It's certainly NOT thread drift, or anything close to hijack. I'm addressing the issue at hand. Case in point, you're against the Court creating law on their own, but it was impossible to sue a federal agent for damages if they violated your rights until 1972. The Supreme Court in 1972 created that ability on their own, without Congress, in the case of Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Federal Agents. They "set policy" or "made law to do something Congress did not intend."DMF I would sue the Jack boots off that thug!!!!!!!!!

You happy now .....And no one wants to play with you 'cause it is thread drift bordering on thread hijack !!
Again, I think Bivens is a good ruling, but the point is, the Court did precisely what many here are whining about, despite the fact that most (if not all) are like you, and want the ability to sue a federal agent if he/she violates your rights. The same is true of the views on the exclusionary rule, and the "fruit of the poisonous tree" doctrine.
I'm pointing out hypocrisy, and people don't "want to play," because they know I'm right.
