The law isn't meant to protect criminals. FYI.

And if they don't find anything illegal they can just plant something so you can be found guilty anyway!

Are you talking former criminals? Like random searches? Or just going to someones house and searching at random? This is a serious invasion of privacy.

No. The protections in criminal law are intended to protect those who would be unjustifiably detained, inconvenienced, or oppressed by the state.

But the thing that cracks me up here is when people get all mad that a criminal was caught due to a perceived procedural overstep by the state. Assuming they are actually criminals, why would you mind that the state overstepped if the only result was to catch a criminal? The reason I mind is because we can't reward the state for overstepping. because then they might overstep other times when they shouldn't. believing the person shouldn't have been caught or that they didn't deserve to be punished because of the overstep is retarded. And shows the kind of shallow thinking that causes most of our problems. For you to deserve to rule yourself you should have given sufficient thought to these issues not to look like an idiot.

The only thing would be a few links on my computer, browsing history, and probably stuff in my internet cache.

Laws against having "illegal stuff" shouldn't exist anyways. A criminal, to me, is someone who commits an act that hurts or impacts someone else.

If you have child porn your collection has hurt others. I find your simplistic world view frightening.
