So what if you arent doing anything wrong and the cops come in and illegally search your house, ripping things apart, pointing guns in your family's faces etc? Would you not give a shit then?? Search warrants exist for a reason. It's to prevent malicious activity by those who are meant to serve us. Remember that cops are human too, and they are corruptable just as we all are. This is why we need to maintain rules under the charter (which is a flawed document in itself but its all we have right now) in our society for everyone including the police themselves. A country where the police have absolute power is not a country i want to live in. My family came to this country precisely to get away from that kind of society.

by all records, police states aren't very pleasant places to live in |
And the more that people accept this behaviour, the worse it will get.
Sometimes i really fear for our great country because due to selfishness, it doesnt seem that people really care about principles that are designed to ensure our society operates as it should.
People are too focused on whats in it for them in the short term. Policies like illegal search will come back and bite you even if "you arent doing anything wrong." Eventually the laws will change so that you are doing something wrong. Or, if there are no judicial laws, it may be hard to prove that you are innocent even when you are. After all, if police arent forced to follow the law, they can do anything they please while you are still contrained to the laws placed on you in the judicial system. Hardly seems fair does it?
Also, there is a funny thing about laws.... often they are designed to force you to do something wrong such as artificial speed limits and parking restrictions. Of course this happens not for "your safety" but to make money. What if this carries over into other more serious aspects of governmental law? (which it has but thats another jerry springer show)
