Columnist Walter E. Williams on Click it or ticket Imagine you're having a backyard barbeque. A cop walks in and announces, "This is a random health and safety check to see whether you've removed the skin from the chicken before you served it."

We're Under Attack: Senators Push Hard for Federal Primary Seatbelt Bill Senators John Warner (R-VA), Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) and Mike DeWine (R-OH) support passage of the National Highway Safety Act of 2003, which requires states to raise their seat belt usage rate to 90% or enact a primary seat belt law within three years.
