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.
A random search means you have absolutely no reason to believe the citizen being detained has committed a crime. This is the very definition of unreasonable.
Its also incredibly ineffective. Do you think the Israelis primarily rely upon random detection of terrorists?
For those that want no searchs anywhere you need to get your heads out of your butts.
Look, if you want to repeal the 4th amendment, fine, there are ways to legally do so.
We need to secure our borders by putting US troops on them in patrols.
Never happen. The CongressCritters are counting on immigration to prevent our population and socialist ponzi schemes from collapsing.
ou 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.
Last time I checked the FBI had 3 opportunities to stop the 1st WTC bombing and botched every one of them.
I'll tell you what's unreasonable about it. It's unreasonable to have these security measures put in place by a "police force" that operates according to its own rules and regulations, and operates outside many of the laws that ordinary citizens are required to obey.
One of the interesting aspects of the U.S. Constitution is that the phrase "law enforcement" is nowhere to be found in the entire document. At the time the Consitution was written there was no such thing as a "police department" as we now understand the concept. Through most of this nation's history, "law enforcement" was seen as a mechanism for ensuring the orderly prosecution of criminals rather than as a mechanism for protecting the public. A sheriff on the frontier, for example, was not there to protect law-abiding citizens from criminal -- he was there to protect the accused criminal from the law-abiding citizen by ensuring that the accused criminal was given a fair trial in a court of law instead of facing "frontier justice" or other acts of retribution outside the law. With the right to keep and bear arms enshrined in the Second Amendment, the notion that there was any need for government to provide protection on a daily basis for each and every U.S. citizen would have been looked upon as childish idiocy.
Because by definition, a random search is a fishing expedition.
