Although we are talking about the Fourth Amendment here, the Fifth also is applicable. I too am was of the inclination of “I have nothing to worry about, I'll talk to the police, or let them look around.” Then I watched the following youtube. “Never talk to the police.” A VERY good, entertaining, and yes - educational video.

Now. Tell me more about why you take all of your news from the internet so it can't be traced. And your interest in murder and firearms I find fascinating! ;)

All of that said - I thought that those roadblocks to actually catch and arrest drunk drivers were ruled “lawful” because they either test/search ALL of the people, or test/search RANDOM people. “Lawful” is in quotes as I don't see those clauses in the Fourth Amendment.

I already said that the newspapers are rags. I don't watch the news on T.V. because I find the newscasters talk about news that I read about on the Internet hours before.
You think I take all my news from the Internet so it CAN'T BE TRACED??? Hahaha! That is funny. You sound like a conspiracy theorist.

Firearms: my husband worked in a sporting goods store for some time. One of the things they sold was firearms. I had never shot a gun in my life and we lived in a rural area. There were wolves, wild cats and a ton of marijuana growers, buyers and sellers in the area. My husband thought that there should be a gun in our home and that I should know how to use it.
I never had to but at least I knew how to use one. He taught me to shoot pistols and rifles. I got to shoot an "over-under air force" gun...I think that was the name of it.

You haven't read Georgette Heyer or Ellis Peters. Georgette Heyer wrote about the Regency period in England. They are romances. She wrote some murder mysteries but I didn't read them. I LOVED her Regency romances. They are famous.

Ellis Peters (woman) wrote about a Benedictine monk from the 11th century. He had been a sailor at one time and a soldier in the Crusades but returned to England to finally settle down. He turned 40+ and knew it was time to settle down. CADFAEL was his name. He grew herbs for the monastery he lived in. He used to solve the local crimes by use of herbs or plants. Great stuff.
