Supreme Court Ruling Allows Strip-Searches for Any Arrest
(as many times as they want to)
http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/03/us/ju ... fense.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
"...people may be strip-searched after arrests for violating a leash law, driving without a license and failing to pay child support. Citing examples from briefs submitted to the Supreme Court, Justice Breyer wrote that people have been subjected to “the humiliation of a visual strip-search” after being arrested for driving with a noisy muffler, failing to use a turn signal and riding a bicycle without an audible bell."

Rulings need names. And this one should be called "Just In Case You Weren't Convinced Yet".

However, Zimmerman 2 hours after a killing of a 17 yr old is released but don't drive without a license or forget to signal.

The guy needs to lay off the crack pipe but yeah, the ruling is ridiculous.
One correction: the guy in the supreme court case wasn’t the driver of a vehicle he was the passenger. His wife was the driver. Why was a background check even done on this passenger?

This is beyond ridiculous, I wonder if the same rule applies to the furor, I mean president. Wonder if he'd approve of his daughter being strip searched.
