Absolutely right "professor"! I graduated from a respected, accredited university.
But this wonderful University apparently failed to impart to you the rudiments of our legal system- especially the part the Bill of Rights plays.
There is a presumption that a citizen who has not been charged with a crime, and who has not been served with a warrant, has the right to be secure in his home and possessions.
The Fifth Amendment seems to imply that mere silence cannot be taken as evidence of guilt.
I know that there are lots of prosecutors, police, and others out there who think that we should all just touch our forelocks and say "Yes, Sir" to anything they want- but if we did, this would be a police state.
Of course, if YOU ever come under unjustified suspicion, I am willing to allow you to invite the police in to search through your closets and sock drawers, and then to "leak" anything they may consider incriminating to the press. You have the right to waive your rights.
But you DON'T have the right to waive MINE!
