Ordering millions of Bostonians to stay inside their homes on “lockdown” (a term that comes to us from PRISONS, btw) took their millions of eyes out of the hunt. 10,000 armed paramilitary “police” never did find the perp after a full day of aggressive searching

Yet 1/2 hour AFTER the “lockdown” was lifted, a CIVILIAN found the perp hiding in his backyard. If the civilian had not been locked in his house by police orders, he would have checked his yard 14 hours earlier, and found the perp early in the morning, and saved Boston from “lockdown.”

BTW, what law or right did the police have to tell millions of free, innocent Americans to stay in their homes? “Lockdown” is what the guards do to unruly inmates in our PRISONS. When did America become a virtual PRISON anytime the police decide?

What right did the police have to do aggressive warrantless “home invasion” searches, dragging Americans outside like criminals? Do the actions of the paramilitary “police” in Boston bother you at all?

Preppers’ PING!!

Some of us may have to rethink our plans to bug in during SHTF.

The order has been given for “The USA to look exactly like the rest of the world.”

This was even referenced on Sundays (Yesterday’s) programs.

Bothers the hell out of me, but apparently it didn't bother the sheep who live in Boston. I saw the loud baaing when they caught the guy. Are the people there really that brainwashed? Or is it just the MSM is supressing anything that shows the government in an unfavorable light? The best part of all of this is that the Boston brown shirts DIDN'T cath the bomber with their gestapo tactics.

You've probably already seen this I find this extremely disturbing. I kept thinking "Juden die Hand heben und herauskommen, nehmen wir Sie in ein Arbeitslager"

Did the police ask people for permission to search or did they say we’re coming in?

As best as I can understand the others, the suggestion is that the police:

1. Should not have requested the people to shelter in place.

2. Should not have gone door to door contacting the citizens.

Letting tens of thousands of people roam around the area of the search would have made it harder still to find Joker and needlessly put those people at heightened risk of injury or death. And not going house to house would be a gift to a fugitive on the loose. He merely has to enter a house and tie up the occupants until the police leave.

As best as I can tell, had the police done as some of the posters suggested, Joker would have gotten away. The boat owner, not wanting to "shelter in place" could just have likely left the area and would not have checked the back yard.

I do support the police if they ask people to stay inside when someone like this is on the loose. Frankly, it is something I would do anyway. And I support the police going house to house to contact the citizens. There is nothing unconstitutional about that. Absent exigent circumstances, I do not support having the police enter the houses without their permission.

Wasn’t all this crap setup by the recent Defense Authorization Act? You know, the one that declared the entire USA is a battlefield, and that the authorities can nab you and detain you indefinitely without the benefit of a lawyer?

So now they don’t even have to declare Martial Law. They just do whatever Homeland Security wants - It’s a Police State, and the Police have been defacto/actual militarized.
