No Surprise From the Supremes

That the only justice who thought that it was just peachy to strip-search kids on a whim was Clarence Thomas.

A ruling that the people ordering an illegal search cannot be held personally accountable is, to my mind, toothless. But I'll have to read it to see if the press reports are close to accurate.

UPDATE: They got it wrong. The immunity applies only to these guys, because the law, in the view of the majority, was not clear enough. But it's clear enough now.
