Re: Had my first encounter with LEO

True enough. If law enforcement want to pull you over, they will find an infraction. Same thing with searches.

Same situation with TX Parks and Wildlife....you got a huntin license....you have given consent to search your vehicle, residence,etc.......at any point, anytime that your license is in effect.
That is so far from the truth. At first I figured those statements were some sort of sarcasm or something. In the 60's, the Supreme Court held that 4th amendment was/is applicable to state/local governments by way of the due process clause of the 14th amendment. There is no probable cause in having a license.
