you also need a warrant to open reg mail. Private companies can do what ever they want

Customs (in dealing with international mail being imported) doesn't even need probable cause does it? Can't they randomly open packages to spot check, I know they have screening criteria and such, but can't they pull random packages to search just like they can search you when you enter the country even if there is no 'probable cause'?
I know the postal inspectors can't open stuff that way but I think customs can. I don't have experience with steroids per se, but I do have a lot of experience with the importation of other things. I once even smuggled illegal exotic animals inside my jacket pocket, this was pre 9/11 though. They were even making noise and moving around in my coat pocket, I had to hold my forearm against the velcro top of the pocket so they couldn't get out. lol
I was sweating it at the time passing through the screening points but would never risk that in todays day and age with the jackbooted thugs we have in the usa looking for every excuse to interfere in the lives of private citizens.
Hell, in the 80's you didn't even need to show ANY ID AT ALL to travel on a plane domestically. Friggin government sucks ass.
