There was no raid. They knocked on the door and demanded to see the guns. The homeowner was on the speakerphone with his attorney who said they would need a warrant. They never saw the guns.

Not that this does not really pi$$ me off, but this was not what most people would see as a “raid”.

By the time the father returned to his home, the “authorities” were in his home pressing to search.

He refused the search, as you should have.

Use of the word “raid” is out of place, a raid is pre-planned and they have a warrant.

This incident was clearly not-pre-planned and didn’t have a warrant.

All they had was a social worker with the vapors. . .and I BET, SHE IS ANOTHER ONE OF HOLDER’S/OBAMA’S PEOPLE.
