>> the border patrol agents would say come on, this is hardly a threat to your liberty. tell us where you are going. >> i answered 17 questions. i produced a military id, a drivers license and two passports. >> if it was your job to be a border guard and somebody wouldn't answer questions, wouldn't you want to detain them? >> you might want to. >> i'm suspicious because you won't answer questions? >> lack of cooperation cannot be used as a basis for reasonable suspicion. this is a person being stopped in the middle of the road who has done nothing wrong and finds himself surrounded by armed government agents with dogs. >> the border patrol would not respond to our questions about this. congressman peter king defended the agents. >> i think of border patrol as border patrol. these are inland. >> reasonable course. we do have, remember, when

people come into the country l illegal illegally, they don't stay on the border, they keep going. >> if people aren't compliant, they break a window? people have been tazstased. >> i am not aware of abuses at all. if anything, the complaints we get, there's not enough strict enforcement. >> isn't there something un-american about 100 miles from the border, american citizens having to prove they are citizens to drive to work or the grocery store? >> it's a scary world. you have to balance. >> americans have the right to drive within their own country. real freedom lies in the thinnest space that separates and american citizen from an armed member of their government. >> that thin line keeps getting thinner. authorities keep inventing new tools. >> they use microsensors and processors to navigate and track targets. coming up, drones keep

do. and if you pled with the prosecutor before getting to this stage, he wouldn't face that. >> yeah, prosecutors want to avoid time consuming trials. it persuades people to plead guilty. >> i have had grown men on a drug bust just burst out in tears, weeping. why? mandatory minimum. >> if you plead guilty, you don't get the mandatory minimum. if they say i'm not a drug trafficker, i want to tell a jury my side of the story, prosecutors drop the hammer. >> why is a prosecutor such a hard guy about it? >> go to voters and say look at my conviction rate. >> big bad john. >> president bush john won a u.s. senate seat after bragging about being tough on the bad guys. >> it's not surprising they are the only ones that defend mandatory minimums. they benefit from them. >> i work in florida.
