So then why the fierce opposition from LEOs to the amendment? After all, the amendment is just reiterating the current constraints of the Fourth Amendment. In which case, the amendment should not bother LEOs at all. Yet they're acting like they NEED the amendment stripped because they NEED to randomly stop and detain OC'ers without reasonable suspicion of wrongdoing.
I alluded to this in another thread. Some law enforcement folks see a gray area in court decisions, and specific codified law.
