Sotomayor in fiery dissent: Illegal stops 'corrode all our civil liberties'

"
It is no secret that people of color are disproportionate victims of this type of scrutiny," she wrote. "For generations, black and brown parents have given their children 'the talk' -- instructing them never to run down the street; always keep your hands where they can be seen; do not even think of talking back to a stranger -- all out of fear of how an officer with a gun will react to them.
"By legitimizing the conduct that produces this double consciousness, this case tells everyone, white and black, guilty and innocent, that an officer can verify your legal status at any time," she added. "It says that your body is subject to invasion while courts excuse the violation of your rights. It implies that you are not a citizen of a democracy but the subject of a carceral state, just waiting to be cataloged."

But Sotomayor said the case was anything but minor.

"Do not be soothed by the opinion's technical language: This case allows the police to stop you on the street, demand your identification, and check it for outstanding traffic warrants -- even if you are doing nothing wrong," she wrote.
"The Court today holds that the discovery of a warrant for an unpaid parking ticket will forgive a police officer's violation of your Fourth Amendment rights," she added.

Again what did they do wrong,,,when they stop you they always check your info............
 
Funny how left wing dissents are always "fiery" but right wing dissents are ....well....dissents. First we get little confused Justice Ruthie Ginzberg ranting about Trump and then we get a bigoted racist rant from Sotomeyor quoting a personal experience rather than the freaking Constitution in a dissent that any first year law school professor would dismiss as a bigoted and trivial opinion.

Minutes after Edward Strieff walked out of a South Salt Lake City home, an officer stopped him, questioned him, and took his identification to run it through a police database. The officer did not suspect that Strieff had done anything wrong. Strieff just happened to be the first person to leave a house that the officer thought might contain “drug activity.” App. 16–19. As the State of Utah concedes, th

The Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution provides,


"[t]he right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

Again a non answer ....what did UTAH court say was the illegality....dont hand me your talking point bs
 
Funny how left wing dissents are always "fiery" but right wing dissents are ....well....dissents. You have to wonder why Justices of the Supreme Court whom we rely on to interpret the freaking Constitutional put their own biases and bigotry before Constitutional law when they refer to Americans as classes of white, brown and black and and crazy references to something she called the "talk" which does not exist in society or the law.



And because black and brown skinned motherfuckers are , ALLEGEDLY, more prone to commit crimes the police should be given ANY pretext to stop and search

ANY PRETEXT will satisfy SCOTUS law and order types.

I do.


No go forth fellate and swallow,

so again no explanation of the illegality......I know what the amendments say perhaps you say what utah court said
 
She has no more credibility as an 'impartial' judge.


Why is her Fourth Amendment jurisprudence wrong?

because she is too brown?


/
I posted the story / link recently to where during a recent case involving a WHITE man she absolutely went off on this rant about how the judicial system was unfair to blacks / latinos....

The case had nothing to do with race, nothing to do with blacks, nothing to do with Latinos....but she couldn't help herself from making it about minorities anyway.

Then you have the other one who just laid her own political biase against Trump out for the whole world to see.
