This has been settled law for 200+ years.
It is simply this layman’s mistaken belief that the Constitution provided freedoms and guarantees that it does not.
The protections of the Constutution are not limitless or necessarily what everyone wants them to be. They guarantee certains rights and liberties, but not what this man wanted.
So what we have is that the guy that makes sure that my hedges are not more than four feet tall has more latitude to accomplish his job than the FBI agent has to protect me from terrorists.
