I'm not one of those guys who belligerently argue with law enforcement officers but this is a dangerous line of thought. There was a comment on reddit awhile back that really solidified my opinion on the argument.

Privacy exists for a reason, it is protected for a reason in this country all the way back to the founding of the U.S. with specific provisions to protect communication methods and personal property of the day.

Now that communication and property have become much more complex we are struggling to redefine those protections, rolling over and allowing a select few to determine what happens to the vast majority is asking for problems.
