Wow. I’m shocked. This SCOTUS seemed to really love that Police State. Good for them.

Getting a warrant isn’t that difficult, this one is a no-brainer.

Getting a warrant is as easy as getting a cup of coffee.

Go grab a warrant, Barney Fife!

In the meantime I’ll do a password-protected backup and then do a factory default reset of my phone because it was, um, unresponsive. Search away!

(Yes, there are forensics experts [they have plenty of free time since they aren’t working the IRS case] but in the meantime the local constabulary will be flummoxed.)

“The Court does hold that a warrantless search is permitted in exigent circumstances, which is always true for searches. That is limited, however. The Court gives the examples of child abduction and the threat of bombs being detonated.”

“The Court does not even permit warrantless searches that are related to the reasons for an arrest.”

Bravo!

Yes, but those Track Phones you buy at Family Dollar for $10 and register in the names of Thad Cochran, Henri Brooks, Hillary Clinton, etc..... just to text inflamatory tweets sure does make for fun.

Those aren’t the droids the police state is looking for.

That's assuming that you still have possession of the phone, aren't in handcuffs and can just pull it out without getting shot like a panting chihuahua by the cops.

The ruling was unanimous. I don't know why you feel compelled to give a backhanded compliment.

Easier. And you don't have to pay for a warrant.

Do you have a experience obtaining search warrants?

Why would you mention coffee? What's the requirements for getting a search warrant in your state?
