I don't see how that's true because this law explicitly mentions 100 miles, three times.

> The term reasonable distance, as used in section 287(a) (3) of the Act, means within 100 air miles from any external boundary of the United States
Surely I must be missing something?
- tptacek 1y agoAt this point you're arguing with your own sources. You're going to need to take it up with them, not me.
- majorchord 1y agoI have to agree with parent, the quoted law very much establishes a 100 mile zone, as they said... and I still see zero evidence of it being "a myth". Plus you seem to be moving the goalposts and not accepting that.
- tptacek 1y agoI suggest you read the parent commenter's law review cite, which explains all these issues in detail. Or you can just go to ACLU's big page on this.
