I don't know where the government gets off on using "consensual encounters" as a euphemism for 4th Amendment violations.

I watched the institute for justice video about this months ago. If that’s a “consensual encounter” I don’t think that word means what the dea thinks it means.

I forget exactly what the DEA agent was saying, I think I recall him saying that he wasn’t detaining the citizen, who was free to leave, but the bag was detained. Seemed like bullshit from a 95 IQ glorified cop.

It's the next stop after "voluntary income tax system".
