The fourth amendment grants protections from unjust search and seizure.

Stopping someone for no crime to check paperwork is assuming they are guilty until proven innocent.

This happens every day in every airport. Not arguing with you but this is really the same thing yet one has to show id, ticket and subject themselves to random searches.

How is a checkpoint a search or a seizure?

It only becomes a search or seizure if you are apparently breaking a law by not having a valid license or registration for driving, which is a state right, not a right granted by the constitution. Therefore it is subject to all rules and regulations set forth by that state, one of which is checkpoints.

Deal with it.
