Straw man. If you're growing pot in plain view, the police can quite easily get a warrant to search your house. If I'm driving along and violating no law and the cops set up checkpoints in order to have dogs sniff my car, the situation is quite different.

Wow. You just went from private property to public property. So it's OKAY for a cop to catch you breaking the law on private property but not on public property? It's that backwards from the 4th amendment?

There is a world of difference between someone doing something illegal in plain view (such as growing pot in their front yard) and someone driving along apparently following the law.
