Fuck 'em.
QUOTE
The justices voted 6-3 in favor of a driver who was found to have methamphetamine in his car. Dennys Rodriguez was issued a warning for driving on the shoulder of a Nebraska highway and then made to wait less than 10 minutes for officers to walk a drug-sniffing dog around the car. The dog alerted and a search of the vehicle turned up the drugs.

Eat a dick, cops.  Eat a fucking dick.

Wow, I guess sometimes they do still support the rights of the citizens.  

Weird.

Well, 2/3rds of them.
QUOTE
Justices Samuel Alito, Anthony Kennedy and Clarence Thomas dissented.
...
Alito called Tuesday's decision "unnecessary, impractical and arbitrary" because the officer did have reasonable suspicion that the car contained drugs.

Unnecessary.  Impractical.  Arbitrary.  All words I'd use to describe the country's drug policy from top to bottom, fed to local levels, as well as most aspects of justice or law enforcement.

Holy shit.  Supreme Court is kicking ass and taking names.
QUOTE
The court's liberal justices defended the program's intent -- to prop up market prices when too many raisins are grown -- but they acknowledged it may be outdated. It was used most recently during the bumper crop years of 2003-04; in one of those years, growers were blocked from selling 47% of the crop.

Fortunately, sanity is likely prevailing.

QUOTE
The court's conservative justices, led by Chief Justice John Roberts, exhibited little patience for the Obama administration's arguments on behalf of a regulatory program begun during the Truman administration.

That went before them at the beginning of March.  Means no word until June or July.

Train kept a-rollin'.
QUOTE
The Supreme Court struck down a Los Angeles ordinance Monday that allowed police to inspect hotel guest records on demand.

The justices voted 5-4to reject the city's argument that the measure was needed to help fight prostitution, drug trafficking and illegal gambling at budget hotels and motels.

Go fuck yourselves, authoritarian assholes.  Find a time machine, turn back the clock a few decades, and go find employment in the USSR.  I almost have hope the court's not full of idiots.

I find this statement delicious, in the wake of your American 2 posting.

Justice Anthony Kennedy and Sotomayor's three liberal colleagues joined her in the majority.

Little surprised by that grouping.

The rules for cops looking out for "public safety" isn't the same set of rules for everyday driving.  If cops want hotel records, they can get a warrant or Warrant.  The rules of driving are staggeringly simple.

1) Don't hit anything.
2) Maximize throughput for the most cars possible in the least amount of aggregate time.

Supreme Court rules mandatory minimum sentences were applied stupidly.
