Using data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau, the ACLU has determined that nearly 2/3 of the entire US population (197.4 million people) live within 100 miles of the US land and coastal borders.
The government is assuming extraordinary powers to stop and search individuals within this zone. This is not just about the border: This " Constitution-Free Zone" includes most of the nation's largest metropolitan areas.
All of the orange areas on this map are the constitution-free zone of the US. You can be stopped by Homeland Security for any reason within this zone, searched, questioned, and even body-cavity-searched without any recourse.
Feeling all warm and snugly about now?

OH, and you think it can't happen to YOU?
