So the Supreme Court has decided that it is acceptable for police officers to enter your residence (with a warrant) without notification, without knocking, and without the traditional "Police! Open up!". The focus of this decision was to make it easier to obtain illicit evidence, and reduce the possibility of a police officer violating your rights and thereby spoiling a case against you. This panel of silver-spooned shitbags, and trust me wealth has prevented these assholes from ever even meeting a police officer, cited increasing police professionalism as a major reason to slacken the restrictions on what type of evidence gathering is admissable in court. What is most interesting about this justification is that the ONLY thing that has possibly contributed to some subtle increase in "police professionalism" is the fact that they've learned a sloppy search can lead to a guilty person going free. Take away the possibility of an officer ruining his case and this supposed air of "professionalism" (a supposition that is decidely uncited in the report) dematerializes immediately. How is it that the brightest minds in legal thought can't understand the cause-and-effect of precendents set down by the institution they're representing. This case reeks of racism to me, and the self-righteous retardness of 6 people that have all been skull-fucked by the devil to achieve their status.
I can tell you this: as a fairly nonviolent person I would shoot a cop that kicked my door in without knocking. And I would go to jail for it. And that would be fine.
At some point this shit has to stop, but I have no idea what to do about it. Our country is being fucking ruined by the second. THIS IS WHY THE SUPREME COURT NOMINATIONS WERE SUCH A BIG DEAL. WE ARE ALL GOING TO BE IN JAIL BEFORE THIS IS OVER
I know a lot of inidivuals will respond with the by now classic retort: "But if you're not doing anything wrong, then you have nothing to worry about." This is utter shit, on the face of it. We are virtually ALL law breakers. How long before the RIAA begins to lobby for it's increasingly strict ideals to be enforced by law, how many of you smoke pot, how many of you are 20 and have beer in the fridge. Of course it goes beyond that, because when combined with the more startling information that our communications are also being tracked and monitored its growing more obvious by the day that this is no longer a free country. That means a revolution, though maybe still a generation or two away, is nearing. How easily will it be supressed when the telecoms are willing to hand over our communication, the moral majority is willing to hand over their children for questioning the almighty Bush, and they can kick in your door without even asking. We need to burn this place to the fucking ground and start over.
End Rant.
