The Changing Face of the Police and the Death of the Fourth Amendment

“Now, one of the most essential branches of English liberty is the 
freedom of one’s house. A man’s house is his castle; and while he is 
quiet, he is as well guarded as a prince in his castle. This writ, if it 
should be declared legal, would totally annihilate this privilege. 
Customhouse officers may enter our houses when they please; we are 
commanded to permit their entry. Their menial servants may enter, may 
break locks, bars, and everything in their way; and whether they break 
through malice or revenge, no man, no court can inquire. Bare suspicion 
without oath is sufficient.”—James Otis



In early America, citizens were considered equals with law enforcement 
officials. Authorities were rarely permitted to enter one’s home without 
permission or in a deceitful manner. And it was not uncommon for police 
officers to be held personally liable for trespass when they wrongfully 
invaded a citizen’s home. Unlike today, early Americans could resist 
arrest when a police officer tried to restrain them without proper 
justification or a warrant—which the police had to allow citizens to 
read before arresting them. (Daring to dispute a warrant with a police 
official today who is armed with high-tech military weapons and tasers 
would be nothing short of suicidal.) This clear demand for a right to 
privacy was not a byproduct of simpler times. Much like today, early 
Americans dealt with problems such as petty thievery, murder and attacks 
by foreign enemies. Rather, the demand for privacy stemmed from a 
harbored suspicion of law enforcement officials and the unbridled 
discretion they could abuse.



The Fourth Amendment, which assures that “the right of the people to be 
secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against 
unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated,” was included 
in the Bill of Rights in response to the oppressive way British soldiers 
treated American colonists through their use of “Writs of Assistance.” 
These were court orders that authorized British agents to conduct 
general searches of premises for contraband. The exact nature of the 
materials being sought did not have to be detailed, nor did their 
locations. The powerful new court orders enabled government officials to 
inspect not only shops and warehouses, but also private homes. These 
searches resulted in the violation of many of the colonists’ rights and 
the destruction of much of the colonists’ personal property. It quickly 
became apparent to many colonists that their homes were no longer their 
castles.



Revolutionary patriot James Otis was Advocate-General when the legality 
of these warrants came under question by the colonists. Called upon to 
defend that legality, he promptly resigned his office. After living 
through an age of oppressive policies under the British Empire, those of 
the founding generation, such as Otis, wanted to ensure that Americans 
would never have to face intrusive government measures again.

LIBERALS DENIED THIS SPEECH AND LIED ABOUT THEIR REASONING!

Ann Barnhardt: The Boston Speech.

Hello, my name is Ann Barnhardt and I am the person who says the things that everyone else is too terrified to say.

This is the speech that I was going to deliver in Boston today, May 15, 2011 had a facility been available to me. Unfortunately, no facilities were willing to host my speech, sponsored by Rabbi Jon Hausmann, because I was deemed to be “hateful”, “bigoted” and “potentially violent”. Well, we’ll see about that.

Open Borders = UnemploymentBut guess who runs the Labor Department?

American Patrol Report -- June 3   ~~~ Hilda Solis in 1996 ~~~     In 1996 Hilda Solis told a gathering of the Southwest Voter Registration Project (SVRP) that anyone who makes it across the border is an American. This was not surprising since theSVRP is a hotbed of insurgents seeking the overthrow of the U.S. government in favor of Mexican jurisdiction.     It was also not surprising that Barack Obamanamed Solis as his Labor Secretary, since his political base are cheerleaders for an open border.     But last year, Solis shocked even hardened pols when she used taxpayer money to assist illegal aliens to get a fair wage. "Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz says he wants to know why taxpayers are being asked to spend money to ensure that illegals get assistance for fair wages while millions of unemployed Americans struggle to find jobs."     The President is suing Arizona for trying to protect its citizens against an illegal invasion. OurSecretary of Labor is fighting for the rights of the invaders.

LEARN HOW FISHING INDUSTRY IS BEING RUINED BY OVER-REGULATION

Donald Hank, LAIGLESFORUM, REPORTS:

From a reader:

 

Were you aware that the EU has virtually wiped out the entire UK fishing industry and seriously damaged it in Scotland, as well?  All because of this "catching your quota" rule and throwing back "the wrong fish" - like you can choose what fish you get in your nets! They get fined if caught selling it and often have to sell their boats to pay the huge fines! Most English fishermen now have other jobs and many run pubs. (..an equally hard job, but at least the floor doesn't go up and down! Unless you are "three sheets in the wind" of course! - A nautical term!)

 

The head of the EU Fishing Department is based in central Spain, at least a 1,000 miles from any ocean and they know zilch about the rules they are making.

CONGRESSIONALLY MANDATED LIGHT BULBS ARE DANGEROUS !!!

BRITISH HEALTH AGENCY ISSUES PUBLIC HEALTH
WARNING ON TOXIC CFLs --- WHERE'S THE EPA?
Britain's Health Protection Agency was the first to confirm consumers' claims that exposure to Compact Fluorescent Light Bulbs (CFLs) was making them sick. 

Consumers in the United States, Canada, England and Europe have been complaining about headaches, skin burns, rashes, and neurological problems caused by CFLs because they emit ultraviolet radiation and electrical and magnetic field emissions, or "DIRTY ENERGY." 

Health Canada tested the UV levels in CFLs and has since released a report stating that "some people are extremely sensitive to UV and may be affected by the amount of UV produced." This includes people withautoimmune diseases, such as Lupus, and those who have sensitive skin.
