Before the Patriot Act
was passed, you would simply have been arrested and charged with
some minor federal offense.

And I'm arguing that even THAT shouldn't happen, Patriot Act or no. Since
when is getting off a plane which has landed where you're headed such a huge
offense? If so, this country went to hell in a handbasket LONG before the
Patriot Act.
