Most people have pic ids with their licenses and can be id by state license data base.

Not enough, especially in light of all the pat downs, thefts and mistreatment of travelers.

Touchdown! First time I've agreed with you all night. Maybe we should stop communicating right now, and bask in this warm light before we disag...

Far worse than anything I've read about police roadblocks.

Ohhh. While I agree that there are degrees of offense that can be taken from the various forms of mistreatment being visited on us by Uncle Sam, to me any intrusion upon our Constitutionally enumerated rights is a fatal one. I may take more offense, and be more shocked, watching a 4 year old girl getting manhandled at an airport, but an old lady unjustly detained, even for a moment, at a police checkpoint is just as wrong Constitutionally. In my opinion, anyway.

Why haven't the courts acted to restrain the TSA?

Great question! Why did the court uphold Obamacare? There's another one! Something is rotten in Denmark.

If you’d read the thread you’d see my answer.

The reason off duty police officers were hired to do this job was because motorists would NOT stop for a citizen with a sign. You know it and I know it. The authority of the police was hijacked. If I was a citizen in that state I would sue the police department.

>> DO YOU consider a constitutionalist a statist ?

The US Constitution and Bill of Rights are not precepts for statism.

Police State, yes. They are testing the waters to see if we're ready for
the big jump into the ovens. Checking the attitude of Americans to see
how far they can reach. And btw, saying no was also part of the study.

Yuh know, I’m not really interested in a back and forth and long drawn out discussions of particulars.

If you want to lighten up and find at least one friend on thus thread that’d be great.

Otherwise batting practice continues.

Well I've witnessed orange vested college students stopping vehicles for tourism questionaires. Maybe you need to get out more. Read the thread and try to catch up.

If you read the thread you'll find there are some other rational posters here. I still would like to know what you found offensive in my response to your linked post.

I often get bitch slapped for stating my Conservative Libertarianism.

Well, Libertarians lost me with the open borders and free trade stance.

Since this thread has been hijacked it will be MUCH harder to ask this particular question:

After everything we have heard about this gigantic database that has ALL of OUR information in it, does the government already have most of our DNA already, through normal doctor/hospital procedures? (Blood draws, etc.) AND....Is this just another way of getting the rest of our DNA?

Hooking minors on drugs, killing nascent humans, and homo marriage laws are not liberty oriented tenets.

The difference is, you are not compelled by law to stop your travels for them. That's the point of this whole conversation. This checkpoint was operated by the police. Sure, you could purportedly decline to participate, but by that point you had already been stopped and spoken to by law enforcement.

See, anything is possible when people can have a rational discussion. Most of the time people are stating similar opinions but in different words and phrases. Now I'm out of here to take my dog for a well deserved walk.
