Answer: it would depend on the situation.

Explanation:

Unfortunately I don’t have enough info on this alone to make a good call but I can give you this...

The police officer doesn’t have the right to improper searches. That being said the officer may ask for consent to look in the car, but if he is not given permission than he cannot without reason. There are some exceptions however. Police dogs for instance are very good at smelling, and although this problem doesn’t specifically say our officer used a dog, a dog could very well have smelled the drugs. If the dog alerted the officer, then he has a right to search the car. Ultimately I can’t be sure but this is what I will say. The officer was in the wrong. What the man had in his car was plenty illegal (in most states, assuming he went to court would say it was illegal in this one) but regardless he shouldn’t have had his stuff browsed by the officer. The court case would most likely favor the man as he would probably win saying the officer didn’t ask for consent. He still would most likely end up in prison for possession of illegal narcotics and the officer could face a punishment like being fired. Hope it helps.

Was the Mexican-American war justified? Your product should be an essay.
steposvetlana [31]

The United States-Mexico War partially abides by this principle. Although the United States and Mexico wished to resolve the territorial dispute peacefully, the two nations resorted to the use of force. The United States sent an envoy, John Slidell, to Mexico in order to annex Texas, New Mexico, and California diplomatically. However, the Mexican government refused to accept the envoy since the public was against Texas annexation to the United States. Although Mexico warned the United States that Texas annexation would be a "declaration of war," the American government signed an annexation treaty with Texas in 1846, which caused the Mexicans to use military force to protect its territorial integrity. Therefore, the Mexican-American war could have been prevented had the United States regarded the Mexican admonitions seriously.

Hope this helps!!!!!!

What are some social contributions of Asia
marta [7]

They are a positive demonstration of how to treat your elders w respect.  The unproven yet popularly believed invention of karate was a very positive social influence, as it not only teaches a sport, but manners, etiquette, self esteem, respect for others, & many more qualities I feel are important socially. They have produced many great musicians who have contributed to classical music.
