Good Lord, you still don’t have a clue, do you? Nobody minds these women being arrested. What we mind is the ROADSIDE BODY CAVITY SEARCH. I find it impossible to believe that you are too stupid to see the difference in the severity and implications of those two very different reactions to finding a joint in the car, so I’m forced to choose between two extremely unpleasant conclusions: 1) you’re a freaking Nazi, 2) you’re a troll. In either case, you don’t belong here.
I’m of the point of view that sometimes something not too nice like a beating or a cavity search is the ONLY “punishment” that will end up being doled out due to a soft justice system. Is it wrong? Yeah, perhaps so, but if the choice is between someone getting beaten or searched or getting away scot free, I’m going to choose “let them have SOME consquences at least!” EVERY time.
Don’t like it? Let’s see about a less ineffectual justice system where the law is actually the law, not a money grab, then.
To be blunt...doesn’t it piss you off when you read the news and find some scumbag got busted with dope, beat someone up, stole a car, whatever, and they got absolutely nothing because they got it thrown out on a silly technicality? Or they got a jury that let them walk because of some factor that wasn’t the facts of the case?
