At the Federal Court House here in Pittsburgh, there is a handsome bronze plaque on the wall containing the Bill of Rights.

This is right next to the door where you are lined up to empty your pockets and get patted down and wanded (and who knows what else) before entry.

I’d LOL if it didn’t want to make me CRY.

I think metal detectors in certain public buildings might be appropriate. NOT xrays that reveal your body in graphic detail, and NO frisking or pat downs. That is an invasion of privacy and treats citizens like criminals being arrested. Those bother me quite a bit, but nothing like the idea of people being stopped and frisked on the street, and having their bags and cases inspected. How has that possibly been ruled legal?
