We know that they had a warrant, supported by probable cause or it wouldn’t have been issued, and that they knocked and announced.
Have we sunk to the point where we praise criminals who violate the law and condemn officers who follow the Constitution to the letter?
“We know that they had a warrant”
The word of that was posted as I was typing my post. I hadn’t read that yet.
“We know that they had a warrant, supported by probable cause or it wouldnt have been issued...”
I know nothing about this story at all. Could be that this was someone who should be behind bars. Could be the cops are 100% correct here. I do know the above statement is pretty naive. In our current police state if cops want inside your home they’re coming inside your home. Probable cause? Please.
No we aren’t praising the criminal the person in question is a suspect till proven guilty & the folks who went after him are Federal Law Enforcement Officers .
They are folks who have lied in the past, falsified evidence,concealed exculpitory evidence because the ends justify the means to some of them .
Therefore trusting in the honesty ,integrity & constitutional fideleity of the aforementioned Federal Law Enforcement agents is something a great many folks have a problem doing.
Now if govt agents who are less than honest& I include Judges, U.S. Attorneys,Federal LEO’s would actually be dealt with as you or I would be dealt with for breaking the law then this problem of lack of trust in the integrity ,Honesty & Constitotional Fidelity would not exist.
Yes. There are a few that do.
Sad.
