4. "The failure to adequately define "reasonable suspicion"
This is where the strength of the argument will rest to shut this down, and hopefully asap.

*continued here: also subjects the law to what might be called the "Papers, please" line of attack. Under the Fourth Amendment, police officers can't simply stop people on the street and force them to answer questions. Instead, policemen can generally detain people only if there are specific and objective facts that suggest criminal activity is afoot.
