I skimmed it. One decent look and it becomes clear it's a sham.

The ACLU published a map in 2006 showing that nearly two-thirds of the American public – 197.4 million people – live within a “constitution-free zone” within 100 miles of land and coastal borders:

The ACLU explained:

■Normally under the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the American people are not generally subject to random and arbitrary stops and searches.
■The border, however, has always been an exception. There, the longstanding view is that the normal rules do not apply. For example the authorities do not need a warrant or probable cause to conduct a “routine search.”
■But what is “the border”? According to the government, it is a 100-mile wide strip that wraps around the “external boundary” of the United States.

Does this include Portland? We are less than 100 miles to the coast line.
