Again per the ABC News video (which I did not see first hand) they were showing up with zip ties in hand, forcing the people to stand on their porch while the houses were searched.

If you had a little warning, you could grab a shovel and dig a hole in the backyard.

I think we all kind of knew that the Constitution is well and good when things are going well but when circumstances hit the fan, I think we can all now have confidence that all bets are off. Plan accordingly.

Yes. I was thinking along a similar line that in this case having simply stored them in a weighted waterproof case (like a Pelican) would put it under the dark water and out of reach of the gun grabbing LEOs.

Time to stock up on ammo.

I don't think that would work. First of all, in this instance I'd think the water table would be too high to bury anything in the back yard. Next, you don't think they're not going to notice some freshly turned dirt? Maybe. Maybe not. IF they suspect the household is pro 2nd Amendment (Hint: NRA Member, gun mag subscriptions, or a CCW Permit not to mention multiple gun registrations Form 4473), that is beyond the normal definition of a "gun owner," they can tote along metal detectors and then it's over for anything in the area. Much better to have an off site cache someplace handy....preferably several caches.
