Sorry, my sarcasam mechanisim is due for a tune up - I was being sarcastic
(that's why I said "parrot")
There once was a time when out-of-state cars weighed down on the NJ turnpike
were able to be stopped and searched for running (drugs|cigarrettes|guns)
across state lines... No the troopers need other reasons...
To be clear - I am for profiling, despite the best efforts of the various
organizations and politicians to convince me otherwise...
