Politicians making laws VS The Supreme Court telling cops that it IS constitutional for them to search you, search your car, AND take your money if they "suspect" it "might" be "drug money"
I'm not discussing the LAW. The draconian drug laws were already jacked up when Nixon declared "War On Drugs"
The ONLY difference I'm talking about, as related to what happened to this woman and her money...is that the Supreme Court ruled it was constitutional for cops to do what they did.
I really have ZERO idea of why you are continuing this.
You're talking about laws put in place by bureaucrats. I'm talking about the constitutionality of cops being able to do what they did to that woman because the Supreme Court made those rulings a couple of decades ago.
You aren't even having the same discussion as I am.

Laws are made then law enforcement act upon those laws. Law enforcement did not take it upon themselves to start searching cars or sizing money etc. etc. etc. until law makers passed laws saying they could do so...in the "war" against whatever...and they would have stopped doing so if the Supreme Court had ruled that the law or the way they were enforcing the law was/is unconstitutional. The Court certainly does not make law enforcement protocol.
