Murder suspects, etc.

English common law has required law enforcement to knock-and-announce since at least Semayne's case (1604), and in Miller v. United States (1958), the Supreme Court of the United States recognized that police must give notice before making a forced entry.[2] In the U.S. federal criminal law, the rule generally requiring knock-and-announce is codified at 18 U.S.C § 3109.[3]

However, in Wilson v. Arkansas (1995) the Court created an exception to prevent the destruction of evidence and in Hudson v. Michigan (2006) the Court, by a 5–4 vote, held the exclusionary rule does not require the suppression of evidence police seize during an illegal forced entry.[2]

Fugitive warrants are different.

Yes, organized crime was rampant in the 50s.

But sure.

Popularized by the War on Drugs.

Made more ubiquitous by the War on Drugs.

Agreed.

The War on Drugs has not done anything for American citizens civil rights.

no knock warrants have proliferated across Europe without war on drugs too

Except take them.away.

Thought crimez?

anti-terror acts do all that and more

since the late 90s they've been gaining momentum

recently the thought crime aspect is getting very pervasive

So you might be a terrorist if you say anything contrary to the government/ owners narrative?

in Scotland if your kid tells a teacher that daddy things negatively of multiculturalism or is against BLM, etc

that's grounds for arrest

Damn...

that'll make you love the brown shirts... as they're bashing your skull in.

also children can start trans drugs at school without parental consent or even knowledge

that's UK-wide this year, has been the case in Scotland for a few years

Damn...

they are truly picking up pace

unthinkable stuff is the new normal in a couple of years

Wow

In a bad way

Will have to check out when not behind proxy.

@nachik Good morning... You are up awfully early, or is it late?

my sleep pattern is all over the place with the lockdown and the short winter days

@nachik what do the lockdown look like in your area?

@busillis, you just advanced to level 20!

we have like 6 hours of dim light a day in late November and need excuses to get out

can only go out for food nearby since I can work from home

it's no wonder people are very depressed

Do you want to know what it is like in CA or would that be considered me being cruel?

by 5PM it's dark

@nachik what is the percentage of people that are allowed to work outside of the home?

@TaLoN132 what is it like in your area?

I don't really know but it's pretty quiet in Canary Wharf and it used to be extremely busy
