HILLSBORO, Ohio —U.S. Marshals stormed a home and arrested a man believing he had drugs and guns Thursday morning in Hillsboro.

The only problem was that marshals had the wrong man and even the wrong house.

Nicholas Brown was making breakfast for his three children and getting ready for work when a dozen armed marshals barged into his home and arrested him for offenses he said he never committed.

Were that the case, you would have given a rational answer long before now.

As it is, you have not, and it is clear that you cannot, without further alienating other Freepers.

[Altariel]

But but but....haven't you considered that those poor, misunderstood government thugs just want to get home to their families?

(No? Oh well....)

I suppose you're one of those cold-hearted conservatives who has at least one assault doberman.

If somebody starts bashing my door in, I’m gonna knee-jerk react.

I figure once the dancin' is done I can sort out the cops from the robbers.

“badge bunny”??

LOL

Ad hominem is the last refuge of a loser.

[Salamander]

Yep.

IMO, today’s LEOs should stop watching so much TV.

The nearby town cops got themselves a SWAT vehicle a couple years back.

They haul that thing out for just about everything, now.

It’s a bit comical.

"Were that the case, you would have given a rational answer long before now."

You merely lack cognitive comprehensive skills. You and the others I alienate.

[Enterprise]

And I longer care.

[Enterprise]

"You do realize the implications of this, do you not?"

Yes. I realize you spent a lot of time riding to and from school on the short bus.

"Why should an American citizen—whether he/she goes by “Eaker”, “Salamander”, “John Connor” or any other moniker"

Ok - Why should an American Citizen - whether he/she goes by the name of Richard Reid, Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn etc. ...

There is a huge irony all the posters have missed here.

The "bad" thing was that the Marshalls came to the wrong house, and arrested the wrong guy when the warrant said he was "black." But thanks to this clerical error, he was released, although the article doesn't give a time frame. However, if there had not been this error, and the warrant listed him as "white," he would still be in jail.

Somewhere out there, is someone with this guy's name, DOB, and SSN who is wanted on drug and gun charges. And evidently, he is "white."

[Altariel]

I always knew you lived dangerously.

Just think of the children you are jeopardizing with such a dangerous dog.

Almost as bad as those fiendish Jack Russell Terrorists. :)

[Altariel]

I had to chuckle. Eventually, he/she may figure out the literary reference.

But long before that, he might actually figure out why innocent Americans should NOT be forced to determine whether they have government thugs or common criminals at their door.

[Altariel]

“The “bad” thing was that the Marshalls came to the wrong house, and arrested the wrong guy”

Your sentence should have ended here.

But, you will almost certainly be one of those who continues to support and defend such criminal actions on the part of The Agents of the State, until it is you and yours who are directly affected.

Just remember: useful idiots historically are rather expendable at the whim of their “betters”.

Choose your loyalties wisely.

[Enterprise]

Please explain what was done in a criminal manner by anyone in the Marshall’s Office or the Franklin County investigating agency.

[Altariel]

Oh obtuse one, read the sentence again: "“The “bad” thing was that the Marshalls came to the wrong house, and arrested the wrong guy”"

Just remember:

[Lazamataz]

Typical badge bunny response.

I call them 'copsuckers'.

[Salamander]

Really don’t mind if he sits this one out.
