SPOT-A-NATIONALIST: Passionate about protecting the Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution; has no idea it doesn't apply to the States.

@DwayneStovall State constitutions have their own protections of rights, but do you want state police to search you without a warrant?

@jdruva41 State Bills of Rights should mean something, and the federal government already doesn't need a warrant.

@DwayneStovall What do you mean they don't need a warrant? If the 4th Amendment applies to anyone, it applies to the feds.

@jdruva41 Read the patriot act or go to the airport. They don't need a warrant. the 4th amendment is dead.

@DwayneStovall In practical terms, yes. I have a feeling that state bills of rights would also be trampled upon in the "war on terror."

@jdruva41 Practical terms? What does that even mean? Are you saying they should or shouldn't be trampled on.

@DwayneStovall I mean the Amendment as written should deter unreasonable searches. Implied consent (as at airports) renders it ineffective.
