The city is saying that as a condition of riding the subway, you might be subject to a bag search. If someone doesn't consent to the search, they are free to do two things: leave their bag at home, or not ride the subway. That is not a violation of the Constitution.

I think you are wrong. If you can't ride the public subway, then maybe you can't use the public parks, or walk on the public sidewalk either. You are basically saying that it within the consitution to make one housebound if they don't agree to random searches, and I don't think it is.

Not riding the subway does not make you housebound.
