Liberal Ninth Circuit Rules Government can GPS Track you Without a Warrant


THe U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit is the most liberal Federal Court in the country. They have made very scary ruling that shreds Americans Fourth Amendment rights. Let's hope this one makes it to the Supreme Court and gets overturned quickly.

Time Reported:
Government agents can sneak onto your property in the middle of the night, put a GPS device on the bottom of your car and keep track of everywhere you go. This doesn’t violate your Fourth Amendment rights, because you do not have any reasonable expectation of privacy in your own driveway – and no reasonable expectation that the government isn’t tracking your movements.

That is the bizarre – and scary – rule that now applies in California and eight other Western states. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, which covers this vast jurisdiction, recently decided the government can monitor you in this way virtually anytime it wants – with no need for a search warrant.

Guess you have to get one of those mirrors attached to a pole and look underneath your car everytime you go for a drive! Next, they'll want to attach them to your ankle, YIKES! Our freedoms are being shredder faster than obummer can shred the constitution.

The entire ninth circuit should be impeached and replaced.
