Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
You think it's unreasonable for the police to search backpacks of subway riders? So I guess you think it's unreasonable that someone might explode a backpack full of explosives in a subway car?
Gimme a break....
Just curious what is unreasonable about the police searching randomly for someone carrying a weapon that intends to hurt someone. It's plain common sense.
For those that want no searchs anywhere you need to get your heads out of your butts. Although these searches won't stop all terrorists events, they will stop or deter some.
The reality of terrorism is that it's happening to us and our allies around the globe. We need to secure our borders by putting US troops on them in patrols. Screw Mexico and Canada, it's our country and we need to protect it.
They can visit or immigrate like they're supposed to...legally.
Then we need to deport all of the students that are here on expired visas. No hearings necessary, just can be depoted forthwith, as they are here illegally..send them home.
We need to know who lives in our communities, our neighborhoods and when we as citizens see anything that just doesn't look right, discuss it and call it in. Nope we don't need the Hitler Youth, that crap, we need a whole lot of common sense and plain old patriotism.
We are in this together folks like it or not, so we need to quit arguing and pull together and put a stop to it.
It's way past time to contact the elected folks in mass and tell them fix it or get out. You can't tell me the FBI and CIA and NSA and all those agencies don't have a handle on who's who in the bad guy world. Fix it. Period and quit screwing around.
OK now what else needs fixing, I'll have an answer for that too.
