Don't have time to read all the responses on this thread, so if I repeat what someone else has pointed out, my apologies.

This ruling is further proof that a majority on the current court are more in touch with 'international law' than they are with the fundemental principles that made this country what it is.

And everyone needs a reminder that the current court is loaded, 7-2, with 'justices' that were appointed by Republican Presidents.

A good thing to remember when judging the quality of soon-to-be-coming nominees.

Expand on that sometime.

International law?
Oh no, not at all.
French law is much, much more protective of private property, private homes especially, and the personal privacy of individuals on their property than American law is, across the board.
The American justices today most certainly did not get any of this precedent from French law or the Civil Law system.

No, I am afraid that this court decision is a Frankenstein monster of purely American making, starting with the remarkable fact that a court should be deciding this issue AT ALL.

Thanks, for stating what should be obvious. IMO, it's past time to raze DC and salt the earth so nothing political ever grows there again, but I've been of that opinion for some time now. To think some here were anxious for a 2nd Amd case to hit these tards. Blackbird.
