Or you can read the Constitution and the case law and realize that the 4th Amendment doesn’t apply to standing in line to get on a plane at the airport.
“Or you can read the Constitution and the case law and realize that the 4th Amendment doesnt apply to standing in line to get on a plane at the airport.”
Case law also says that women have the federally mandated right to kill babies in the womb. Just because you get some a-hole in a black robe to say it doesn’t make it true. That said, please point me to the part of the constitution allows sexual assault to be a condition of boarding an airplane.
Does it apply to standing in line at a bank? Does it apply to standing in line at the grocery store? Does it apply to standing in line at a sports arena? All of these are potential terrorist targets that have been aggressively attacked in other countries.
The U.S. constitution forbids "unreasonable" searches. You think flying on an airplane is evidence of a "reasonable" suspicion that you are a terrorist. Many of us do not.
If this were truly the case, then it would also be "reasonable" for the Government to search the homes, cars, and work places of every airline passenger. After all, the Government have already made the determination that "reasonable" suspicion of a crime is attached to being a commercial airline passenger.
I don't believe it is "reasonable" for the Government to suspect that all airline passengers are terrorists and therefore subject to invasive searches of their persons. I find the assumption that all airline passengers are terrorists to be completely "unreasonable" on its face.
