The searchers do NOT define what is reasonable. The law does. There are very specific laws codifying what is required for a search and seizure to be considered reasonable. A friend of mine, who is a lawyer, just successfully argued such a case before the US Supreme Court. The cops searched his client's car at a routine traffic stop, and the court threw it out as being an unreasonable search for lack of probable cause. So clearly, the searchers didn't get to define "reasonable".
Hmm.... That is clear only if the lawyer is successful, which is generally defined by how much one is willing/able to pay for said lawyer. In lieu of that, the searchers do get to define "reasonable" and you're SOL.
Oh, yeah, because there's such a history of judges ignoring the clearly-defined laws on search and seizure and allowing evidence from improper and illegal ones.
Sorry for your persecution theory, but the cops don't decide what unreasonable is. The law does.
I love all this legal theory.
The cops lie their fucking asses and the legal profession agrees to believe them.
Please you fucking people act like our cirminal justice system is described in the continuous litany of cop and lawyers shows that are there to propaganize us.
Get a clue!
Going to court is losing to begin with if you need a lawyer to protect yourselves.
