If you more read carefully you'll see I never suggested that they do. I'm saying that a alien with no existing legal status in the US has no legal rights under US law nor do they have any constitutional protections until they're admitted.

Claiming they have fourth amendment protections from a search at the border by customs is non sense. They don't have any of those protections.

The sad reality is that citizens don't have most of those either.

Yes, I've read your remarks, and the ones you responded to. I don't think anyone made that particular claim.
