aka: Burglary of your home, Car break-in, Your bedroom getting searched by someone (Parents/Roomates/Housemates/ or even Burglars), Your Backpack, Personal Electronics/Phone/Computer/etc getting searched, etc. (Including any seaches by law enforcrment / security)

Basically, anything that can be considered “personal space”.

Why I ask?

Well… My parent’s car has signs of being searched through last night, I think they forgot to close the windows all the way, and some random thief got in and looking for valuables, nothing of value wa taken, but stuff were all over the car, now I hate the idea of getting into that car again (someone might’ve slept inside the car, blegh 😖). That car feels so “tainted” now.

Like this cant be only my feeling right? Like, you just feel disgusted after someone touch your things against your will (especially if they are strangers).

    I had my car searched at school after the drug dogs hit on the Claritin D in my front seat. I was more pissed than anything (partly because they picked flakes of “weed” out of my floorboards with tweezers and sent me to alternative school for 19 weeks).

      Wow, same thing happened to me 20 years ago in Texas. I was suspended for a seed they found in the ashtray.

        They were making an example of me, even though the school handbook (which is what they legally have to follow) said the max was 6 weeks. I couldn’t go to my senior prom because it would have been criminal trespassing.

        The best part is that we were appealing the decision, and right before our school board meeting my mom got a call saying that if we didn’t stop appealing, the flakes of weed would turn into 2oz (felony).

        Oh, I forgot. The husband of the wife who made the threat, who was one of the school board members and hated me, was the person who’s hand I had to shake to get my diploma. (they also tried to prevent me from walking)

        But yeah, gotta love small town texas.
