A delay or temporary detainment without charges until one is cleared of any wrong doing after becoming suspect isn't an infringement on Constitutional rights.
Put yourself in the shoes of law enforcement and airport police and safety officials. Do you want international money launderers, drug dealers, arms dealers, and terrorists caught? I do.
This guy's just grumpy. If you don't want to wake the tiger...don't step on it's tail.
A delay or temporary detainment without charges until one is cleared of any wrong doing after becoming suspect when one has done NOTHING wrong or suspicious and is actully being detained spicifically for doing something that is COMPLETLEY LAWFUL is kidnapping by federal autorities.
