Legislators paying attention

    Do we need to tone down the police state, or encourage it to go full speed ahead?
    Police decision makers should have to consider the possibility of lawful resistance in planning a raid. They should not have automatic, up front, exoneration by law for any attacks they’re planning to carry out. The law should not be that whatever the government does is right. There needs to be balance, or police assault teams will be attacking us as they please with no restraint in advance, and no accountability under the law afterwards either.

  2. Standard Mischief Says:

    Cool, now they can backup that non-binding resolution with a new law that actually has some teeth – that is, if they’re not just posturing.

  3. Bubblehead Les Says:

    So the other 10 Senators need to be Outed and Voted into retirement, eh? Someone tell Tam, Turk, Bobbie X, Brigid, Farmer Frank, et.al. to spread the word about those who support Death Squads in Indiana.

    How about some legislation that severely limits “no-knock” warrants and the use of SWAT for routine police work?

    If a uniformed police officer knocks on my door and shows a warrant, I’ll crate the dog, the door will be opened wide and I will step aside. (I’ll also immediately call my lawyer if they haven’t cuffed me.)

    If a couple of ninja’s bust down my door at 3am, they get shot.

    I can hardly wait to Vote Out Justice Steven H. David!

  6. Erik Says:

    SWAT teams should be part of the National Guard, and police should be required to go to the governor to get permission to use them. No-knock warrants should be incredibly rare–so rare that they’re hardly ever used.

    Bram,

    That’s what Jose Guerena thought.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
