Where are our rights against search and seizure?

Vatic Note: I believe our problem is, we, in the USA, had never had to really face or deal with a "GESTAPO" mentality in this nation as a nationwide phenomena. Certainly its happened as a specific and unique incidence on various occasions but then the news of it would blast across the country at just such a mentality by our occasional overzealous cop.... but that has changed. Instead of the problem being a rogue cop out of control, we are now dealing with a rogue new philosophy of gestapo tactics in all things, and out of control, as MANDATED by "ZE HOMELAND ZECURITY" VIA SPLC AND THE ADL and as evidenced by the TSA's criminal sexual assaults in  handling of not only airport security, but also reaching into other areas of transportation and gathering events just as sports events and malls. Notice all law enforcement and homeland security wear black just like the SS Storm Troopers did in Nazi Germany. Well, what a coincidence, or is it? Remember, it was the zionist international bankers who gave rise to Hitler and funded, planned, organized and helped to bring to fruition their long held plan to world domination over other nations and over the goyim. Remember, there were 150,000 Zionists that served in the Nazi Military, the SS were the secret police that did the famous phrase "YOUR PAPERS PLEAZE!". If we take a serious look at who wrote the protocols (Rothschild and the 13 bloodlines) and who the bankers are internationally who are doing this, then we discover these are the same people. They have pervaded our government through deception and used our openness to all nationalities, religions and cultures as a cover to infiltrate and literally take over and occupy our nation. This below, that we are seeing, is reflective of their mentality, tactics, strategy and nazism that they practice in their own country. They have simply imported it to our nation and used our wealth, technology, military, intel services, etc to repress our native population and done so internationally  to other countries as well, starting with GREAT BRITIAN (the most racist country in their leadership, on the planet) who has cooperated fully with these lizards. Now its imported to America. So, the question is, when are we going to make it stop??? WE CAN, YOU KNOW! We do have the power to stop all this. Do we have the will????

Tuesday, April 26, 6 a.m. Everyone is asleep.

Those in the main part of the house are jolted awake by repeated shouting, loud banging and bell-ringing at the front door. “POLICE!” “WARRANT!”

Two small Vietnamese women in the front bedroom, barely a month in the country, frightened, confused, fearing for their lives, are thinking “robber” or “terrorist.” A young South American man, not understanding the words, thinking “emergency,” gets up and runs to open the front door.

“When I opened it, a policeman pushed me against the wall while he was handling a gun, he pointed (at) me and made me turn around and put my hands in my back,” the young man says.

Several officers, guns drawn, rush in. Other residents are collected and also handcuffed.

One resident attempts to explain that the two women in the front bedroom are not fluent in English. Ignoring what was said, or perhaps just not listening, several men force the locked door open.

“They pointed guns at us. Then they ordered us to put our hands up and checked us,” says one. “I was in fear of my life. I felt very cold and tired because I was two months pregnant.

“After that, both of us were handcuffed. They ordered me to sit on the floor. We were taken into the living room. At that moment I knew that those men around us were police. There were about eight or nine policemen.”

Though the officers are told he also was not fluent in English, a Vietnamese man in the back part of the house is punched several times on the back of the head, after he is face down on the floor, hands behind him. The entire house is ransacked.

Three days later, the pregnant woman suffers a miscarriage.  (VN: This is a basis for a law suit and at that point we will see if the courts are gone as well.  If so, we must then create our own justice system and enforce it, we can begin with the top criminals,  the zionist mafia bankers, and move down into the law enforcement ranks to ensure all criminal laws are followed by these mercenaries).

Is this a typical SWAT raid for drugs, undocumented immigrants or both, taking place in a “crime-ridden,” poverty-stricken area? No!

The incident described above occurred in a quiet, family-oriented neighborhood right here in Davis. Most residents of the house are either visiting international scholars or students, or American citizens who are students. No drug dealers. No “illegal immigrants.”

No one offering the slightest resistance, unless cowering in fear or closing a door for protection from an as-yet-unidentified police officer who is presumed to be a robber constitutes “resistance.” No one has been arrested or charged with any crime.

The raid was by seven to 12 federal agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement, one of several agencies under the umbrella of the Department of Homeland Security. The warrant, shown to only one of the residents after most of the search had been conducted, was not for drugs or “illegals,” or any persons, but for items and records that “might” contain reference to a specific website, images of child pornography, or evidence of distribution or transmission of such images across international borders, which explains why ICE is involved.

Signed the previous morning, the agents had two weeks to execute the warrant based on what I was led to believe involved an alleged transmission and/or website visit that occurred more than a year ago.

Only one of the current residents had lived there longer than seven months. All of that person’s computer-related devices along with other items were confiscated.

Incidentally, the first time that person saw the warrant was when they were handed it with an attached list of items confiscated (unverified by the owner) when the search was completed.

During the search, agents thought it “necessary” to damage another door with a battering ram, and demolish a solid core door, locked on the side they were on. No reference to this damage has been made to the me, owner of the house, either verbally or written, even though two agents spoke with me, outside the house, at the scene.

As the owner of the house, I have a list of questions, as do the residents.

In a situation where the alleged “inciting incident” for the warrant occurred more than a year ago, why wasn’t time taken to gather more information about who might be currently living in the house? I assume ICE has access to top-notch intelligence gathering.

As owner of the house, and living next door, I could have provided information about who was currently living there, for how long, and could have facilitated entry into the house.

Do the facts justify forced entry at gunpoint and the detainment by handcuffing of terrified, non-resisting, innocent-until-proven-guilty people? Do the facts justify the risk of people being shot and possibly killed?

Who pays for psychological counseling for severely traumatized people? Who pays for the damage to the house? Are these injuries and damage simply considered “collateral damage”?

Prior to the search, must the search warrant be shown to each person whose property is to be searched? Is it necessary to ascertain whether those affected by the search understand what is occurring?

If one’s property is seized, is one permitted to verify the list as accurate? If not, is accuracy verified by another agent? Are agents required to sign for confiscated property?

Due to the fact that the warrant does not mention people, does the forced detainment and/or the manner in which the search was conducted constitute a violation of the Fourth Amendment which says in part, “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures shall not be violated …”?

This callous use of abusive force by the ICE agents must be questioned and reviewed to help prevent needless violence and injuries to innocent persons in the future. Our democracy  (CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC) requires no less.

— Linda Clark is a Davis resident. She has filed a formal complaint with the Department of Homeland Security and ICE, and sent copies to a variety of agencies and government officials. The chancellor’s office at UC Davis has been in contact with the San Francisco ICE Office of Professional Responsibility and the Vietnamese Consulate in San Francisco, Clark says.
