thank you. i guess i failed to make this point eloquently as you did. this is exactly the problem, and happens every day.
(edit: just because you comply with a warrant does not make it a legal request. similarly just because an officer tells you to empty your pockets, search your car, or ask revealing questions are legally obligated with compliance. when you comply, that is what makes it legal. grr, i need to go calm down some place :D)
