'probable cause' means an officer cannot stop you or search you or your belongings without knowledge of an actual crime happening. An example one of my constitutional law instructors used was if you were looking for something the size of a tv you could not look in a night stand drawer and find drugs and arrest the person for having drugs.
'due process' in the context of the United States, refers to how and why laws are enforced. It applies to all persons making everybody equal, example you cannot try someone for murder because they said they wanted someone dead.
'speedy' trail means to have an even smooth flow, no unnecessary delays.
If you look up you might just glimpse my point sailing waaaayyy over your head - it's pretty high though so you probably won't see it.
You're attempt to throw some bullshit and hope it sticks is just plain stupid. What I posted is not above you, how would you know anything about American law if you never had to deal with it? Kind of reminds me, you never ask a person what a filet mignon taste like when all they eat is bologna.
...a bit like trying to have an intelligent discussion with someone that simply doesn't possess the tools.
If your argument is that you can't have any understanding of something without personal experience then that's going to limit your conversation even more isn't it - when was the the last time you were in Egypt?
Tell me, if the application of the constitution is so clear in all situations why the need for constitutional lawyers and courts?
