“The police surrounded the St. Paul house where they were meeting even though they had no warrant, told them that anyone who exited the house would be arrested, and then — even though they finally, after several hours, obtained a warrant only for the house next door — basically broke into the house, pointed weapons at everyone inside, handcuffed them, searched the house, and then left.”

OK, here’s my idea. I think we need to organize like crazy, it has to be the number one goal of all activist and political parties across the spectrum. Our goal is to amend the constitution so that our houses, bodies, papers or effects (like laptops, phones, etc.) cannot be searched or seized unless a warrant has been issued stating the probable cause for the search (i.e. the crime that was committed), and the item of person that needs to be seized.

There should be a law against the capricious behavior of enforcement agencies who can break into your home without accusing you of any crime, and take your stuff just because they want to.

There’s more about these raids here.
