The problem with not voting for the lesser evil is that none of the parties actually represent my view point. You have your two major parties, but most of the other parties have to distinguish themselves from the major parties. In doing this, in my opinion, I find they make themselves to fringe and extreme in view point, to the point that they no longer represent what I am looking for.

Take the Libertarian Party for instance... Here is their platform: "As Libertarians, we seek a world of liberty; a world in which all individuals are sovereign over their own lives and no one is forced to sacrifice his or her values for the benefit of others". This is how I read it, if i want to be nice and help other people, you will let me, but the government will have no place in helping people, because we collect taxes, that would thus be forcing you to help other people. Sorry, but for myself, this is a non-starter, and I thus avoid any of their candidates. Which is too bad, because I think there are some merits to some of the beliefs that they do hold.

So, as much as I don't like either of the two parties, I like the other parties even less.

What defines reasonable suspicion? Sure I will eventually get released, but does that matter? And do not try to distract me from my point by asking me if I live in Arizona or if I realized that I can be arrested by the Feds.

My point is that this is an open ended law that can ensnare anyone a police officer feels is suspicious. And the key word above is feels. That is all he needs to haul me in. Oh, sorry, were my suspicions wrong? So sorry, you can go and you have no recourse in the case of harassment.

What you maybe missing is that I, a legal citizen of the US, can be detAined for some nebulous good reason. And if I don't have my id or whatever paper work proving i am a citizen, they can detain me till it is straightened out. I should not have to worry about being asked for my papers because I wanted to walk down the street.
