The Supreme Court on Monday ruled by a 5-to-4 vote that officials may strip-search people arrested for any offense, however minor, before admitting them to jails even if the officials have no reason to suspect the presence of contraband.
More authoritarianism legally sanctioned by activist judges

A report released details how many times the unwarranted information is handed over to the government from cell phone companies...

Quote:
The results showed a disturbing rise in the use of phones as a central tool for law enforcement, including tracking location and even using “tower dumps”–collections of all the stored information collected from all users of a cell phone tower–without a warrant.

It’s important to remember that the information revealed Monday includes “tower dumps,” too, says Chris Calebrese, an attorney with the ACLU. “Just the sheer volume of orders is amazing, but a significant chunk are dumps from entire cell towers,” he says. “That means tons of people’s information is being grabbed with a single one of these orders.”
Full story here.

A NYT photojournalist talks about the increasing number of people (including members of the media) being arrested for taking photos of public places, especially if theres police action going on.

There was a similar incident last week that I didn't post, but here's one from LA with the police throwing down a woman onto the concrete...twice....once while she was handcuffed, then the two officers fist bump each other after the lady was in their squad car as if they were celebrating...

The lady's offense that warranted such a violent arrest? Talking on her cellphone while driving.

Story here.

an absolute disgrace and a national embarrassment. I know full well if I was accosted by scumbags like this I'd be dead because I would not take this schitt....I am a concealed weapons carrier and I wonder how they would treat me when they knew.
