Keeping just one step ahead of the intergalactic fashion police.

“..statutes requiring suspects..”

In this instance I fail to see how she was a suspect. So I don’t think that ruling would apply to her even if it does cover California. I don’t know if the ruling only applied to Nevada.

You do not need to show ID. The author of this article is wildly misinformed saying that is step one.

If walking down the street and COP asks you for ID, REFUSE!

You are not required to show ID. Long ago or now.

Hopefully Lee, some day you may have the same freedoms us whites do. I pray that you live to see it happen.

Not if they can be convinced that the couple are making an ironic post modern hipster statement about eco fashion.

Why have you addressed this to me? Did you not comprehend my post? I thought I was quite clear in asking about the lack of Probable Cause.

Me too, ....

Changed my mind.

Cop had probable cause. no way that guy could get a chick that hot without paying for it. (or she was Muslim)

I just know that, around here, if a couple of kids are caught in a car doing the wild thing they are arrested.

I never really understood that either. When I was a youngster there were out of the way spots that the kids used. The cops would drive out there and hassle the kids and threaten to arrest them. I wouldn't want my kids out there but that's not really a police matter.

The Nevada Supreme Court has interpreted that “identify himself” to mean to merely state his name. As of April 2008, 23 other states[2] have similar laws.

See my response above.

Sorry was my post very complicated or something?

I was addressing posters who appeared to be defending Ms Watts’ 4th Amendment right not to be arrested without probable cause and in so doing I was pointing out that other posters on this site are not so protective of constitutional rights as you and others are.

I was simply warning you that you will get grief from people who don’t fully understand the Constitution and who somehow believe that it only applies to them rather than Hollywood actresses dressed casually and in the company of their husband on a Sunday afternoon.

I apologise if my original post was not clear but it seems clear enough to me.

>>If you click on the link in the story...it states she was sitting in the husband’s lap in a car making out.

Maybe that didn’t happen...I don’t know. I wasn’t there. But if it did...that’s a little more than kissing in public.<<

HORRORS! My HS GF and I should have been arrested every damn day!

>>As far as showing id... no, I don’t have a problem. I show id to buy a beer or get on a plane. Our rights re: showing id were lost long ago.<<

4th Amendment? What 4th Amendment? Why fight for something that out forefathers died for? It isn’t a question of DOING SOMETHING, it is a question of just existing.

It was thinking like yours that led to obozocare.

You must be very proud.

I have a problem with the idea that I should be prepared to produce a “proper” ID everyday, everywhere I go, if a government employee demands it, except on the second Tuesday of November every other year.

Oh, I get it, you weren't saying Watts was a loser here, you were warning me the Jackboots and Bootlickers would give me grief.

Not necessary, I'm a big boy.

Does “Stop and Identify” mean tell the police who you are or does it mean produce identification? There is a difference and I’m curious.

You are required to state your name only.

>>It doesn’t apply to a black woman wearing, you know extremely slutty clothes like, er, a white tee-shirt and baggy shorts on a sunny Sunday afternoon.

George III would have loved some of the posters here.<<

Ain’t that the damn truth.

They want to despise a probable-liberal actor more than uphold the USC.

They also will be the first to run waving their papers when asked for them by the new SS saying “look at me, I am a good Citizen of the Demokracy!!”

Oh puhleeze! What the heck does obamacare have to do with this?

If your HS GF was sitting on your lap and ya’ll were passionate and in the view of the public and police that shows a certain amount of inconsideration to the other people in the neighborhood. Doesn’t it? I wouldn’t admit to such behavior or sound proud of it. Of course, we all went to make out somewhere...just in private. Every town had a Lovers Lane, but it usually wasn’t Main Street.

This really doesn’t have squat to do with the 4th Amendment, the Founding Fathers or the fight to protect freedom. Because of the area, the cops thought she might be a hooker. She wouldn’t show an id. The husband did. Get a grip.

I don’t get all wadded up when the liquor store person (back in the day, lol) asked to see my id or the airline attendant asks to see one. I SURE didn’t get all bent this year when I voted and had to show an id.

And yes...just for the record I am very proud of myself.
