The suit, which will be filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, will claim that the two-week old policy violates constitutional guarantees of equal protection and prohibitions against unlawful searches and seizures, while doing almost nothing to shield the city from terrorism.

This two-week-old policy probably COULD have stopped Colin Ferguson from specifically killing five Whites and one Asian on the Long Island RR back in '93 - but, oops, yeah - we don't want to talk about ALSO helping to stop more-prevalent DOMESTIC CRIME when we can just sit back and b!tch about international terrorism… Silly me.

Having random searches of passengers in a city where law-abiding citizens are prohibited from carrying guns is just about the most useless -- and prohibitively expensive -- form of "security" I can possibly think of.

Like I said in an earlier post -- I'm on the NYCLU's side on this one, but they've got an agenda that is predicated on their infantile, delusional view of law enforcement.
