Agents here can only detain for 'brief questioning" and "any further detention or search must be based on [the greater showing of] consent or probable cause." Once a driver indicates that he will not answer questions or consent to extend the detention or a search, then the only real option available to the agents are to quickly check for evidence of crime, such as contraband in plain view, and let him go if no evidence of crime is found.

There was this one time about 2 years ago when I drove to Kit Peak to go check out the Telescopes. I wasn't in a hurry, and no cars were behind me. So at the checkpoint I decided to have a little fun.

It is time for the ACLU to address this issue. What the "permanent temporary" interior Border Patrol (BP) checkpoints do is prove that the BP is ineffectual at/along the border. Either the BP is effective at the border, in which case the interior checkpoints are unnecessary and excessive; or the BP at the border is ineffective, in which case it either needs to be strengthened (by returning the interior BP agents to the border), or it needs to be eliminated (since BP management has been playing this weasel game for so long that the BP bargaining unit has been enervated and emasculated). If anyone with brains and determination is reading this, make this an issue; perhaps a presidential issue for 2020.

FORGET the ACLU. Their justice fighting days are way behind them. Now they just take in the donations and stash the money in off shore secret accounts.

[@goriverman]

Thank you sir, this stuff is really getting out of hand, We as a nation half to stand up against the government treating us like we have no rights and they can do what they want when they want in the name of keeping us safe

[@RDA8191]

Border Patrol is absolutely necessary on the border, however I really disagree with these interior checkpoints. I quit my employment with the Border Patrol for this reason. I just did not agree with these checkpoints constitutionally and I did not feel comfortable being deployed to them. It's very important to stand up for your rights, however, I did wish many of you who understand this, would also understand the importance of protecting your 2nd amendment rights. However you feel about firearms, you need to understand that RIGHT protects the other rights. If you give away that right, I assure you they will strip you of the rest. We've seen it all throughout history. Please understand this and educate your children. Every government moves to take away your rights. The 2nd amendment keeps them at bay

Terri Bressi is a true American patriot and a fine example of a conscience citizen. We al should strive to do the same. We should remind the government they work for us and they should fear us, nit the other way around.

I've enjoyed this guy's videos he has posted on youtube for some time now. He has responded to several of my posts. I think he's done a good job. With such an open border in the desert, why would smugglers travel along a highway that they know has a checkpoint.

[@stevejh69]

Great video, thanks for sharing. Please show us the outcome and if you need funds, start a go-fund me as I will contribute to help stop these thugs. When our elected officials will not hold these crooks in uniform accountable and bring them in line, we need too. If that means with force, then that is what we have to do.

[@oskartheme5233]

"Are you a US citizen" I'm not authorized to make that legal determination. Sorry I can't help. :)

[@missyc5627]

Every action those cops took after his arrest for questioning him, is nothing more than retaliation. This guy knows the law, he questioned them on it and it hurt their feelings. And what a bunch of low-life’s trying to get him fired….for merely asserting his rights. Wow.

[@MrVincehalloran]

Mad respect yo! True patriotism. Thank you also for the work you do in the field of astronomy. That knowledge enriches the whole world.

The Supreme court has ruled on this already Martinez-Fuerte appealed his conviction, and the Government appealed the granting of the motions to suppress in the respective prosecutions of Jiminez-Garcia and of Guillen and Medrano-Barragan. [Footnote 4] The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit consolidated the three appeals, which presented the common question whether routine stops and interrogations at checkpoints are consistent with the Fourth Amendment. [Footnote 5] The Court of Appeals held, with one judge dissenting, that these stops violated the Fourth Amendment, concluding that a stop for inquiry is constitutional only if the Border Patrol reasonably suspects the presence of illegal aliens on the basis of articulable facts. It reversed Martinez-Fuerte's conviction, and affirmed the orders to suppress in the other cases. 514 F.2d 308 (1975). We reverse and remand.

[@dlhvac1]

Good carry a copy of this it was sent back to the lower court because the ninth circuit is full of communists

[@richardgates7479]

Why carry it? Nobody has to read it. I'd just ask for what reason do you suspect that I'm not a citizen?

[@jacencade4019]

dlhvac1 yes other countries this is how the opposition acts We're "just a bunch of checkpoints" fuck "the law"

[@angelmoreno5935ify]

@constitutional Corner Where did you find this information?

[@Kacee2]

I hardly recognize the country that I grew up in. We are becoming more and more like North Korea every day.

[@bilwisss]

just like walmart, trying to get out of the store.. "can i see your receipt?"

[@JCarlosMois]

But that’s private, as soon you get in to the store you’re subject to their policies, period.

[@bilwisss]

@@JCarlosMois ORLY? you cannot be compelled to show a receipt. you own said receipt, and you own what you paid for at the moment of transaction, burden of proof falls on the accuser, being on private property changes 100% jack squat on that topic. what if, their policies was selling your kidneys? holding you over night? something non Geneva Conventions? "subject to their policies, period." my fat bottom, good sir and or ma'am.

[@bpdp379]

baashdi hobstocking the difference is I choose to not ever interact with Walmart.

[@bilwisss]

@@JCarlosMois i suggest you make contact with Walmart corporate, simply ask "if the policy to look at your receipt is it... voluntary or mandatory?" ...also it cant hurt (much) to update yourself with Walmart policy AP-09.

[@bilwisss]

@@bpdp379 that is a very valid option.

[@forcedinduction5245]

Bravo!!

[@dluvv19761]

The existence of those checkpoints are a violation

[@clintyoung8255]

Keep doing the things you do bruh. Expose those punks.

[@gregclemons3644]

all the crazy homeless guys who ramble about the government I used to think was just that...crazy..but I really see their point now 😂

[@francisd2386]

This is worse than an Iron Curtain cause it keeps moving and follows you around

[@Th3Pr0digalS0n]

its hard to believe that these checkpoints still exist. something needs to be done. these agencies are out of control

[@FollowTheJohn]

Terry….You’re a hero. I tape all of my interactions too.
