Warrantless searches and seizures.
The State enforces illegal statutory laws against its citizens by employing thug cops who have no knowledge of the US Constitution and no morals.
The police have become the enemy.
There is NEVER any discussion about stopping the CIA from importing this heroin into our country. The intelligence agencies are totally out of control.

So, 27 folks were hosed down and searched without any result but 3 with a joint or two and a soboxone pill.
Not 47 pounds of narcotics.
Way to "hone in" on those serious drug dealers!!!
LOL!
The funniest part is that the LEO's are so PROUD of this!!!!
If this is all I had to report after such a "raid" I
d be too embarrassed to even say anything!
What an astounding success!
NOT.
How much of OUR money was spent to do this?? In the private sector, where there are consequences for wasting money, someone would be on the street looking for another job. In the public sector, one gets to BRAG about it.
When you play with other people's money, waste is not a concern.
