Answer from: romet31

Pretext stop

Explanation:

A police officer may have reasonable suspicion to stop a driver but actually has some other motivation for the stop. The police officer may believe that a driver is involved in a drug ring and use a minor traffic violation to justify stopping him or her. The law enforcement officer may use the stop as a pretext to search the vehicle for drugs or other evidence of the crime. The United States Supreme Court has held that a pretextual stop is considered a legal stop so long as the traffic stop is legal at its inception ad was supported on an objectively reasonable basis.

Hamlet's fourth soliloquy is probably his most famous one - "to be or not to be."it is rather different from his previous soliloquies because now he is contemplating something that didn't come up before - suicide. he is thinking whether it is worth it to fight to find his father's murderer when in the end all of them are going to die, so why not die sooner than later. he is contemplating if he should go on fighting or just kill himself and end it all, which is why this soliloquy in particular is rather depressing, hesitant, and gives a deeper insight into hamlet's madness.
