Thank you Scott Randolph!

I'm surprised that Roberts, Scalia, and Thomas dissented in this case. I usually agree with them more than the other justices. As a supporter of the entire Bill of Rights, I am very happy to hear about this decision. Although I don't think I have anything illegal in my house, I wouldn't want to have to persuade a babysitter or guest or anyone else in my house to refuse to consent to a search of my house, as most people, my wife and kids included, are not as likely to stand up to police officers who are pushing the boundaries of their authority, and are more likely to be intimidated than I.
