I like the idea of banishment. In fact, there are a couple of people whom I would like to banish, if only I had the power. Or connections. Maybe someday.

Anyway, I see the answer to Anchorage's homeless situation here. Pretty obvious, eh? If tribes can do it, I don't see any reason why municipalities can't foist their purported troublemakers on someone else. So have at it folks. For really bad actors, I can envision serial banishment.

I do believe that the same situation should apply to search and seizure. Coming in from another community or tribal area? Let's see what you have there, sport. We could start with aircraft traffic, but with the power of computers, no reason that we couldn't stop road traffic as it crosses a boundary. Have nothing to hide? Then no worries. But I'd bet that, in tough times like these, we'd find enough contraband to, er, make the stops pay. And then some.

Might try to patent these ideas, so remember that you saw them here first.
