"Wiretap" refers to ... ( 5 months ago by RSRNV)
"Wiretap" refers to just that, taping a phone and is regulated under Federal wiretap laws such as the Omni Bus Crime Act, Title 3 . This situation didn't occur in PA which recently enacted a State no-record the cops law (which hasn't been tested through the courts yet ). PA law is of no consequence where this ytube tape was shot. Just because someone was arrested doesn't mean the will be convicted.
You are calling ... ( 5 months ago by RSRNV)
You are calling recording a in person conversation Wiretap, that is and never was covered under Federal wiretap laws. Officials and police threaten all sorts of stuff. Recently I was told by 4 officers that I would be arrested if I "failed to comply" I laughed and walked away. Don't be bullied out of your rights. An arrest is nothing I have been arrested for exercising my constitutionally protected rights twice. No convictions, two small cash settlements. Police are totally ignorant of law.

This guy handing out the shirts has his heart in the right place but by the same token, if you refuse Amtrak their right to search the goods you're bringing aboard their train, they have the right NOT to allow you transport aboard their trains.

yeah but amtrak shouldn't be cooperating with the DEA and the DEA shouldn't have the authority either way
Amtrak has the ... ( 4 months ago by mi6QBranch)
Amtrak has the right to cooperate with any Federal agency. I see nothing wrong with them searching me when boarding their trains. I for one feel safer. It's no more illegal than the TSA searching you at the Airport.
Maybe if their weren't any terrorist's in the world, we wouldn't have to take such measures.

some of the public transport systems set up by federal programs are obligated to cooperate, by some lines in their contracts. rarely, though. but always get a lawyer as soon as possible to find out if they do or don't

4:54 is perfect to serve the agents with responsibility for their illegal actions, which they claim are protected by company rules, which can be found unconstitutional (sometimes only by the Supreme court, but by whatever route necessary)

You are giving up your rights for so called security.

The DEA is taking DRUGS off the street.s
If you don't have anything to hide, then what do you care if you are searched??
TONS of drugs are carried on Amtrak, I take Amtrak all the time and I love the DEA.
KEEP SEARCHING THOSE TRAINS!!
**IF you don't have anything to hide, then you shouldn't care!! **
Pillsbury09 that is ... ( 3 months ago by HerbJay4us)
Pillsbury09 that is a silly arguement. So just because you have nothing to hide it's ok for the Government to conduct ILLEGAL searches. They are breaking the law by searc hing witout cause. If the person they are searching breaks the law they are held accountable, but the governemnt isn't. I guess you would allow them to do an anal cavity search as well, I mean hey you have nothing to hide right?

You, Anton; are an unmitigated idiot. You need to actually READ the fourth amendment. However your reply is not surprising upon seeing that you live in California.
It does not matter ... ( 2 months ago by WindsorFox)
It does not matter what good they may or may not do, law enforcement CAN NOT violate the Constitution. You do NOT have to consent to a warrantless search without being arrested and an officer has to have probable cause to do that. I determine from this most recent response that you are either a child, or you are working with limited mental faculties, I therefore end this tiff. It is quite plain to me that you are someone who does not deserve the freedom which is offered in this country.
I am terribly sorry ... ( 2 months ago by WindsorFox)
I am terribly sorry sweetcheecks, but of all the wonderful freedoms provided by our Constitution the possession and use of illegal drugs is not a member. When you enter an airport, you are under a secure area, you can be searched without a warrant. You were searched in customs, not immigration and when you go through customs you may be searched. Especially coming from where marijuana is legal. It's also highly possible the dog was cleaner than you were. I find people like you very disturbing.
Actually, the ... ( 2 months ago by cannabistv)
Actually, the Constitution reserves all non-specific authority to the states and individuals. In 1919 Congress had to amend the Constitution to prohibit alcohol.
The Founding Fathers were concerned about precedents set by authority.
As Justice Brandeis said, "Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the governments purposes are beneficial. The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding".

I'm a 50+ white male Protestant. I wear my hair as short as I did when I was active duty in the Marine Corps. Married, 3 kids. Church member. I don't use drugs: hell, I don't even drink alcohol. I ride Amtrak regularly.
And I'd never-EVER-consent to a warrentless search by ANY cop. By denying permission to these DEA clowns to search my property, I'm upholding the greatest of conservative values: the right to be left alone and protection from arbitrary government intrusion.

This is really too easy:
