"Personally, the portion of the law that I would contest is if officers can
do it indiscriminately. In general, the law should require that no officer
can ever detain anybody at any time, unless the officer has a "damn good
reason". This would include (a) a warrant, or (b) probable cause."

Observation: On the way home Sunday night after my last three trips to the
San Diego National Tour in March ('01, '00, and '99), on I-15, there has
been a road block slowing all northbound traffic to a crawl.
Each lane advances toward a Highway Patrol officer who eyeballs
each vehicle's occupants. Nothing is said. And then we're on our way.
