1) Many people are looking to weaken the Miranda ruling and the
   exclusionary rule because, in practice, they benefit real criminals
   rather than protect innocent people.

2) The primary reason for most states raising their drinking ages
   is that the freedom for that age group to drink has resulted in a
   significant increase in drunk driving problems.  I don't feel that
   raising the drinking age is one of the best solutions, but I can't
   think of a more effective one.

5) I believe that anyone who does not wear seatbelts is being foolish.
   Moreover, in most states, driving a car is a priviledge, not a
   right.  This means governments can place "reasonable" restrictions
   on driving.  Because most people refuse to wear seatbelts, new cars
   are being required to have airbags and other passive restraints.
