I thought that you needed to PROVE who the guilty party was...not just spread the guilt around!

Arrests do not equal guilt, and usually arrests occur before proving guilt or innocence...

Don't arrests usually require some sort of probable cause, or something like that? IMO, just taking everyone present and hauling them off to jail sounds like a major lawsuit just begging to happen.

Arrest does not equal guilt.The hell you say. Have you any idea what amount of cash it takes to prove you are not guilty? Never mind the anguish and inconvenience of having to bail out of jail, missing work for court, etc. Why do you think so many people accept plea bargains even if innocent, it's cheaper and punishment is less than if convicted. IMHO there is an agenda in this country to convict as many people of felonies as possible to keep them from gun ownership and to also keep a data base on them. OK, call me paranoid if you will, but somebody else give me a better explanation as to whats going on.

OK, but upon ALL occupants being "arrested", the car is impounded, any cash on ANY person is confiscated (And must be fought for to be returned!), and a passenger is , IM(not so)HO, illegaly detained for an offense that they did not commit!

Now, the back-seat passenger must retain a lawyer, and fight! If they're "LUCKY", they get off...but it seems the USSC 9 Nazgul are stacking the odds against!
