Legal Police Home Invasions

My Fellow Christian: THE FOURTH AMENDMENT IS UNDER SEIGE! Fox News' Judge Andrew Napolitano reported that the Supreme Court has given police the right to invade your home on a whim. The U.S. Supreme Court has set a frightening legal precedent that expands the powers of government and erases citizens' rights and freedoms that were established by our Founding Fathers. In the Supreme Court's ruling on Kentucky v. King, the Court gave law enforcement officials the authority to enter your home without obtaining a search warrant, in expanded circumstances! The purpose of the Fourth Amendment is to protect citizens' privacy and property rights; but the Supreme Court's decision now allows authorities to violate those rights, and to stage a search and seizure of property without obtaining a warrant from a judge. RIGHT NOW, our protection against unreasonable search and seizure is in jeopardy! This ruling annihilates the Fourth Amendment and gives police the authority to enter your home without obtaining a warrant from a judge. CLICK HERE to FAX every member of Congress to tell them to enact legislation that supersedes the Supreme Court's ruling which dismantles your Constitutional right to be protected from unlawful searches. THIS ISSUE AFFECTS EVERYONE! The Fourth Amendment was written to protect us from police excess and police mistakes. In lieu of presenting their evidence to a neutral magistrate, police officers may now knock, listen, and then, a nanosecond later, break the door down, never mind that they had ample time to obtain a warrant. The "government has denied property and privacy rights in deference to making the job of the police easier," Judge Andrew Napolitano said on FOX News. "Why would we let our own government do to us, what we fought a revolution 230 years ago..." to stop this type of tyrannical abuse? NAPOLITANO: "SAFETY WITHOUT LIBERTY IS TYRANNY." The warrant requirement ranks among the fundamental distinctions between our form of government, where officers are under the law and the police-state where they are the law. In no quarter does the Fourth Amendment apply with greater force than in our homes, our most private space which, for centuries, has been regarded as entitled to special protection. NO CHECKS AND BALANCES! We are in the middle of a crisis, and our Constitution is at stake! Law-abiding citizens will now have to live in fear of the government - with every single knock at the door! "The Fourth Amendment of the Constitution guarantees the right to be left alone," Judge Napolitano added. "It requires that the government can only come on to private property without the consent of the occupant, if it has a search warrant. And search warrants may only be issued by judges, and judges may only issue search warrants after they have found probable cause of a crime on the property." But with the Supreme Court's ruling, the Fourth Amendment has been trampled on and everything has changed! Police will no longer be required to obtain a search warrant from a judge before they can lawfully enter a residence. This ruling annihilates the Fourth Amendment and gives police the authority to enter your home without obtaining a warrant from a judge. CLICK HERE to FAX every member of Congress to tell them to enact legislation that supersedes the Supreme Court's ruling which dismantles your Constitutional right to be protected from unlawful searches. THIS ISSUE AFFECTS EVERYONE! No one is safe! This ruling is the IMMEDIATE REVOCATION of our private property rights. Every American is adversely impacted by this inane Supreme Court ruling. "Rather than placing more pressure on police to stay in line with the Constitution, the court places the weight of proving constitutional rights on citizens," The Seattle Times reports. "The ruling leaves the Constitution's protection against warrantless searches as a symbolic right, easily sidestepped in practice by police. This leaves the law too open to the interpretation of law-enforcement personnel." The Fourth Amendment was established to protect citizens from government encroachment and to ensure that law enforcement protect the residents in their communities without violating citizens' privacy rights. How secure are you if a police officer can knock on your door and enter your homes without a warrant? Consider what Indiana residents are going through after their State Supreme Court ruled that police can enter private property at any time --- without a warrant, without suspicion, without reason. Justice Steven David wrote that the Barnes v. State of Indiana decision ruled that "the common law right to resist a police officer illegally entering a home no longer exists." "A boundary has been crossed, and we're not just going to tolerate it," Sean Shepard said to a reporter for the Northwest Indiana Times. "As citizens, it's our job to be ever-vigilant against our government." This is not a Red state or Blue state issue. The erosion of our Fourth Amendment affects every resident of every state who simply wants the government to respect their freedom and their rights. THE TIME TO ACT IS NOW! If the Supreme Court can rule against the Fourth Amendment, then it is just a matter of time before they rule against the First and Second Amendments! THIS IS NOT A PARTISAN ISSUE! The Supreme Court's ruling infringes upon every Americans' Fourth Amendment rights. Congress must act IMMEDIATELY and pass a law to supersede the Supreme Court's ruling! FAX every member of Congress - Democrats, Republicans and Independents - and tell them it is imperative to TAKE ACTION...NOW! Sincerely, Jon Christian Ryter Christian Response Alerts P. S.
