This had zero urgency. It wasn’t a ticking bomb or a murder or kidnap plot. In truth it was a joke. It was -at best-, a conspiracy to litter.
This is nothing to knock on a door at 10:30 at night.
IF someone had to investigate a plot to litter, that should be done in the daytime. And a threat that he monitors facebook makes him a dirty tyrannical traitor.
If that can be proved up, the “outer” needs to pay bigtime! This nonsense is far too close to “swatting”! Could easily been gunfire in a different setting.
Not at all. When the enforcers death rate approaches 100% over enforcing mask violations, they will stop.
“....NKVD was merely the latest incarnation of the Czar’s secret police. ....”
Far far far more brutal & instrusive then the Okhrana (Czar’s secret police).
Too bad the cop lived.
Neah. It isn’t the cop you want dead.
It’s the fascist bastard that sent him.
You should go to ANY “black guy killed allegedly by white cops” threads on FR and you’ll notice that we have a large contingent of anti-cop freepers. It’s mostly the same bunch. We have a closet=antifa faction here..
Can’t say Joke without saying Joe.
And Joe is just shorthand for Joke.
That’s why jokes are now forbidden.
My door/outside cameras would have recorded the entire encounter with audio......
The deputy would have been given an order of trespass and ordered off the property immediately.....
The next call would have been to my attorney to sue the hell out of the Sheriff’s department...

I disagree. The line between responsible liberty and anarchy is not gray at all.
The one says “leave me be to exercise my liberties” the other says “burn it down so statism can arise unfettered w/o instititionalized norms”.
The government seems to think the latter is “mostly peaceful protest protected by the Boss”, the former is a threat to lives as we know it.
See the tiny difference? About as wide as the Mississippi at NOLA.
Who enforces the govt wink and nod?
Hopefully Contreras will see this as reason enough to dump her FB account.

You get it for free but the quality sucks. You have no say in how it works. The guy who runs it gets rich. There's no real competition. You have no privacy. And if you say one thing they don't like they'll shut you up. |

Good for you. She didn’t have to open the door, right? She could’ve slammed it in his face, right? He had no warrant. And he had no intention of arresting her for a crime. Since she didn’t commit a crime.
Am I confused?
I’m sick of this.
I have developed a simple solution to the masking problem in America and offer my solution for your most serious consideration.
Because of the way nearly everyone, untrained in the effective use of personal protective equipment, selects, applies/seals, wears and maintains a mask, and due to the physical impossibility of nearly every available mask material to capture and control an infinitesimally small virus renders the mask completely ineffective in "slowing the spread of the virus" -- any virus -- I suggest we replace the mask with another of myriad talismans to ward off the Chinese evil covid spirit. A charm or amulet (perhaps containing a powerful symbol or a mystical jewel or monkey bones or another secular religious icon which could be blessed by a local shaman or perhaps a Druid priest for an enhanced level of imagined protection) could be worn conveniently around the neck. Although admittedly not providing the purely psychological relief so very many irrationally-frightened-senseless American "men" and women still require after a year of paralyzing fear of a disease with a 99.9+ percent recovery rate to resume some semblance of normal life, these alternate talismans would provide precisely the same level of virus transmission control afforded by the mask talisman.
Additionally, without the powerful persistent visual reminder of fear, desperation, distrust and anger the mask talisman creates and which has slowed our personal, social and economic recovery to a crawl, these alternate talismans would advance the recovery of our American standard of living to something more akin to a "normal" recovery period following an annual respiratory viral outbreak. This idea would also provide a potentially lucrative business opportunity for investors and businesses to provide an array of talisman products not limited to just the mask talisman ... perhaps even products that would appeal to children in a non-threatening way to reduce the psychological damage caused by the dehumanizing mask our children are forced to wear by their frightened parents which causes unnecessary fear and which retards children's physical and social development skills essential to developing into optimistic and confident adulthood.
My point is that a talisman is a talisman is a talisman, be it a mask, a bead, an amulet, a symbol or, perhaps, even a garlic clove. As none of these talismans have, from a non-politically biased scientific perspective, absolutely no effect on stopping transmission of a virus as the results of a year of forced masking clearly show, why not use a talisman that does not cause physical or psychological harm to individuals -- especially to American children who have already suffered the loss of a year of their childhood as a result of the deliberate actions of politicians, unelected bureaucrats and so many politically-compromised "medical experts" -- and a talisman which does not further damage our fragile society and which does not further crush our economy?
Please note that my idea does not conflict with the incessant mindless mantras we have been subjected to for the past year: "We have a responsibility to each other"; "We're all in this together"; and, the most irritating of all, "Better safe than sorry."
The cop knew it was a joke and the official who sent him knew it was a joke.
This late night visit was an attempt to intimidate in retaliation for her being outspoken at a meeting.
Whoever made the decision to send the cop should be disciplined.
People have to push back against these Stazi tactics!
The police are not on your side. Perhaps you should read about the NKVD before you start yapping about “civility.”
Take out the fascist bastard’s street muscle first.
“They weren’t there to keep her from littering, they were there to send her a message.”
Correct.
However, keep in mind this was Palm Beach County. Not all police are like that by any means.
That said, tyranny will become more prevalent as society sinks into liberalism.
