Ah, so you right wingers think that we should weaken security on the borders and make sure border patrol have to get a warrant before doing any form of searches with anyone they think might have recently crossed the border?
I can't speak for anyone else, but yes, they must get a warrant before searching a person. These checkpoints on US soil are illegal and if you refuse, they will back down.
I don't have to prove that I am a citizen if I'm driving down the road and obeying all traffic laws.
Out of control DHS again. We have given so much power to the federal government that they can essentially do whatever they want with no accountability.
==================
The incident began on June 10 at 6:16am when numerous armed SWAT team members, accompanied by a helicopter overhead, arrived in an armored vehicle at the couple’s address before smashing in the door and deafening their pet cat with flash bang smoke grenades.
“They busted in like I was a terrorist or something,” Edwards told the Tea Party News Network, adding, “[An officer] demanded that I drop the towel I was covering my naked body with before snatching it off me physically and throwing me to the ground.”
Having been previously employed by the federal agency herself, Edwards noted that some of the men were DHS agents, although when quizzed as to who they were and why they were conducting the raid, the men only responded by saying that they were “police,” while calling Edwards “stupid” and “retarded” for asking the question.
“While I lay naked, I was cuffed so tightly I could not feel my hands. For no reason, at gunpoint,” Edwards said. “[Agents] refused to cover me, no matter how many times I asked.”
According to Edwards’ boyfriend, one of the agents then proceeded to ogle his naked girlfriend up and down like a piece of candy.
“They spent about 2 hours trashing my house, even smashing clear glass shower doors and a vintage statue,” writes Edwards on her YouTube channel. “My boyfriend, who is asthmatic, started having trouble breathing due to the lingering smoke created by the flash bang grenade.”

That is good to hear, people who are Hispanic origins shouldn't have to prove they are a citizen either because that violates their American rights as well.
You say that as if it is the wrong thing to do....One should always check the source first before giving any article credibility....This messenger is loony toons central, but I see the Alex Jones worshipers are the same folks that are denying climate change....Now I know where their misinformation comes from.

I totally agree. If you are in this country obeying the laws, LE has no right to stop you and force you to prove you are a citizen regardless of your skin color.
