   I *CAN NOT* believe my eyes... MSNBC was covering the police at checkpoints. LE opening up trunks and looking in every vehicle. Am I still in America?

Yes, that's another thing police said to Rita: Road block will not end until every car is searched

So...is having your trunk opened a greater violation or being shot by a sniper? It will not be simple or without some sacrifice to catch this guy or group.

If they get the permission from the owners then there is not a problem ..

The police are not forcing these trunks open .. the owners are opening them

This started with DUI checkpoints. Welcome to the slippery slope. Your papers please?
