Just picture it folks: Your 18-year-old daughter can get arrested for a minor traffic infraction, perhaps even because of a computer error, and she can be subjected to repeated invasive strip-searches. Five justices of the U.S. Supreme Court have just ruled that this is perfectly OK.

I look around and see many people in our governmental bodies, the U.S. Supreme Court, the U.S. House of Representatives, our own governor, becoming increasingly inhumane, harsh, cold and cruel.

What sort of country are we living in? What sort of country are we becoming?

It is sad and troubling.
