I certainly don't go out of my way to cause trouble or draw attention to myself. I refuse to live in fear and will certainly speak up if I feel my rights are being stepped on. Sure they have a job to do and I appreciate their presence, in most cases. I still don't think they should have more authority than what the Constitution intended, at least where citizens are concerned. The main reason for the fourth amendment was to prevent federal government from taking the liberties with unlawful search and seizure. So on that point I'd disagree. If anything these guys should have less authority than local cops and shouldn't have the right to carry out such searches without probable cause. The more people are afraid to speak out the more their rights will be infringed upon.
