When police serve a warrant, if they have a warrant, most are acquired using unscrupulous means or are completely unnecessary. But that is not the half of it, as the manner in which they are served these days is more akin to what would have happened in Nazi Germany by the SS.
Most all warrants are served by war like military units called SWAT teams. These teams are dressed in black, usually with faces hidden, wearing armor and sporting automatic weapons. In many cases now, they also arrive in armor plated tank like vehicles. Remember, ignorant Americans believe that they live in the freest country on earth, when in fact they live in a full blown police state.
Radley Balko just reported in the Washington Post about a military style raid on the home of an Iowa family. What is interesting about this raid is that the warrant these thugs in state costumes were able to acquire was for credit card fraud, not any violent or dangerous charge. That was really irrelavant anyway, as the owners and residents of the home were not even the targeted individuals. That is insane!
While this was supposed to be the serving of a warrant to search the home, it in fact was a no knock raid where the door was destroyed by a battering ram without any notification to the residents. In addition, the police prosecuting this terroristic raid also destroyed a surveillance camera outside the home and covered another inside the home so that their brutality could remain hidden from view. These are simply paid criminals of the state attempting to keep their crimes secret.
The local news report and video can be seen here.
None of the so-called suspects were in the home, and in fact they do not reside there, and no stolen property was found. It was evident that these police cretins had no sympathy for this family due to their uncalled for actions. Why would they as this is now normal procedure around the country? And certainly, no scrutiny or punisment and no restitution will be forthcoming. Even if a lowly citizen serf was able to sue the police and win, the police would not be responsible for any damages whatsoever, as only the taxpayers would be harmed.
This tyrannical behavior by the state gendarmes will only worsen in the future. These kind of violent raids are now so common that the American slaves are getting used to them. That is a very dangerous precedent to set, and nothing but violence and harm, fatal harm in some cases, can result from these police state actions.
Is self defense an option? Of course it is, and in some cases necessary to protect the lives of family, but the consequences of proper and forceful self defense against police in the U.S. today are dangerous and deadly. A better solution would be to dismantle or eliminate the militarization of these low IQ monsters called police. An even better option would be to abolish the state police forces entirely and depend on private alternatives.
If this type of totalitarianism is allowed to continue, the next step will be martial law. Then it may be too late to recapture any liberty, especially by properly sought after peaceful means.
