If there were ways of collecting flushed items before they hit the main line, these raids could be eliminated.

No because you don't understand the reason for the "raids" in the first place. It has nothing to do with evidence.

Their purpose is to terrorize the American citizenry, make us feel unsafe, make us feel controlled and helpless, and demonstrate that they can kill us whenever they want with impunity (so far).

The police are the equivalent of the Gestapo. Period.
