I deal with cops every day. I know that does happen, but the number of cops that have their rights violated by criminals is far far greater.
If we ever got to the point that people were routinely being asked to be searched at random, I would feel differently, but that’s just not the case. Most folks that are pulled over, just give the cop their licensce and registration and that’s it and no search takes place. It is interesting that all of the litigation in these cases involves people who are arguing to supress the cocaine that was found in the trunk etc.

I don’t know how thugs can violate the rights of cops. Abuse them, disrespect them, etc. , yes. Unfortunately, that’s goes with the job and I agree it’s wrong. If I’m stopped, I’ll produce my license, registration. I won’t consent to a search without a warrant. The cop shouldn’t expect me to trust his intentions anymore than he is willing to trust mine. As long as I am violating no laws, I expect to be left alone.
