While I feel a bit uneasy about this particular association, what we are dealing with here can happen to ANYONE. For this reason, I’m happy with this decision as it benefits everyone.

One of my Constitutional Law profs once said to our class that new law is made at the fringes - generally speaking, average and ordinary people doing average and ordinary things don’t cause any cases or controversies.

True. Remember when the government only wanted power to kick down doors without serving a warrant and storm a home with a military style SWAT team when there was some imminent danger like a hostage situation?

Now it’s routine because “they might flush a joint down the toilet”.
