Who has reason to dislike this new ruling besides people who handle or use illegal drugs?Your "sixth sense" must be out of whack! If you think that the only folk affected are users, go ahead and drink the Kool-aid... Oh, that explains a lot. You're a Canadian.
You don't have any idea what you are saying, but you can still say it... First Amdt.
You sound like the Dims raking Dr/ Rice... FYI, I live in WV, and if you read my other posts, you would know that my oldest son is a cop. I've been around here a lot longer than you... I simply posted a pic to make a visual point.
As for calling me a liar, bite me! Don't post to me, until you have something to add!
Don't get mad.
And I certainly never called you a liar, so I don't understand why you said I did. Read it again. As I recall, I believe I qualified all that by stating it was my opinion. Relate some particulars about all the traffic stops, and I'll change my opinion. Might even consider biting you, as a token of my humiliation. 8-) I'm not worried about that, because I think it's really bizarre behaviour for an mature adult (you have a son who is a cop) to even think about locking his doors during the circumstances you described.
It's simple, really. You hate cops. So be it. It is, however, a minority position.
If I missed on the Canadian part, I apologize. It's just a personal thing with me about Canadians who criticize the US in areas where they have no standing.
Even out of context, my quote in your post still makes sense to me. The inference needs no explanation, and it was directed primarily at those who profess opposition to the ruling for specific reasons that have nothing to do with 4th Amendment issues.
You're arguing legal philosophy, and I'm not. We'll never agree with anything coming from those divergent directions. Not a new thing, is it?
I posted that very same pic two days ago in another thread about Kerry. It was a progression of funny pics, and that one fit right into the progression. Didn't take. I'm still learning.
To close out, if I assume, based on our correspondence, that you also are opposed to the Patriot Act (for civil rights infringement issues), I support it 110%, because of the results it has obtained which kept our country safe from terrorist attack. (It has, you know.)
If my assumption is correct, there couldn't be a better example to demonstrate our differences on these issues.
No hard feelings on my part. Hope the same is true for you.
