That's the disturbing part. The court said they can, if they want to. Which is giving the choice to the jail/jurisdiction/etc. If you don't think a jail can be trusted with this, why do you think a jail would adhere to "reasonable cause" or other concepts brought up earlier in the thread. > And I hate the routine degradation of our constitutional rights.

Two completely different things. The Supreme Court gave no ruling about wether or not he should have been sent to jail in the first place, only what could happen (at the jail's discretion) once he was sent there. > That's not extremist rhetoric, Cam.

Justice Kennedy wrote, in the actual ruling, "every detainee who > will be admitted to the general population may be required to undergo > a close visual inspection while undressed." > Yes. Which is completely different than, and directly contradicts "Supreme Court just said that it was perfectly acceptable for a man to get strip searched *twice* because they thought he hadn't paid a fine." They said "Those who are admitted to jail are subject to routine jail procedures". They did NOT say, "If you don't pay a fine, you should get sent to jail and strip searched. > So where is my extremist rhetoric, Cam? Mainly in your emails, though you probably speak it out loud too. Though I can't really say for sure, I don't think we've had a beer before. :) -Cameron ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:349369 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
