You're a cop and you make a drug bust at a club. You make several other busts at clubs. Would it be reasonable to believe that clubs have higher chance of being a place where drugs are found? And that you allocate resources accordingly to clubs because that's more likely place? And that people who frequent these clubs voluntarily have higher chance of associating with drug deals and whatnot?
You put yourself under suspicion moment you choose to associate yourself with certain groups, no matter how innocent or guilty you are.
Unless you're a complete numpty potatohead, you know there are drugs at clubs. So by agreeing to go to clubs, you put yourself voluntarily under suspicions. |
reasonable means they smell booze on your breathe, or there is a smell of weed coming from your car, or the cops caught you in a lie. NOT being in a certain public place. So if im driving through a shady neighbourhood at 5 am do the police have reasonable ground to pull me over and search my car? I dont think so!!!
