Yes, I would let the police search my car. I have nothing to hide. Was this lady just supposed to ignore those men's remarks? Were the police just supposed to say "Oh sorry to have bothered you" when the men refused to have their car searched? Three of the 911 hijackers received speeding tickets on the morning of 911, one other hijacker was pulled over, he was on a list of some sort, but wasn't checked out thoroughly enough. Sorry, right now, we cooperate with the police in what they have to do. I know some FReepers think that this is a big encroachment on civil liberties, but where do you draw the line. What do you take seriously?

Well the searching the car thing...goes either way. I don't have a problem with someone letting the police search their car. BUT I see both sides...you would most likely agree with this?
I don't know HOW much they cooroperated...again we don't have the whole story.
We don't know the truth...but I am trying to point out a few things that seems to be lost in all of this. They could be innocent...and it is very easy for someone to just make a call and wham...we see what happens. I do not know if there really is a solution to some of these problems. We are on HIGH alert...so I guess everyone involved should understand? I don't know...again it is a touchy issue. I feel sorry for them if they are innocent. Surely you would agree? Regardless of where they are from...they still have rights. Anyway...let's see what new information comes out.
I agree with another poster...the feds might have told the local police to back off. That could explain A LOT! :)
