dumped in all the wadis? We have them too. When I went down to Tombstone a few weeks ago I went through one of these border search traffic control points and no anal cavity search. No being pulled out of my car and getting shot, and the agents treated me with complete respect. The rule of driving around here is that you NEVER make eye contact with a crowded vehicle full of military aged males with Mexican plates. Never use your horn, or get out of the car EVER if you are clipped and you are on the back roads. Never get out of your car if there is more than one person within 2 vehicles length of your ride. These boneheads steal your car using your own keys and by the time you find a cop they are long gone. Car jackings are up a brazillion percent since these turds are switching vehicles to stay ahead of the federalis. Welcome to the new America. I'm sick and tired of living like a hostage in my own country and fearing that my life worth is based on the needs of some illegal felon needing my resources. It is like being in combat again. If you try to raise any awareness of your concerns you have huge groups of people screaming that you are a racist.
