If there is any doubt in your mind that our government is willing to allow a mindset which is in keping with all of our fears, that of 'the end justifies the means' IRREGARDLESS of what our hallowed constitution says.... I am hereby gently notifying you that you are allowing yourself to live in a dream world.

is correct, I opine that the good governor is at best a statist and dare I say a totalitarian? I am sure he is not alone....
The quote:
Excuse me? Did I hear that right?
We understand this may infringe on civil liberties....
We understand this may infringe on civil liberties....
We understand this may infringe on civil liberties....
When one in a position of power fully understands that they are infringing on civil rights, and willfully continues on planning the comission of this act, does that not mean that this person is wilfuly and wontonly abandoning the constitution and violating federal law?
The the second 'suggestion' in the constitution will be totally ignored soon too. In fact, in my opinion, during the east coast 'sniper' shootings it was!
Enjoy your random searches people these will not be the last... Franklin's oft quoted words ring in my ears...
They that would give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
How many more stupid laws and illegal actions are we willing to allow from our elected officials under the thin disguise of 'protecting us from terrorists'. Indeed we are allowing our government to do exactly what it is that the terorists had hoped for... and more!
The saudi/persian/arab/muslim/terrorists HATE all we stand for, they HATE our religious freedoms, they HATE our freedom of speech, and they HATE our freedom to choose our own form of government. They would replace ALL of what our grandfatehrs fought for and WON in WW2 (rememebr the totalitarians named tojo and hitler who wanted the same thing) with a muslim-based theocracy if possible. In order to do that they have to break down a social structure that insures the rejection of any totalitarian theocracy. They are getting their way because the bliss-ninnies in this country are AFRAID, and the real tests and REAL terror has not yet even begun on a wide scale YET.
While I doubt the muslims would achieve their own zealous goals, what is instead being achieved is a totalitarian state... dare I say a police state. Though it will not turn out their way in the end, they ARE getting what they want. The destruction of the United States society as we know it.
I'll close my diatribe with a quote from Lincoln. As true today, even moreso than it was when he said it.

New Jersey Gov. James E. McGreevey warned revelers headed to New York City to expect long delays at bridges and tunnels - and to prepare for random stops and searches.
"We understand this may infringe on civil liberties but most of all we have a responsibility to keep our families safe," he told CNN.

"Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step over the ocean,
and crush us at a blow? Never! -- All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa
combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their
military chest; with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take
a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a
Thousand years. At what point, then, is the approach of danger to be
expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It
cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be
its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all
time, or die by suicide."
