My [r]epublican Thought of The Day - Note to Libertarians: STOP righteously quoting the U.S. Constitution to Local & State cops, youre making the liberty issue worse. Fast forward to around 03:30 of this video to witness a bad attitude cop at a random road side checkpoint, demand a drivers license and proof of insurance from the Libertarian driver of the car. What follows is tragic because the young man makes good points but he uses the wrong, not applicable document, the U.S. Constitution when he should be using the Illinois Constitution. Folks, we will NEVER regain any control over liberty laws by playing incorporation Doctrine follies with local cops. As the cop is yelling about safe driving and the state law conditions for driving a car in IL the young man is demanding to know if he is being detained. A better defense, citing the IL Constitution would have been: SECTION 6. SEARCHES, SEIZURES, PRIVACY AND INTERCEPTIONS, No warrant shall issue without probable cause, supported by affidavit particularly describing the place to be searched and the persons or things to be seized. Forcing IL cops to obey the IL Constitution (regardless of outcome) is the correct, smart, Liberty enhancing play here. youtube/watch?v=Irh04jsMNJ8#t=354
