One warrant shows police were looking for any kind of legal or illegal drugs. The other shows police were looking for a stolen X-Box video game system. No drugs and no stolen games were found--and no one was arrested.

A C.I probably gave the cops the wrong address. This happens more often than you think.

They weren’t looking for a stolen X-Box.

I LOVE dogs, but sorry, when this happens for silly reasons I honestly think the same # of cop dogs should automatically be put down, with the handler present.

Cop work now just “isn’t cool” if they can’t get gussied up in nomex kook gear and hurt innocent people.

When a country fights a long, low-intensity war, soldiers are ordered to act like cops, and the cops gradually begin to act like soldiers.

They are practicing on ordinary citizens. In another year they will be actually shooting the residents of the houses they "mistakenly" raid and they will get paid vacations as rewards for their efforts. This is part of our totalitarian future and it is not the far future.

Civil forfeiture was about many things, but part of it really was also INCENTIVIZATION —if the cops could benefit in some material way from a bust, they’d be energized.

Let’s accept that for just a second:

Why do we NOT incentivize things on the NEGATIVE side?

After they terrorize taxpayers, the people who pay for those errors are.....OTHER taxpayers (who pay for the suit).

Why should incentives work just ONE way? If the cops know OTHER people pay for their error, what incentive do they really have to avoid such errors?

This has been going on for years. They need to be bonded, or put personal assets up as collateral, or consent to have their wives beat up in public, nude —SOMETHING.

There are plenty of good cops but bad cops are now having to pay NOTHING for eggregiously bad behavior.

If a person punches a police horse or dog, then legally it’s the same as punching a policeMAN.

Why, then, are “civvy dogs” then treated as LAB RATS?

There’s something about police officers that I just don’t like—and my only encounters have been with traffic tickets. They’re essentially bullies who love to flout their authority and push people around.

I would bet that police departments hire them for that very reason.

Get used to it.

By obamao's 3rd term this will be a commonplace event for things ranging from overdue parking tickets to discovery that you were formerly a registered republican...

By his 4th term all will be quiet...

Every cop involved, every prosecutor involved, every judge involved, should be publicly identified. With full addresses, phone numbers, emails, etc.

I’m kind of going ‘WTF?’ here. This doesn’t happen much in Iowa, especially out in the boonies like this one. Two warrants? A raid for an X-box, or possibly ‘legal or illegal drugs’? Too vague, too trivial, and the raid is too over-the-top.

There is more to this and I’m kind of wondering exactly what the sheriff is involved in. This sounds like a raid to hush someone up.

his mother was ruffed up

"Ruffed" - displaying or wearing a ruff.

"Ruff" - a neckpiece or collar of lace, lawn, or the like, gathered or drawn into deep, full, regular folds, worn in the 16th and 17th centuries.

"Lawn" - a thin or sheer linen or cotton fabric, either plain or printed

Those cops were pretty talented to have "ruffed up" the woman.
