The (new) naked truth....
Saw this ruling being discussed on CNN and was dumbfounded. Apparently there is ZERO right to privacy remaining in the United States:
Court ruling on strip searches is unjust
So, let's see....you can be detained indefinitely if you are deemed an "enemy combatant", have your phone tapped or tracked even if you have broken no laws, have your home trashed in a no-knock raid where sometimes they get the address wrong, be suspected of being a drug dealer if you pay for your airplane ticket with cash, be shot to death for walking around in a hoodie, and now you can get strip searched for jaywalking. Not exactly the land of the free I grew up in.
