    The law here actually extends to areas near international borders(up to 100 miles) and in principle includes any airport that receives international flights. So, basically everywhere. This occasionally comes up in real cases.

            If anything they have human rights. There’s also the minimum set of implicit rights that are prerequisite for the concept of eg.: allowing foreigners to request asylum. Now if your country didn’t sign in those conventions, that’s a whole ¿nother horde of issues.

              Are you implying other countries don’t have these rules? I would be very surprised if EU countries didn’t have similar allowances for border control, for example.

              The US border control isn’t forcing anyone to do anything, people can choose to not enter the country if they don’t like the rules. And honestly, I wouldn’t blame them.

              I personally wish US constitutional protections extended to everyone interacting w/ US law enforcement, regardless of where that happens, but that’s not the case.
