Whoa... hold on just one friggin minute.

I agree with just about everything said in the bulleted list, with the exception of a big question mark on hiding your stuff in a straw (I know cops check that shit, especially when it comes to meth), but I utterly disagree with the last bullet.

The suggestion that one should give up their 4th Amendment right, saying it's nice in theory but not in practice, is utter BS. To refuse or NOT consent to a search is your Constitutional Right, and for him to outwardly advise you to give up that right has to be nothing more than that good old cop in him still talking. NO, NO, NO... NEVER give up your rights EVEN if you are not carrying anything illegal!!!!!!!! There ARE other reason's besides being guilty of carrying something illegal that one would not want a cop searching their vehicle.

The guy has some good pointers, but on that last one, he can plant a big kiss on both of my butt cheeks!
