So what ruling did SCOTUS pass to make state level cops across the board act like thugs?

My point was removing citizens rights slowly and surely....this is not a Lib or Con issue. It's about the smoke and mirrors that those on both sides of the isle play to acquire more control of the population...in the meantime, refusing to enforce laws already present on the books. Illegal immigration for one.

The willful intent of politicians / lawmakers to have the f'n excuse to pass more stupid laws to enforce at their whim.

The Socialist Agenda does not equate to the Liberal Agenda.

Sad part, many Americans say or do nothing when BS continuously crops up in government. William Jefferson, D. LA.... another fine example of the 2-faced BS in our government. Congress, the FBI, and the US Attorney General Bozogonzales all in lock-step on this dude with the evidence clearly on film!! Where's the beloved Breyer and Ginsberg on this item??

Wickard v. Filburn started it. It took the DEA operating under the authority established by that ruling to create the "Task Force" operations that train, direct, and in some cases pay the salaries of local cops involved in these operations. They set the example for the rest.
