“because not a lot of harm was done,”
Really?
You legally purchase some firearms. You are sacked out at home and the phone rings. Cops with SWAT are outside. You are ordered outside where you get cuffed and stuffed and hauled away. They search your house and take your weapons. You are forced into a mental eval.
This guy just got raped by the govt, and you say not a lot of harm was done. I guess he should have just relaxed and enjoyed it, right?
I did not say NO harm was done, but this was not Ruby Ridge or Waco, or numerous other cases where innocent people were killed and coverups to protect the guilty were conducted.
No one was killed. No property was destroyed. His freedom was curtailed for only about 4 hours.
Do I think a real investigation should be done and that he should get some compensation? Yes, but this is nowhere near as bad as many other cases I have seen.
It is a good thing that people are upset about this, it keeps the authorities on their toes.
