What the hell is it with citizens who jettison their constitutional rights and allow the constabulary to search their vehicle as a result of a simple “civil infraction” traffic stop?
I posit that anyone who agrees to a vehicle search in these circumstances because “I haven’t broken any laws” and “I’ve got nothing to hide” is no US citizen at all.
Tell Larry Law to get a warrant.
Tell Larry Law that you will wait for the K-9 patrol.
Tell Larry Law that you will only open your vehicle when thay have properly executed warrant and...by-the-way...while we wait...I’m calling my lawyer (look up at the nearest highway billboard-—that is your lawyer!)
Obtain audio/video of all contacts with big gov.

Tell Larry Law that you will wait for the K-9 patrol.

Larry law will claim to have smelled something. You can’t prove he is lying, even though he is often wrong. Larry law will use a trick pony, a dog trained to signal on command. Larry Law will harass the crap out of you for refusing. Larry Law will invent any excuse to ignore the Constitution.
