		<description>There’s an inverse of Ayn Rand’s concept (the anti-Rand?):  make one thing illegal that everyone has in common so that it’s possible to arrest anyone for anything.  

Example:  A cop wants to arrest someone for having blue eyes, so the officer busts them for possessing pot.  Brown-eyed people go free, unless they meet cops who don’t like brown eyes.  Then the brown-eyes get busted for pot.  Intended result: the green-eyed cops take over the world, even though the green-eyed cops smoke more pot than anybody else on the planet.</description>

		<description>Winston Salem laws apparently inspired Woody Guthrie to write a song many years ago (see the second to last line). Seems things haven&#039;t changed too much.

Against Th&#039; Law

It´s aginst th´ law to walk, It´s aginst th´ law to talk
It´s against th´ law to loaf, It´s aginst th´ law to work
It´s aginst th´ law to read, It´s aginst th´ law to write
It´s aginst th´ law to be a black or brown or white.

Ever´thing’s aginst th´ law
I´m a low pay daddy singing th´ high price blues

It´s aginst th´ law to eat, It´s aginst th´ law to drink
It´s aginst th´ law to worry, It´s aginst th´ law to think
It´s aginst th´ law to marry or to try to settle down
It´s aginst th´ law to ramble like a bum from town to town

Ever´thing’s aginst th´ law
I´m a low pay daddy singing th´ high price blues

It´s aginst th´ law to come, It´s against th´ law to go
It´s against th´ law to ride, It´s against th´ law to roll
It´s aginst th´ law to hug, It´s against th´ law to kiss
It´s against th´ law to shoot, It´s against th´ law to miss

Ever´thing’s aginst th´ law
I´m a low pay daddy singing th´ high price blues

It´s aginst th´ law to gamble, It´s aginst th´ law to roam
It´s aginst th´ law to organize or try to build a home
It´s aginst th´ law to sing, It´s aginst th´ law to dance
It´s aginst th´ law to tell you th´ trouble on my hands

Ever’thing in Winston Salem is aginst th’ law
I’ma low pay daddy singin’ th’ high price blues.</description>

		<description>kant,

It&#039;s called &quot;preventive detention.&quot; It&#039;s supposed to be prohibited by the Sixth Amendment&#039;s guarantee of a speedy trial, but it&#039;s been in use at Guantanamo Bay for quite awhile.</description>

		<description>The one that scares me the most is

(4) Such person behaving in such a manner as to raise a reasonable suspicion that he is about to engage in or is engaged in an unlawful drug-related activity;

This means (if i&#039;m reading it right) that suspicion alone constitutes a crime. 


although 7 is a close second.

(7) Such person being at a location frequented by persons who use, possess or sell drugs.</description>

		<description>Hi Pete.
This post reminded me of something.  I hope you don&#039;t mind me spreading it here.  It was found by one of Michigan&#039;s MMMA bloggers.

		<description>Too bad they overturned this law.  If nothing else, it sounds like it finally banned those egregious DUI checkpoints:

&lt;blockquote&gt;(2) Repeatedly stopping or attempting to stop motor vehicles;

(3) Repeatedly interfering with the free passage of other persons; &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Of course that would only occur if those enforcing the laws were compelled to abide by them. Yeah, right...</description>
