In yet another huge blow to our Constitution, the Supreme Court ruled in Jan 2015 that a police officer can violate your 4th Amendment rights if they make a ‘reasonable’ mistake regarding the law.
If you are ignorant of the law, that is no excuse, but if a cop is ignorant of the law, he can violate your rights.
As incredible as it sounds, any cop can ‘play dumb’ and proceed to do anything he wants to you and feel secure that his excuse of ignorance will shield him.
How in the hell can a cop be expected to uphold the law if he doesn’t even know the law?

that is funny, I was in traffic court and was watching a girl talking to the judge about why she should have her charges dropped and the judge responded by saying ” ignorance of the law is no excuse.”
And they can die trying
they are now letting people with green cards become police and fireman so u can see where this is going
Once a storm trooper always a storm trooper? Circle New York. And bounce all undesirables out.
Ignorance of the law is no excuse. Any judge will tell you that.
It has become evident to me over the years, that most police don’t really know the LAW!’
People will be schooling them when SHTF.
The Scotus is now longer worth spit.
The statement is at best misleading and at worst totally wrong.
