I don't know what happens in other states with international 
borders, but here in San Diego County, the U.S. Border Patrol 
maintains fixed location checkpoints about 50 miles north of 
the US/Mexican border.  Being of the libertarian persuasion, 
I find these internal checkpoints to be an affront to the 
U.S. Constitution and a serious infringement of the right 
to freely travel within the borders of our country.  I feel 
the same about local police checkpoints and, to some degree, 
state borderline checkpoints.  I do, however, give some slack 
to agricultural inspection stations when checking for pests 
that could (and have) wrecked economic havoc on agricultural 
concerns in my state or any other state.
