That was not at the border.....
- The Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects Americans from random and arbitrary stops and searches.
- According to the government, however, these basic constitutional principles do not apply fully at our borders. For example, at border crossings (also called "ports of entry"), federal authorities do not need a warrant or even suspicion of wrongdoing to justify conducting what courts have called a "routine search," such as searching luggage or a vehicle.
- Even in places far removed from the border, deep into the interior of the country, immigration officials enjoy broad—though not limitless—powers. Specifically, federal regulations give U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) authority to operate within 100 miles of any U.S. "external boundary."
- Many people think that border-related policies only impact people living in border towns like El Paso or San Diego. The reality is that Border Patrol's interior enforcement operations encroach deep into and across the United States, affecting the majority of Americans.
- Roughly two-thirds of the United States' population lives within the 100-mile zone—that is, within 100 miles of a U.S. land or coastal border. That's about 200 million people.
- Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont lie entirely or almost entirely within this area.
- Nine of the ten largest U.S. metropolitan areas, as determined by the 2010 Census, also fall within this zone: New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Antonio, San Diego and San José.
The regulations establishing the 100-mile border zone were adopted by the U.S. Department of Justice in 1953—without any public comments or debate. At the time, there were fewer than 1,100 Border Patrol agents nationwide; today, there are over 21,000. Federal border agents are stopping, interrogating, and searching Americans on an everyday basis with absolutely no suspicion of wrongdoing, and often in ways that our Constitution does not permit. For example, Border Patrol, according to news reports, operates approximately 170 interior checkpoints throughout the country (the actual number in operation at any given time is not publicly known). The ACLU believes that these checkpoints amount to dragnet, suspicionless stops that cannot be reconciled with Fourth Amendment protections. The Supreme Court has upheld the use of immigration checkpoints, but only insofar as the stops consist only of a brief and limited inquiry into residence status. Checkpoints cannot be primarily used for drug-search or general law enforcement efforts. In practice, however, Border Patrol agents often do not limit themselves to brief immigration inquiries and regularly conduct criminal investigations and illegal searches at checkpoints. The Border Patrol also frequently pulls over motorists in "roving patrol" stops, often without any suspicion that an immigration violation has occurred.

How many searches have you refused at the border.
She wasn't fighting.You don't have a right to fight with police LOL
Police have no right to detain you without charges.
Wrong again stupid.
You can be detained for reasonable suspicion whether that results in charges or not.
Why don't you morons learn your rights before you bitch about them being violated.
Good idea.
I just posted some.
Here's a good one:
Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
Hey stupid, that applies to unreasonable searches.
The issue of border checkpoints has already been declared constitutional.
United States v. Martinez-Fuerte
United States v. Martinez-Fuerte - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
Since 1976, that's pretty much the end of the discussion on whether border checkpoints are legal.

I think she can sue and win a nice settlement but her damages will be reduced because you have a responsibility to mitigate your losses. IOW, she should not have been so aggressive in refusing to comply with their requests.
I would almost be willing to bet that she was hoping for the kind of reaction she provoked to pay for law school. What other reason would there be for recording the whole event?
If you don't want trouble with the authorities, don't yell at them and refuse to do what they ask.
I await news of the inevitable law suit.
Fuck you, asshole!Wrong again stupid.
You can be detained for reasonable suspicion whether that results in charges or not.
Why don't you morons learn your rights before you bitch about them being violated.

You obviously believe in a police state and do not embrace American values.
--- or get tased?
Aye .... there's the rub.
Can you let go of your stupid hatred of cops for the moment and admit that you have no idea what you are talking about?
Police take control of subjects during a detention for the safety of both themselves AND the subjects. Common sense should tell everyone that it is safer for everyone if the LEOs know where everyone is and what they are doing, rather than people are just running around doing whatever they want
It's not that fucking hard to just go stand wherever a cop tells you to when you've been detained.
Once again for the slow -- "not that fucking hard" does not equate to "out of control" when the subject poses no threat whatsoever. All she did was defy an arbitrary "command" from an authority obsessed with his.
Let that sink in. Perhaps print it out and make a poultice, and apply to the cerebellum.
You may have to pull the scalp back.
Have you ever been a LEO? No? Well let me tell you, You treat ALL subjects as potential threats, because you never know which ones are. Plenty of LEOs who failed to do so have been injured by people who they dismissed as no threats.
You simply have no understanding of the subject.
Again with the " It's a hard job so they have to be ass holes" crap. They knew it was a hard job before they took it. That badge means they are a cop, not that they are God.
It's not about it being a hard job you simpleton. It's about keeping people from being hurt. That's what the commands are all about.
Once again for the slow -- "not that fucking hard" does not equate to "out of control" when the subject poses no thread whatsoever.
Let that sink in. Perhaps print it out and make a poultice, and apply to the cerebellum.
You may have to pull the scalp back.
With all the "I know my rights" videos on the net you'd think she would have learned how to do it properly.
She was combative and far from being calm.
I agree she didn't go about it well or wisely.
But she did nothing to deserve physical assault. That was proactively committed by Taser man.
Maybe,but she was being totally unreasonable and brought it on herself.
That sounds a lot like the thug who said "If the cashier would have just given me the money, I wouldn't have had to shoot him. It's his own fault."
Well except that a cop telling you "go stand over there" is a lawful order while a thief saying "give me the money" is not.
You fucking moron.

Once again for the slow -- "not that fucking hard" does not equate to "out of control" when the subject poses no threat whatsoever. All she did was defy an arbitrary "command" from an authority obsessed with his.
Let that sink in. Perhaps print it out and make a poultice, and apply to the cerebellum.
You may have to pull the scalp back.
Have you ever been a LEO? No? Well let me tell you, You treat ALL subjects as potential threats, because you never know which ones are. Plenty of LEOs who failed to do so have been injured by people who they dismissed as no threats.
You simply have no understanding of the subject.
Again with the " It's a hard job so they have to be ass holes" crap. They knew it was a hard job before they took it. That badge means they are a cop, not that they are God.
It's not about it being a hard job you simpleton. It's about keeping people from being hurt. That's what the commands are all about.
Who exactly was endangered by her standing where she was? I understand that police have to instruct people to do things for a reason sometimes, but particular order didn't have much reason. "Because I said so" is acceptable for a parent, but a cop needs a little bit more,

This is classic:
"It's about keeping people from being hurt."
"I'm going to tase you so you don't get 'hurt'. What a maroon.
