Pretty easy to get two hacks confused I guess. Maybe we should loosen unreasonable search and sezieure. I watched an episode of CSI where a bad guy had a gun his car and did a terrorist attack because the cops didn’t get a warrant in time. Thank you TV for showing me I don’t need any rights!

How you’d call that a hack is insane since your argument boiled down to rah rah mah rights. Especially since I refuted that in my first comment.
