Supreme Court Sickos OK Strip Searches For ANY Arrest, Say State Can Sniff All Your Body Holes No Touching Or Licking

       Tuesday, 3 April 2012, WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Ninth Amendment reminds faithful readers worldwide including certain members of the US Supreme Court please to avoid strip search searches by refraining from READING FREE UNLIMITED NEW YORK TIMES DIGITAL CONTENT SIMPLY BY SETTING READERS' FREE  FIREFOX BROWSERS TO "PRIVATE BROWSING". The Court in a hectic week surprised no one by now also issuing a decision contrary to a large majority of the Circuit courts that the State even with the safeguards of frisks, x-rays, and hoisting suspects upside down with a chain also may strip search persons arrested for anything including violating leash laws and lawn watering restrictions.
       The Ninth Amendment senses discouragement from over 200 million e-mails sent us by certain quarters that the Court, believed to be suffering from some new ultravirulent form of malignant dementia, brain fungus or rot, senility, and delusion but still able to groom themselves and speak (other than Justice Thomas), as it ravenously attacks any case before it that offers any opportunity to obliterate the last shreds of Americans' rights with nonsensical arguments and pithy factual examples based on no known reality. The Court thus has haphazardly obliterated the compact with the people that the US Constitution embodies.
       The well-known fact for the day is the marginally sometimes true conventional wisdom that "the glass can be called half-empty or half-full" especially if its packaging is produced by most major American corporations, or alternatively, "it all depends upon how you look at it" unless you have say just been run over by a monster Waste Management garbage truck which next then backs up over your head, neck and chest with the required "beeping" warning.
       Our point is that these sorts of little affronts to the Constitution such as the Court now finding it "reasonable" under the 4th Amendment for persons arrested for acts that would possibly have gotten you a "warning" back in grade school or even if just arrested by sloppy mistake as in the case at hand to justify a total-body strip search with government officials up close sniffing (but not touching) you and lingering around your body holes as they stare at your private parts in front of everyone yelling to "spread them" is no cause for anything such as say "armed revolution".
     Think positive and even if you really do not enjoy parading around naked with police real close staring at you all over inside and out, pretend to yourself that you do. Imagine that this is how you would be spending the evening anyway. Especially if you are Mr. Justice Thomas (who reportedly did have to be physically restrained in the Court's famous closed-door conference when he became over-excited and attempted to act out the Court's written opinion,) In any case voila problem solved, though you probably should not get carried away and let this get you TOO excited as there is always time for that in one's more private time should one be so inclined and not all the representatives of the State may be so similarly oriented possibly leading to some kind of unfortunate misunderstanding.
        As in they "suspected" you maybe are hiding an AK-47 or something in there and made a "furtive gesture". (Police like to tell creative stories like that in court if you are still alive to keep your future interesting.) No just take it easy and think of the rare opportunity to cavort naked with State officials as a gift. Well the Ninth Amendment editorial staff believes we may have been up for a few too many days now and hope anyway as we sign off this might have been a useful suggestion. God Bless America.
       The comment below was submitted by the Ninth Amendment and so far as we know was not one of the 1,500 or so that was published in response to yesterday's front page New York Times latest article on the Court run amok. It here is shared with readers verbatim.            

Ninth Amendment Comment To Times Not Published We Believe

            
The Court at one time at least ostensibly looked for "test" cases with some sympathetic facts say here of others "admitted" to jail [STET?]. Now in this case the man wrongly arrested and strip-searched for outstanding fines he actually already had paid (oops!) was his WIFE'S PASSENGER. The Ninth Amendment log at www.waronnothing.blogspot.com adds this as just another case showing a Court gone mad. Good facts, bad facts, imagined facts, whatever, the Court takes whatever is available ASAP should it suspect a SHRED of a Constitutional right intact such as that pesky 4th Amendment and its "unreasonable" restrictions in seven of the Circuits not allowing strip searches when ARRESTED for leash laws and so on. But really impressive is the Court's meticulous review of the strip policy in light of past experience. Justice Kennedy pointed out that one of the 9/11 hijackers was "pulled over for speeding just two days" before the horrific event. And? Had this latest historic decision been the practice at that time presumably he believes the whole 9/11 horror would be averted as with enough rigorous academic training one sees that the dastardly plan required first driving a couple days first with a carpet cutter stashed you-know-where. The next logical step is the savvy "correctional" official assembling a few simple pieces and averting the sordid history of the world for the next several decades. There again a tried and true technique of Supreme jurisprudence -- hit them with your best shot.

Americans' ACA Health, Welfare and Very Lives in Hands of Single Supreme Court Justice Kennedy? And He Smiles Like a Fool As He Figures Out What "Liberty" Means

       Saturday, 31 March 2012, WASHINGTON, D.C. - Readers routinely reminded not to READ FREE UNLIMITED NEW YORK TIMES' DIGITAL CONTENT SIMPLY BY SETTING FREE FIREFOX BROWSERS TO "PRIVATE BROWSING" by later that year on April Fool's Day that is tomorrow in fact the Times already fired at least one executive over the "gold-plated" tens of million dollar porous "paywall" when it if anyone should have known that for a few million dollars of $100 bills lowered on pallets from helicopters the Times simply could have called Dick "Pig Heart" Cheney on the scrambled Batphone and had his "Blackdeath" boys go door to door to crack some heads and get the message out.
       Speaking of April fools the Ninth Amendment moves on to the Justices haunting the once-hallowed halls of the Supreme Court where now Mr. Justice Thomas must be patted down for pornography or self-pleasure devices before entering the men's rooms out in the public area of the Court. Not to mention his lifetime bar from the women's rooms just like his Republican-expected extremely long lifetime appointment to the bench which he is giving up nohow since no one can make him do any work, and he hears from up there on the bench when he can understand what they are saying down there that it may be kind of hard to get another job in America these days.
       In stark contrast Justice Antonin "Broccoli" Scalia sliding his words and the underclass unfortunate enough to slide legs apart down his razor sharp mind that shared an epiphany long ago that life/death/law it is all just economics. Sure does miss those pals of a similar bent from the University of Chicago school and the Seventh Circuit up there. Too bad Bork could not make the cut in 1987 simply because in his case as well it is not necessary to turn to the opinion to know the result, just the parties and/or the causes. Legal realism, economic style. If you have not got the bucks your "justice" decision on the case is a foregone conclusion. As is Mr. Justice Scalia's here with this what who cares Act rich people can pay for their doctors so how dare the Government tell them how to spend their money and the poor already have emergency rooms dammit.
     The Ninth Amendment previously posted its prediction that the Court just because it found it essentially could ignore the United States Constitution (and that sure turned out to be a stellar idea) and in a day position a man for President  who was not even elected, never to cite THAT decision again, now could take on this one too where the American people already clearly have spoken and having done so may not be so tolerant once again this time to have their and their families and loved ones health, welfare, and lifespans profoundly affected by nine spooks in black robes hiding up behind a bench that really is not that high. We could and did reach right over it as children just to bang the Chief's gavel.

Ninth Amendment Comment Published in Digital New York Times Regarding Mr. Justice Kennedy

    Intellectually stimulating as it may or may not be to focus on the alleged jurisprudence of Mr. Justice Kennedy's apparent fascination with the concept of "liberty" (yes such as allows us to carry firearms in schoolzones) given the occasion of this most momentous week in this Court's history as it publicly considers the constitutionality of the ACA, perhaps we might just consider the shameful reality of the "Greatest Nation on Earth" not even providing basic healthcare for all. The Ninth Amendment log at www.waronnothing.blogspot.com observes that in the Federal Government every government worker gets health insurance from a list of about 100 plans which either play ball and provide reasonable healthcare or simply do not get to be on the list. We assume the Justices have at least similar benefits in addition to special attention wherever when needed. (If Mr. Justice Thomas is unwilling to use his provided mental healthcare but instead sit on the bench for decades manifesting some kind of semi-catatonic stupor, no doubt Mr. Justice Kennedy could find him at "liberty" to do so unless and until Thomas is removed under pertinent provisions of the US Constitution). So assuming the Justices are well aware of this excellent system already in place for millions, why agonize reinventing the wheel over the distracting din of obscenely well-financed biased filthy rich opponents who obviously care of nothing but their bottom line while Americans continue to suffer and die for no reason?
