1. First Amendment rights do not apply to foreign nationals.
2. There is no specific allegation of infringement to rights of citizens.
The court ruled they don't apply to foreign nationals prior to arrival in the United States. Once foreign nationals are in the United States first amendment rights do apply.
I know we are provided context through this thread but it could have been much accurately written while still being concise.
I would not have rights even at the port of entry, or within 100 miles of international border.
I could have also pointed out that he was not fully correct because visa applications are also completed within the United States. The judge in the case even agreed that there were first amendment issues regarding those completing applications within the US but in the case of immigration deference should be given to immigration requirements.
Like I mentioned, you do not have rights until you have cleared immigration at the port of entry within the US, regardless of visa status.
Also, 9/11 anniversary was couple of days ago, and we all know how the rights of so many Muslims lawfully living in the US were thrown out of the window merely 20 years ago.
No, you would once admitted to the US.

If an agent asks you for documents, what you need to provide differs depending on your immigration status. U.S. citizens do not have to carry proof of citizenship on their person if they are in the United States. If you have valid immigration documents and are over the age of 18, the law does require you to carry those documents on you. If you are asked by an immigration agent to produce them, it is advisable to show the documents to the agent or you risk being arrested. If you are an immigrant without documents, you can decline the officer’s request. An agent may likely ask you more questions if you decline a request. No matter what category you fall into, never provide false documents to immigration officials.
This seems in stark opposition to Jefferson's earlier writing. The rights laid out in your constitution are not granted by the constitution, but acknowledged in it.
B. While there are inalienable rights, one must answer whether (temporary) immigration is one of those rights.
Lie and they find out and you're basically fucked. :')
Would hackernews commentary accounts require disclosement?
(Did the average age on HN go down recently?)
No need to be overly snarky.
I think they have relented on that sort of intrusion, but then again, I am sure that there are plenty of background check services that can easily penetrate and scrape most social media accounts for anything and everything a prospective employer (or stalker or abuser or LEO) would want to know, for a small price.
