Of course where you asked, was a crime committed, I could have said “yes” and left a one word answer. 😂

From the article: "The American Red Cross has maps and guides for migrants to make the dangerous journeys to the U.S.-Mexico border, according to documents exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. The map, which is part of a packet stamped with the International Committee of the Red Cross and American Red Cross logos, shows a list of resources, including hotels, clinics and shelters where migrants can get support in Mexico and Central America. The maps include clearly defined lines leading to cities along the U.S. border. The organization also has a guide to “self care” along the journey, which includes tips on how to survive the desert and disease, how to safely jump on trains, and how to obtain contraceptives. The U.S. government tasks the American Red Cross, whose logo is on the guide for migrants south of the border, with allocating millions of dollars in taxpayer funds to support illegal migrants released into the country. The American Red Cross sits on the board of the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Food and Shelter Program and is tasked with allocating funding to nongovernmental groups supporting the illegal migrants. The FEMA program received $350 million from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in February; the American Red Cross is tasked, along with other NGOs, with allocating some of those funds to support migrants after they’ve crossed the southern border and are processed with a court date. The organization is not only facilitating help for illegal migrants in the U.S., but appears to be helping migrants make their journeys far south of the border. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has recorded a record surge in illegal migration at the southern border, where federal authorities encountered more than 2.3 million migrants in fiscal year 2022 and more than 870,000 between October and January.

USA vs Japan About to start

I do not care about ERA. I care about wins. Missouri 10 runs with 6 HR’s, 7-3 9th inning choke vs St Louis, followed by a 1st and 10 th inning choke. I would say the past 3 games have had poor pitching by the Cards

Yes. I don’t think he will pitch this year. May come back and hit, but not sure yet. They could use his bat.

One of my favorite Baxter moments was when he took a caller one morning and asked her if she had a broken fridge or freezer on her porch. She said, well yes I do. Then he asked if she had a old broken down car or truck out in her yard. She said yes we do. Gordon promptly said, "I bet you are from Vidor". The lady said yes, how did you know? The rest is history.

Technically a paragraph, right?

I don’t know all about it, but I’m fairly sure it may have to meet some sort of State standards. Which is OK. But the Feds constantly butting in on these matters STILL violates the 10 Amendment to the Constitution.

That would be correct… except change reasonable to probable. Reasonable Suspicion allows a forced detention but not an arrest or search. Probable Cause (PC) is justification for a search or arrest. It comes down to what is reasonable and probable as I mentioned under the Fourth Amendment. SCOTUS ruled way back in 1925 that with PC, there is no warrant requirement for a readily mobile vehicle. If PC exists, the vehicle can be searched. Basically there is no such thing as a warrant requirement on a traffic stop. It is from the case of Carroll v US which has come to be known as the Carroll Doctrine. [Hidden Content] While PC is required, the justification is that a vehicle by its very nature is an exigent circumstance. This is under the 4A requirement that a search not be unreasonable, as it says…. “against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated”. In the opinion of SCOTUS it is not reasonable to get a warrant and come back 3 hours later and hope the evidence and/or vehicle will still be there. A couple of subsequent rulings narrowed the exception to a warrant if it was a locked container. You could seize a container if needed and later get a warrant. That idea was again overturned by SCOTUS in CA v. Acevedo. In Acevedo SCOTUS did away with the multiple question decisions and circumstances like you can search a car but can a container be seized for a warrant, etc. They ruled finally clarified that if PC exists, anything in the vehicle can be searched including a locked container. Certainly PC is critical like always, even with a warrant. A forced search with PC can only allow searching a reasonable area. So if the police are looking for a full sized machine gun, there would be no justification for looking in the console or glove box of the vehicle. A machine gun will not fit. If they have PC to look for the tiny rock form of cocaine, they can look practically anywhere. As they say in the police academy, you can’t look for the elephant in the bread box. [Hidden Content]

That’s what she said…
