The difference between a criminal who says they are not guilty and me is that there is probable cause to suspect the person of the crime before they are treated as a criminal.
As for the recess, etc example, that's irrelevant because recess is not a right.
And we don't take every precaution now because then we would have a police state and no one would have any rights because we all "might be" criminals.
As a side not, I find it **EXTREMELY** sad that someone is arguing that "the constitution is barely followed these days" anyway so that it shouldn't matter.
I guess I should just give up and start working on the Newspeak dictionary right now if that's the position we're supposed to take.
