What would you do if your 10-year-old daughter came home and said that police stripped searched her…..
What would you do if your 10-year-old daughter came home and said that police stripped searched her…..
What would you do if your 10-year-old daughter came home and said that the police stripped searched her? Any normal person would be outraged.
But in Doe v. Groody - as if to preview things to come under the lash of Republican justice - Michael Chertoff, current Secretary of Home Land Security, and Samuel Alito, proposed appointee to the U.S. Supreme Court, ruled police could strip search of a 10-year-old kid even without a warrant.
Alito, always the Ivy League space cadet, asked a profoundly naive question to one of the lawyers arguing the case. ''Why do you,” Alito queried incredulously, “keep bringing up the fact that this case involves the strip search of a 10-year-old child?" The response should have been, “Precisely because it involved the strip search of a 10-year-old kid, you ditz!”
Ah…but there’s more to come from the Republican Gulliverian yahoos who now control every level of the government. Republican justice can be a flicked thing, one rule for the common man another for the king!
