I have been thinking on the issue of search and seizure.

The story is that the police searched the boat but found nothing. Later the owner saw blood and the suspect and called the cops.

If the cops actually found the suspect but were conducting an unauthorized search, did they need the owner to find him to insure hs rights against search were not violated?

The Waterton house to house was a massive warrantless search operation. What would have happened if someone requested a warrant? Was the initial warrantless search of the boat the forbidden tree from which the fruit would require the capture to be illegal?

More like the Keystone cops missed the fact that the tarp was cut.

Everyone is praising all the LEO’s but guess what?

The FBI knew about these guys and did nothing.

The bomb investigation went nowhere until the pictures were released and the bombers got tangled up in a convenience store robbery.

They expend hundreds of rounds of ammo in the direction of the perps and kill neither.

They let one drive away after the initial contact.

They conduct a massive dragnet and miss the perp until a homeowner tells them where he is.

All the while we are treated to images of LEO’s clad in stormtrooper black exhibiting horrible muzzle control while they crap themselves everytime a dog barks.

I say we demilitarize the police and stop disarming citizens.
