Supreme Court brings us one step closer to a Police State

[DemPGH]

I was prepared for something worse (even though it is NOT burdensome to get a warrant if one is required quickly), but it's the pattern that continues to disturb, and that is that they take nearly every opportunity they get to expand police power beyond limits that have stood for a long time. You have to assert your rights now, for e.g. (when most people are not lawyers, obviously, so many might not know) and it just goes on and on. People could easily be tricked or confused into doing something they shouldn't do because the lines of protection get dimmer and dimmer with every one of these rulings.

This follows the 4th Amendment precedent in a common-sense way.  The police can't really keep track of who has previously objected to a search of their home. 

That said, this is wrongly decided because your Constitutional rights shouldn't be waived by your room-mate. 

You know, though, when something begins with, "We can't be bothered to check," it's not good. NOT good.
