the supreme court tries to limit traffic stops and
it makes the market for drug dogs more attractive. -- j

    If a police officer has probable cause because a citizen said he saw someone commit a crime, that makes sense. The citizen risks criminal charges if it turns out he's lying. If "I thought I saw the dog react to something" constitutes probable cause, we should just dispense with the dogs and admit we've thrown out the 4th Amendment.

    So if the prediction in the article comes true and police order more drug dogs, how long before we admit it aloud and stop wasting money on the dogs?

      wellsir, I take off for the mailbox when our dog barks
      to let me know that the mail carrier has visited. . his
      predictions are in the 90 percent zone. . we used
      explosives dogs at the manhattan project plants
      where I worked for 33 years, and they tested well
      in continued training. . I would rather have them
      than not, when drugs or explosives are the risk. -- j
