no_such_reality, these “checkpoints” are NOT set up on highways to/from the US/MX border. They are set up on an E/W bound US interstate where we, as Americans, have a God-given right to freely travel them to other points in this “great country” of ours.

Minor nit, you don’t have a right to drive.
There are many places where you can be checked for things from airports to courthouses to high schools.
BTW, what was unreasonable about your interactions with the officers in question? What was onerous in view of the other national concerns around trafficking? Remember, the I-8/I-10 are major trafficking corridors.
