When judges start letting things slide because it's "just a technicality" or "just a formality," then my red flags start going up.<br /><br />There are reasons why we have laws spelling out protections against illegal search and seizure. Mirandizing is not a damn technicality. Probable cause is not just a suggestion.<br /><br />If we have judges - Supremes or otherwise - who start compromising those protections, then it'll just snowball.<br /><br />And Big Brother will be running rampant right in the middle of it.TennZenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16818485347898628125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24855322.post-45057760488478785652009-06-08T23:20:12.631-07:002009-06-08T23:20:12.631-07:00Amen to that, my friend!Amen to that, my friend!HermitJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13631580830147175636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24855322.post-72686142443165055642009-06-08T22:27:38.509-07:002009-06-08T22:27:38.509-07:00I heartily agree with yer closing line, hoss.

It takes a whole block to rescue a whole block. And that's ALL it takes, if people had balls. <br /><br />We beat The Taliban, and the Fundies, like that, too.<br /><br />Same game, same system, same protocols.<br /><br />We beat them all, if we WANT to.<br /><br />Harumph.Laruehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17538452152855625864noreply@blogger.com
