Here’s a great idea. Cross the border, Load up your truck with paying illegals come back to the US. If you get stopped, invoke the 4th and drive on.

It wasn't a border search. It was a immigration checkpoint inside the U.S.

This guy has a 4th amendment argument which he threw away by not answering a couple questions okay'd by legal precedence and federal law.

Three issues here.

1. Should immigration checkpoints be legal.

2. Did the dog alert? By case law, a dog is not considered a 4th amendment search.

3. Level of force used to extricate an uncompliant subject from his vehicle.

All this activity leads to a lot of paper for the BP guys. It isn't something they do just for fun.

He was not crossing an international US border.
