So, Do We Need a Betting Pool?

SCoTUS, the Supreme Court of the United States, in its attempt to keep us wrapped up in wool and tucked in with our bear, has decided that strip searches are reasonable for traffic tickets, walking a dog off-leash and overly noisy mufflers. This is a HUGE decision, as at least ten states currently forbid by law strip searches for minor violations.

How long do you think this will last, and what high profile person do you think will be grabbed by a cop, mouth off, and end up strip-searched?

I heard on NPR that one of the lower court judges actually cited this section in ruling for the defendant!

I'm afraid that SCotUS really stepped in this one.
