This is false, and what is annoying is that we have had this discussion before -- and I have told you that you're wrong -- but it seems you prefer your own conception of the Constitution to reality.
Some constitutional rights apply equally to aliens. Some apply equally only to some aliens. Some apply only to citizens. I am happy to provide case cites off-line.
