My Russian grandmother shared stories of her first impressions of communism. The first one she tells is of public officials (namely police) broke into her farmhouse and took the few nice things she had. Items such as a nice dress and shoes for her daughter to wear to church on Sundays. They announced proudly “ These things are no longer yours. They belong to the People!” and took anything of value. Is that what we have to look forward to?

Maybe. But it really has nothing to do with this. This is common sense, actually. It’s on the other side of “the line”. Now, if it can be proven the cops KNEW they were entering illegally, that is a different matter. But they are saying the homeowner can not be judge and jury on such a matter. It needs to go to court. And I still think you can sue the pants off them if something bad happens. Look at Seattle and that trigger happy cop that shot the derelict.
