Just curious--what did the government jackboots do if someone didn't answer their door? We know the citizens weren't given time to get dressed or put on their slippers.

A startling home-made video now shows the terrifying moments where Watertown residents were forced out of their homes at gunpoint as SWAT teams performed door-to-door searches as they hunted the second marathon bomber. While millions of Bostonians waited in their houses on Friday during the city-wide lockdown, the people of Watertown were faced with SWAT officers yelling at them to get out of the buildings immediately.

I expected him to start muttering ‘imagined tyranny’ any moment because I was so sure that he was actually Harry Reid. ;-)
“There was no hot pursuit, they had no idea where #2 was until a citizen called them on the telephone. “
Ain’t that a fact, dragnet2. Some guy taking an evil smoke break found No. 2 terrorist.
One guy puffing a cigar = finding one terrorist.
10,000 cops searching for one terrorist = the terrorist slipping through the dragnet.

This was very similar to the sort of search we've had for escaped prisoners from the nearby prison (now closed down).
Remember, the only guy who'd be really concerned with a warrentless search would be the criminal ~ and I"m sorry, nobody there was hiding him in the basement ~ they didn't want him around.
****”They weren’t “FORCED” out of their homes at gunpoint......they were asked to leave their homes and were personally escorted by law enforcement officials for their own protection........”
BS
Anyone that “asks” me like that is asking for something else
They never caught him at that time muwiwa!
They didn’t have a clue where he was...It’s why they started mass wholesale door to door searches of private residences.
You’re funnier than a barrel of monkey’s.
Stormtroopers boot you out of your home, and only "criminals" would really be concerned? Really???
Let's talk about how efficient and effective it was to treat the Watertown citizens like criminals until the gestapo stormtroopers decided they couldn't find a 113 lb. teenager.
Tabasco ... I have never done this on FR before and it may get me banned.
YOU ARE THE MOST IGNORANT PIECE OF EXCREMENT SHORT OF OBAMA on the entire Planet
Drop dead tomorrow and not a tear will be shed by me and you can forget about Prayers as well.
ASSHAT!
funny I don’t feel any better, scum like you just suck the life out of people
TT
We need more information before we get into that territory.
Remember, at FR we do not support criminal home invasions.
you are stupider than a box of rocks. they knew which way he headed.
Even searching one house would be illegal unless in hot pursuit or any evidence or even a police hunch brought them there. More than one just proves the illegality.

Definitely illegal
Remember, the only guy who'd be really concerned with a warrentless search would be the criminal
Dead wrong. The criminal would get free protection from the ACLU and every bit of evidence gathered illegally would be tossed. Homeowners would get nothing.
Are you saying all those people left their homes because they had been invaded by others? Who are these invaders?
This was't the guy the Bill of Rights was designed to protect ~ this is the guy who wants to be a tyrant. The Bill of Rights was designed to protect us from him!
Who cares what they think; I know what I saw, and I don't need anyone to "explain" it to me.
Go interview them. Until we find out what those people have to say you’ve got nothing! The video, without testimony from those involved is little more than hayseed propaganda!
Word on the street is that NO ONE IS COMPLAINING. That means what tyou saw isn’t what you saw ~
i suspect you don’t quite understand how this works.
Completely wrong. Lots of criminal cases are jeopardized due to illegal searches. Convictions for murder tossed because cops went into a residence illegally and didn't have any other evidence, only the illegally gathered evidence.
This was't the guy the Bill of Rights was designed to protect ~ this is the guy who wants to be a tyrant. The Bill of Rights was designed to protect us from him!
Wrong again.
What the hell do you think this thread is?
Not many complaints in Britain where they are mostly disarmed but have a higher violent crime rate than here. They just get used to it.
