” I guess you support no-knock warrants?

Hey, if someone is breaking the law like TERROISTS, yes they really do exist, I EXPECT them to break down the dam door!”

Actually police use them against citizens based only on word from a paid informant - IE an actual criminal drug addict.

” Property seizure, where property is sold before the defendant is proven guilty?

Hey, if creditors need their money and the idiot is ignoring them SEIZE IT! It has nothing to do with being proven “guilty” . The numbers speak for themselves. Our legal system isn’t as nuts as Ron Paul would like you to believe.”

I was referring to the use of property seizure by police.

Be accused of transporting drugs in your car, they seize and sell it before you go to trial.

” SWAT teams breaking into houses based on anonymous tips from informants, shooting the dog, and giving Grandma a heart attack?

Yeah ... RIGHT ... lay off the DOPE!”

These news stories are posted on FR all the time. One just last month.

I googled and lots came up. Here’s the first. There’s plenty more.

No knock warrant, killin’ granny. Lovely.

” The seizure of cash based on the assumption that anyone carrying enough of it must be a drug dealer?

You really have no clue on how the LAW works ... the more you talk the more I see that ... As if our law enforcement had the resources to be so reckless and never mind about HUGE lawsuits that would ensue ... This is so idiotic!”
