The police obtained a valid arrest warrant for a drug dealer. A reliable informant told the police that the drug dealer was stay

ing at a friend's house until "the heat was off." Without having obtained a search warrant, the police went to the friend's house, knocked on the door, and asked the friend if the drug dealer was there. The friend replied that the drug dealer had been staying at the house for a few days but had left a few hours ago. The police pushed open the door and began searching for the drug dealer. They found him hiding in a closet along with two five-pound bricks of marijuana. They arrested both the drug dealer and the friend. Before his trial for possession of marijuana, the friend moved to suppress the marijuana found in the closet. Should the court grant the motion to suppress?
(A) Yes, because a search warrant was re-quired
(B) Yes, because the police may not execute an arrest warrant at the third party’s home
(C) No, because the police had probable cause to believe that the drug dealer was staying at the friend’s home.
(D) No, because the police had a valid arrest warrant and the marijuana was found incident to the arrest.

<u>Answer: </u>

Yes, the court should grant the motion to suppress as the police had searched for and taken into custody the marijuana bricks without having a search warrant.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • For the action carried out by the police to be deemed as lawful, the police should have a warrant issued by the magistrate.
  • An operation carried out by the police in private property without a warrant is considered as a breach of rights of the individual and can be used against the police.
  • Any property taken into custody by the police without a search warrant can be asked to be suppressed by the defendant.

Is there a such thing as a fair war
horsena [70]
I don't believe it could exist
War could be considered truly fair if both oppositions had the same amount of soldiers, weapons, supplies, tactics, and geographical advantages.
Tere wil always be a difference of these factors in every war, so i don't believe such things as equal war exist.

Now, begin making changes. Remember to meet all of the president’s promises. What were the three largest cuts you made, and why
zzz [600]

Being made president the three cuts i would mare would be in the following areas, taxes, Government spending and cut unnecessary ministries or departments.  

The fist big cut I would make would be tax cuts, the reason for this is the less taxes are charged on the populaiton the more money said population will have to spend on goods and services adn thus circulate in the economy. This would also mean less tax breaks for the wealthly, thus removing their privileges of avoiding taxes through charities.

The second big cut I would make would be in government spending, or more specifically reducing or cutting the salaries of career politicians by 30% to 40%. This is becasue the government with is the largest spender of capital in any given country while being the lowest producer of capital and it is unsustainable to maintain large political salaries. With this cut it would not only alleviate the tax payer, but also free up remaining funds for health and educaiton.

Finally the last cuts I would make would be in the area of departments or ministries. While some such as the department of Agriculture and Interior incompatible and cannot be fused, other such as the departmetn of labour and Treasury can be fused, reducing the number of departments and thus overall government spending again.

These are the three be cuts I would make as President.
