If I were a true American and patriotic and a LEO, I’d refuse to follow that order.


But 99% would. Our militarized “Law Enforcement” (an Orwellian term, when you think about it) is the standing army our founders feared.

Hillary/Rudy can just send the patriotic troops overseas, and have the unionized ATF/SWAT goons do the dirty work, helped by every local police and Sheriff’s department with all their federally-funded ninja gear. And 99% will do it to keep all the union benefits, plus the adrenaline bonus

This kind of Gestapo tactics won’t stand up to a legal test. Daley and his thugs have forgotten that this is America, not Nazi Germany or Communist Russia. No doubt this will be overturned, but only after a lengthy legal process.

It’s always easier for law enforcement to go after law-abiding citizens than criminals.

Chicago Mayor Daley declares open season for gun-weilding criminals to prey on his fellow citizens.

And as an added bonus, they can show how active they are getting guns off the street to the PC crowd.

Never give a government any power over you that you wouldn’t grant your worst enemy.

I live in a gun registration state.

I’m not saying whether I have a gun or not but if i did, I would not register it for this reason.

It’s none of the governments business.

“After asking to come inside the man’s home, the trooper asked if the man owned a gun - to which he replied yes.”

Man should have said: “Do I have a Gun? Read the second amendment, and get the hell out of my house or I’m calling my lawyer to sue your department. Resulting, of course, in your healthcare portion YOU have to pay for your family going up, and your co-pays will also go up. Now.....do you have any more questions coming out of your donut receptacle, Fife?

Well, many LEO's are pretty good folk and good folk. They are human like the rest of us.

However, some have no business in law enforcement. About 20% do not competently understand the US Constitution and many of the federal statutes on the books, especially when it comes to illegal immigration and RICO laws. Many just go around like mindless robots looking for the joint smoker, jay-walker, and the speeder selectively enforcing some law, not all the laws because their bosses tell them to ignore certain enforcements because of corruption and PC elected officials.

We hardly ever see cops with enough balls to investigate corruption on their own.

Exactly!! Once again...people fail to know their Constitutional rights if not a felon....especially in your own home.

Every unconstitutional law should be thrown out. The judges that refuse to do so should be impeached. As citizens, it is our duty to demand this.

Only a bit of wisdom here...but I would guess the revolutionary fellows did the same thing....one need only hide their weapons to set the engaged police dimwit back into position. No policeman can enter a house without a warrant. If you don’t invite the guy in...he can’t enter. I doubt if many judges will find logical reasons to hand out search warrants left and right. And to make the cops feel a bit of a dope...I’d have water pistols out and offer them to the dimwit. Of course, I’d have a guy with a camera just around the corner taking picture of the confiscation of my water gun. Looks real good on the internet and TV...and makes fools of the police...which in this case...they richly deserve.
