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?

Knowing the law is their JOB…
I DON’T THINK SO!
If citizens don’t know the law the law does not care you still get slapped with a fine.
Hahahahhaaaahhhhhaaa!!!! THIS IS PREPOSTEROUS!!!
No Excuses
Abolish the Supreme Court.
So if I ”Break” the law because I don’t know law it’s ok then?????
Then why are you Youaresupposedtoknowouramericanlaws
The caliber of police, in many ways, is NOT the saving, protecting and friendly policeman we knew we could run if we were scared or in trouble sad to say.
if they dont know the law then they should not be a cop.
