Let's save time and go right to methodical house to house searches. If you're not doing anything wrong, you won't mind the police looking in your closets and under your beds.

right?

Why not? Why not have house to house searches? If we are going that far, why have trials? The police see you doing something wrong, they should take you straight to jail. Right?

In both instances the court found that benefits to public safety and order outweighed the inconvenience and loss of privacy suffered by motorists.

Just theory, no proof, a bunch of worthless theory.

As long as they only did it say every 6 months why not? What are you hiding a PCP lab or something? I can always spot you drug addled libertarians. Remember: Dayton city prosecutor Deirdre Logan says, "These types of checkpoints don't violate the Constitution." She's in the government so she should know - I think they take a class or something. We're only protected from unreasonable searchs and those will always be exactly what the guys with guns courts say they are.

You have a right to privacy in your own home that does not carry over to a vehicle. Driving a vehicle is a privilege rather than a right.This argument has gone on for years and needs to be spelled out once and for all.People driving automobiles kill more people every year than wars do.At the rate things are going in this country you will be begging for security within the next five years or we will be wiped out.Laws are written for lawbreakers and lawyers those of us who obey the law should not mind a small amount of inconvenience.

As long as they search every fourth house, and they find evidence of wrongdoing that is not immediately recognizable to police any other way, then I guess the SC would allow it.
