[Immerito]

Courage isn’t the absence of fear, but the mastery of fear. He mastered his fear and said the right thing. He was in a new, unfamiliar, potentially lethal situation and he did well.

Hopefully he’ll soon join FR and learn how to be better prepared.

They were refused entry and they left. Isn't that the way it's supposed to work?

Yes, unfortunately, many who do resist wind up with dead dogs, fatal injuries and a lot of government-issued casings laying around.

[Clinging Bitterly]

Yeah I don't get why the DEA thugs came as they did in this case. A couple years ago a bunch of Stimulus marshalls were out & about helping local cops do warrant sweeps in various places. A couple of them came to my place in Oregon looking for someone I happen to know, had a short conversation about who, what, where, then asked to come inside & check.

“Got a search warrant?”

“No.”

“Then you can't come in.”

“Well, if (subject person) isn't here, then surely...”

“You are on private property and you have 30 seconds to get lost.”

“We'll be back.”

“No you won't.”

And they left & never came back.

[Impy]

Good for this couple for asserting (and knowing) their rights, a lot of people would just be afraid and let the cops in to mess up their house looking for the phantom drug dealer.
