TOON: Supreme Court strip search ruling could lead to unintended gov't health care
Okay, that's not all the toon is about, but it's my favorite panel.

decision?
Body cavity searches for a traffic stop. Do we have to wait for the obvious horror stories that are going to come out before we do something about it?

The case in point involved an arrest warrant and a beligerant individual, not a simple traffic stop.

(2,642 posts)7. My understanding of the case...
Was that the strip search was valid in cases where individuals would be placed in the general population of a prison.
Is that understanding incorrect?

so I can save on laxatives.
