[QUOTE="Tinpot, post: 1708755, member: 35836"]It shouldn't have been, they were probably just trying to get the people to bow down to their authority (which they probably just did). Because who is going to pay a lawyer thousands of dollars just to prove they are correct? The courts/law enforcement get away with doing tons of illegal stuff this very way, most people can't afford or don't want to deal with the hassle of taking them to court over it. For example the speeding tickets given out by cameras may well be unconstitutional, but I don't think this has been brought to court yet.
