The Supreme Court is deciding whether or not to allow police officers to go through the phones of people they arrest without a warrant.

I am against it not only because it invades privacy, but also because if this were to be allowed then it opens the door for something else and it again being justified with "for your safety" or "to fight terrorism". It is all ready bad enough that some cops are out here are looking for anything and everything to get you with. I believe that police should only be able to search a cell phone if there is a warrant, and warrants are granted if there is probable cause. There is no need to search my cell phone for speeding down 95.
What are your thoughts?
