As far as I am concerned - the day the first 'inspection stations' were put up in airports is the day that marked the final death of the Fourth Amendment in this country. The death bed was laid when the SC(r)OTU(ms)S first ruled that police could search WITHOUT warrant upon 'probable cause'. Many times in my life, police have been dumbfounded when I flat refused them permission to search my vehicle during some valid, many invalid, 'traffic stops'. They couldn't believe it. NEVER ONCE has one of them attempted to get a search warrant - which they most certainly would have done had they any actual 'probable cause'.
This last year, I opted out of EVER serving on a jury because they have instituted unCONSTITUTIONAL searches to even enter the Court buildings here in Collin Co., Texas. Call it a mental illness - let them arrest me - I am standing by my statements, signed by me under the standard threats of perjury - and refusing to submit a 'doctors' opinion. My word is ALL that they have a 'right' to require - if they have 'probable cause' to doubt my veracity - let the bass-turds PROVE it in court.
EOR - End of Rant ... Now, the reason for the post - THE FOLLWOING CRAP IS DANGEROUS TO OUR FREEDOM
