Did the police ask people for permission to search or did they say we’re coming in?
The police show up at Bogart's door very late at night. They have questions. He keeps them out in the hallway, where they don't want to talk. They want to come in. Bogart shakes his head. They can't come in. They ask him to be reasonable. He says they need a warrant. They turn to go.
And then, from inside Bogart's apartment, a woman screams "Help! Help!"
The lead cop looks at Bogart and says, "I guess we're coming in."
Bogart steps aside and says, "I guess you are."
Once upon a time, everyone knew the rules. Today, the government does what it wants.
