Neil Gorsuch: “The courts are a very important place for the vindication of civil rights and for minorities.”

Apart from pointing to habitual drunkard laws, the government has not even attempted to prove that any other specific historical principle might justify its prosecution in this case.

That Fourth Amendment test, which the Court invented in 1967, has no basis in the Constitution's text or history.

The Court should ditch those precedents, which he says are indefensible in theory and unworkable in practice.

They targeted different kinds of people, did so for different purposes, and operated in different ways.
