I watched the movie. Tell me, do you think every woman driving past has a hidden weapon in her rectum. Doesn't every person have that same potential? So if they weren't arrested, why check for weapons? Was it your SOP to do a cavity search on everyone you pulled over, just in case?
I've read the Constitution and the Declaration. God given rights. Violate those and pay the price. Your opinion counts for squat in that matter.
LEO pulls this crap on my wife or daughters and they don't make it home one night. Understand? That badge doesn't make a person Superman.
The LEO saw something tossed out the window. Sounds like a littering ticket. Smells MJ? Fine, give a sobriety test to the driver. Far too many LEOs are nothing but badge bullies, who turn away from confronting real problems (too scarey) and focus instead on people they expect to be timid and compliant. I've seen that happen too many times to count.
I'm as cordial as I can be if I'm pulled over, and I've given assistance to an LEO that needed it, but I give them no more leeway than any other citizen when it comes to respecting people's rights and dignity.
LEOs now operate on the principal that to ensure their personal safety, they must violate other people's rights. That is unacceptable to free people.
Even the Nazis didn’t conduct cavity searches in public. Especially not over littering.
