Yes, but friend: it matters much whether the state's deployment of ethics in the selection of potential suspects are good and just. An individual's ethnic heritage and choice of religion cannot in a free society suffice for just cause in being warrantlessly surveilled. That's what warrant means.

We don't.

But the odds are good - based on hard evidence - that the absence of warrants and reasonable suspicions makes no difference whatsoever.
