[Luis Gonzalez]

If I tell you that you are not allowed to bring porn to your place of work, and you sneak porn in, then claim that I have no right to search you because I want to make sure that you're not bringing porn into the workplace, you are claiming the right to smuggle; A.K.A. illicitly ringing something banned into the workplace.
