Most states have laws that mandate the notice and that is therefore Constitutional by definition. For example, in California:
California’s “Knock -Notice” Rule
Before an officer may execute a California search warrant at a person’s home (or possibly his/her business), the officer must
knock on the door,
announce him/herself as a law enforcement officer,
inform the occupant that he/she has a search warrant, and
give the occupant enough time to open the door.
Go read the Federalist Papers and see what problems the Founders had with searches. But I doubt you would see the light.
People v. Macioce, (1987) 197 Cal.App.3d 262, 271 (”The purposes and policies supporting the ‘knock-notice’ rules are fourfold: (1) the protection of the privacy of the individual in his home; (2) the protection of innocent persons present on the premises; (3) the prevention of situations which are conducive to violent confrontations between the occupant and individuals who enter his home without proper notice; and (4) the protection of police who might be injured by a startled and fearful householder.”)
Again, that’s California but I’d be amazed if equivalent case law did not exist in Georgia.
“Most states have laws that mandate the notice and that is therefore Constitutional by definition. For example, in California:”
But they still conduct the raid so fast, you have almost no response time to understand and react.
It is still, “Bam, police!” and then guns pointed at you, all within a second. That is their idea of flipping ‘notice’. You get less than a second. It still boils down to anyone can yell ‘police’.
