It's even worse: I know some american court decisions which
limit the rights given in the american constitution to
american citizens only. E.g. the fourth amendment does not
apply to non-americans, therefore police doesn't even need a
warrant to search their house or computer in the eyes of
US justice.
e.g. the Gorshkov case:

http://msnbc.com/news/563379.asp?cp1=1
Does anybody know how to get the text of the decision?
