Did you even read what I posted? Here is a copy-paste for you: Thus, there is little reasoned support for the widely held no- tion that noncitizens are entitled to substantially less constitu- tional protection than citizens. While not identically situated in all respects, foreign nationals should enjoy the same constitu- tional protections for fundamental rights and liberties as United States citizens. The areas of permissible differentiation - admis- sion, expUlsion, voting, and running for federal elective office - are much narrower than the areas of presumptive equality - due process, freedom of expression, association, and religion, privacy, and the rights of the criminally accused. When we balance liberty and security, in other words, we should respect the equal dignity and basic human rights of all persons. In the wake of September 11, we have failed to follow that mandate. When we spy on foreign nationals without proba- ble cause but not citizens, selectively target foreign nationals for registration, detention, and deportation based on their ethnic and religious identities, and lock up foreign nationals in secret or without any hearings at all, we have chosen the easy way out: sacrificing their rights for our purported security. In the end, the true test of justice in a democratic society is not how it treats those with political power, but how it treats those who have no voice in the democratic process. How we treat foreign nationals, the paradigmatic other in this time of crisis, ultimately tests our own humanity.
