The 4th Amendment died today....

Supreme Court rules that the 4th can be turned off and on at will by the police....

Read it here.

8-1 with Ginsburg being the only dissenting vote.

Sad day in Amerika.

Indiana ruled last week that you have no right to defend yourself against the cops.  You get to take it to court after the fact (assuming you survive) and hope for a remedy in your favor there.

Pima County, Arizona Sheriff's SWAT Deputies said that they pulled up to Jose Guerena's house with lights and sirens blaring to do a drug investigation.  That statement defies logic.  He grabbed his AR to defend his family.  Never even got the safety off.  71 rounds fired by the police in approximately 7 seconds.  They left him lying for over an hour while he bled out.  Para-Medics were on the scene within 2 minutes but weren't allowed to help him for "security" reasons.  He had served two tours in Iraq and one in A'Stan with the Marines.  Google his name and start reading.  It'll make you sick.  Oh yeah, his wife and 4 year old son were present.   Something fishy here.

Does anyone else see a problem with any of this?  This is fucked up.

Stay safe.

"Exigent circumstances" and "probable cause" piss me off to no end. Both are affronts to teh Fourth Amendment, yet people will claim these give JBTs the 'right' to enter anyone's home and do whatever they damn well please.
Yet people will naively claim these are fair and just- until it happens to them.
I guess it's just a case of, "Just keep walking- nothing to see here... go back to sleep, sheep."

Exactly, Shy. Bad, bad, bad.
