re: Lying to cops should only be a crime if you are under oath

I could cite you to the governing authority on each of those points, but you would just refuse to read it. If you DID read it, you would not understand it.

Why?

I hate to repeat myself, but you are an imbecile.

Personally, I do not think that it is good public policy to allow LEOs to lie to suspects, but that is NOT the question presented in this discussion. Unfortunately, there is also nothing in the text of the Constitution (that pesky Strict Constructionism again) which PROHIBITS the state from lying to a criminal suspect in all circumstances. I would explain the reasons for this, but (again) we both know that you would not understand the explanation, because you are an imbecile.
