For every life “ruined by being imprisoned” Alexander puts it, there are lives saved by searches of suspicious people and seizure of their illegal paraphernalia. Search and seizure laws have been around since the beginning of the United States of America, and have a very controversial history.Many deem the way the laws are practiced unconstitutional, and oppressive to minorities, while others think they are just and need to be carried out to stop crime.…

They commit a staggering amount of crimes, take jobs for less than minimum wage that any person on welfare or without a home would take in a heartbeat, and yet some politicians refuse to deport any illegal immigrant while their cities crumble.…
