Supreme traitors to the constitution…

Did anyone read the ruling? How would you handle adding a prisoner to the general population?

The situation was that they thought the safety of prisoners was paramount over the “unreasonable search and seizure” clause in the Constitution. The person who brought this case — and lost it — was a man who had been falsely accused of a crime, CARRIED the piece of paper confirming that it was false and had been dismissed, and when pulled over by the cops, not only had this fact ignored but was taken to prison and strip-searched. Let’s take a look here. An innocent man, with NO EVIDENCE WHATSOEVER, was seized and taken to prison and strip-searched to protect the prisoners. What? Really?

maybe the judges should be stripped searched every time they come to court

The last time I checked Jesse James, John Dillinger, Billy the Kid etc all had butts, and not one of them used a gun secreted therein to escape. In fact, I was unable to find any reference to escapes using anything brought in by a prisoner from outside.

Bors’ satiric contempt for the Roberts Court is well placed. It’s been over a century since we’ve had a Supreme Court so hostile to democracy and civil liberty.

supreme court did some really stupid rulings. dred scott, plessy. if pasties are indecent. citizens united. bush v gore. if sexting is email, and now this strip search and non-enacted healthcare law. one thing though, if a cop does a cavity search and founds that the person has lesions or a polyp or a tumor, is it contraband or health? does that mean that law enforcement becomes medical pros? tim mcveigh didn’t hide chemical fertilizer in his anus. richard reed didn’t hide plastique in his anus. and, the unabomber didn’t hide plastique in his anus.

huzzah!

The Roberts Court will come to be known as one of the most political courts in our history.
