Kudos to the judge. This is a step in the right direction.
“criminal raid”
Good call.
Of course.
The prosecutor who forwarded the search warrant, and the judge who signed them....need to be named, and put onto the front page of the local paper. This is third-world stuff....what you’d expect out of Bolivia.
Anyone still naive enough to think the USSA is a “free” country?
Even the Free Sh*t Army know better than that.
I believe the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation was exercising 'its warrantless right' to conduct inspections of licensed professionals.
Sorry, I just threw up a little in my mouth.
I do not know the facts of the case but the article indicates that it was a warrantless (illegal) search.
Prolly would have been a blood bath if this had been a dog grooming business.
They should get prison time.
There was no warrant.
+1
I wanna know who signed an affidavit that there was a crime that had been committed and that someone in the barber shop committed it. THAT is the basis of a search warrant. Where is the affidavit??
BWB: Barbering While Black?
“Prolly would have been a blood bath if this had been a dog grooming business.”
LOL!!! Very funny! :-)
The first sentence in the article states it was warrantless raid.
Although technically warrantless is not proper word as written.
Here you have some black men that trained to get a skill, opened their own business and are trying to make an honest living and the P.D. uses SWAT tactics to check licenses? Aren’t there real criminals they should be focusing on? We live in a crazy world. Unless there’s something illegal going on like drug dealing out of the barber shop the cops need to keep their noses out of the regulatory enforcement business IMO...
A camera pointed at the “police-department HMMV” receives an AR-15 point DIRECTLY back!
Chilling...
Tell me, why wouldn’t I immediately fire on this threat to my safety and life?
I believe that the majority of ‘professional licensing’ regulations are not designed to protect the consumer, but rather to benefit licensed professionals by creating a barrier to competition.
