As far as giving conset to search, who will be in control of the video\audio of you not giving consent to the search? There ya go, the cops word is golden in court, all he has to say is you did give consent, done and over with.
Your meals will be dished out to you the next 10 years and for exercise you get to turn large rocks into little ones. All for saying no.

Gafred99,
I am a bit confused. What makes no sense? Are you refering to Sailingdog's post about consent to search? As far as I know consent to search by the USCG on the water is different than dirt side by cops searching your car. The USCG have much broader powers. Or are you refering to Regan's proclamation? Could you please clarify? I know this issue is a minefield and I certainly don't have all the answers.

John
