re: Simply having a New York license plate should not be probable cause for a stop.

Or you could read it yourself? Are you so lazy and uneducated that you have not read it?

And the "Steadmans cheddar" guy above who is espousing Benthamist utilitarianism on "limited rights" is the one to whom your anger should really be addressed. His philosophy is seriously suspect...

Although the Federal government has the ability to regulate interstate commerce, generally I would say Americans moving from State to State is not really commerce. For example, the federal government can shutdown the air space, but even that probably couldn't go on forever.

As far as Americans just traveling from State to State there really isn't much the federal government can really do. The federal government can regulate public rights, but not really private Rights.

The People were never gave government the ability to regulate private Rights, generally speaking.

The simple fact is, neither the State or Federal government have been given the authority by the People to infringe on one's life, liberty and pursuit to happiness. It just simply doesn't exist, now they can regulate and control public rights.

The State gave away much of their rights to border control when they joined the Union, the Federal government has some ability via the commerce clause but that has to do with commerce and is not absolute either.

American moving from New York to Texas is a private right, generally speaking, not one that is the government's business.

I would advise any State that they don't like the rules, maybe they shouldn't have given up half their sovereignty. Now, maybe the nutjobs that wanted open borders will now understand better but since they are wack jobs... probably not.

The text of the Fifth Amendment explicitly states that life and liberty can be restrained with adequate due process

Not sure what that is suppose to mean, why would someone be restrained without proof? Of course, a person from New York can be quarantined, but they must have due process. A State can't simply stop all border traffic because they don't like a license plate or the person in it.

Good, after they detain/arrest you w/out a warrant or due cause...your attorney can argue that point in court...

I'm happy with it. You yankee fricks can stew in your leftist, stacked up juices.

Limited, and yet fully vested rights enumerated within our Constitution, lol. Freedom, but quickly disposed of in "times of emergency". Sartre would be proud. Or should I say Marx.

Again, you’re ignoring the language of the constitution itself that says you can be deprived of rights with due process. I’m not saying whether these limitations are justified or wise. I am saying they exist, and are written into the constitution.

I’ll repeat the question, if right to liberty in the Fifth Amendment is absolute, how do you explain the existence of jail?

What does that have to do with anything?

I was responding to someone who questioned whether rights are absolute.

What does that have to do with anything? I mean the State has no ability to stop people with no probably cause. Can one be restrained, absolutely, but in this case.. there is no reason for the restraint.

Due process is a flexible concept that can mean different things in different situations. There is no need to have probable cause at DUI checkpoints, and yet you’re restrained. Because prior legislation is the due process. Due process can also be found in the fact that legislators gave governors and presidents executive authority in emergencies.

Leftists are complete totalitarians. This is what you are. Look how you have been unmasked and you didn't even have to burn the Reichstag to do it this time.

Gibbons v Ogden says that states have quarantine powers boss.

If anyone is curious about a law professor’s response time the “is this constitutional” question.

This is not a privilege and immunities issue. States country cities can all declare martial law in times of great stress. This clearly qualifies. Remember, health safety and welfare is a state province and this will clearly come under that. There is a long history of quarantine requirements in this country going back to smallpox

An individual state doesn’t owe you due process to travel in times of emergency.
