As much as people whine about what cops do now, it would be exponentially worse if we also had individual officers deciding on their own what was Constitutional and what wasn't.
Newsflash: Police officer discretion, the single most dynamic part of law enforcement, isn't written into the Constitution.

That and the Constitution has little relevance given the incredible bulk of standing local, state and federal laws in existence.

Anybody that mentions the fucking Constitution in a 2011 RKBA debate might as well wear a "Don't Tread On Me" t-shirt.

Edit:

The opposite side of the coin:
