Since the men and women who serve as judges attended law school, the question must be asked what these law schools are teaching. Or perhaps a better question would be, “with what are these law schools indoctrinating their students?” Far too often we learn of judicial decisions that make no sense, and we’re not talking only of the bizarre decisions federal judges have made regarding President Trump’s travel ban.
The courts have power because the people respect them and the executive branches enforce their decisions. Take these away, and the courts just turn into editorial departments. Sometimes it seems like that is the direction they wish to take.

I’m sure this article was heavily edited… I would like to see the entire police report… probable cause is subjective and I’m sure there was more to the story…
I think there will be problems with this one.
You need to read US v. Kevin Newland. In that case, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals declared that a b.s. stop of a Black man on I-95 close to Baltimore was good because I-95 is a well-known drug corridor. No evidence presented that I-95 was a well-known drug corridor other than a declaration by a prosecutor in an unrelated case some years earlier.
Judges suck

Ernest Clevenger You have NO IDEA of the nonsense you spew. A bad stop and search is a violatioon of the presumption of innocence – the law since 1895. I don’t care if she had the Lindberg baby in the trunk
Wth!
David Kent sounds reasonable , except , you leave out the part how addictive and destructive these drugs are , wont matter how cheap they are , would you really want a drug as addictive as heroin to be so easily available? not that its real hard to find , i dated a women who was on heroin , the$#%&!@*destroyed her in every way possible , mentally physically ,spiritually , yes it was illegal and did not stop her , but man what would it be like if you could get heroin at the local gas station or 7-11 ? win a bag of heroin at a local church raffle?hot dogs and crack at a yankee game? your stand and view would seem reasonable if you didnt want to scratch the surface or dig at least one step further , i dont buy it dude, i have seen it first hand how a person who just decided to try it once ends up being annihilated by the addictive nature of these drugs
WTF?!
Kansas cops are begging to be shot by law abiding citizens for blatant violations of constitutional rights!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
