Just or Unreasonable? Does the Constitution define . . .

Just or Unreasonable? Does the Constitution define . . .

Yesterday, the Supreme Court ruled on strip searches during any arrest, regardless of the severity of the offense. It was a contiguous 5-4 ruling again pitting liberal justices against Conservative. So the Constitution has been determined to allow the word "reasonable" to include such actions by police in the name of safety to law enforcement and the prison population. While the ruling is not earth shattering it does bring into question the politics of the Supreme Court, which appears to have been established as an impartial arm of government. 

Mankind doesn't really fall into an impartial category no matter how hard we try. Certainly Presidents appoint Justices based on their past rulings and philosophical makeup which is going to support that President's political views. Those appointments are one of the strongest and most enduring actions of the Presidency. 

Can this be changed? Perhaps we should let computers select candidates for the vacancies. After all, they are impartial; provided the programmers are impartial. Ah, back to the original problem!
