OUR NEW POLICE STATE Is your home safe from unlawful police entry? A recent Supreme Court decision now gives police the authority to enter your home without obtaining a search warrant, in expanded circumstances...but the police do have to knock, first, before they break down your door. The Court ruled on Kentucky v. King that law enforcement have the authority to stage a search and seizure of Americans' property without obtaining a warrant from a judge. In this case, police violated the Fourth Amendment when officers invaded the wrong home during a search for a suspect. After busting through the wrong door, police found illegal drugs in the home, which they discovered by error, and without first obtaining a search warrant from a judge. It doesn't matter that the apartment they mistakingly invaded was that of a person conducting a criminal act - this ruling has repercussions that adversely affect all Americans, including law-abiding citizens, like you ... because THIS SINGLE DECISION by the U.S. Supreme Court HAS STRIPPED EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN OF THEIR FOURTH AMENDMENT PROTECTIONS! And in Indiana, the State Supreme Court ruled in Barnes v. State of Indiana that police can enter a resident's private property at any time - without a warrant, without suspicion, without reason - and without knocking and announcing their presence! So if you live in Indiana, law enforcement has every right to enter your home right now if they feel like it! IS YOUR STATE NEXT?? Our freedoms are being eroded, and we are losing our rights. Sadly, Americans are no longer protected against unwarranted search and seizure! CLICK HERE to SEND FAXES to every member of Congress to DEMAND that they pass a law that will protect Americans' Fourth Amendment rights! Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution: The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. The Obama administration is systematically dismantling your Fourth Amendment rights: GPS tracking: Right now, police have the ability to tap into your cell phone, smart phone, laptop and navigation device to track your every move, and they can do this without obtaining a warrant. Last year, the Justice Department argued that warrantless tracking is permitted because Americans enjoy no "reasonable expectation of privacy" in their-- or at least their cell phones' -- whereabouts. Department of Homeland Security (DHS): The DHS recently released a series of terrorist-watch videos "See Something, Say Something" that effectively tell Americans to spy on each other. These video clips depict Americans as terror threats, and then advise citizens to report the behaviors of their fellow citizens. Transportation and Security -

when the Supreme Court sidelines our constitutional rights, and we lose the protection of the Fourth Amemdment, we progressivly lose all that is great and different about America. there is a progressive eroding of all our rights over the years, but most aggressively over the last three years of this administration. only Congress can overturn the Supremem Court interpretations. Stand up for our rights, your are our elected officials representing our state and nation.REPORT COMMENTS

Elected Officials, Why are you trying to destroy our Country? Why are abusing and defying Our Constitution? Why are you NOT upholding your Oaths of Office? Why are you Aiding and Abetting Obama and all of his Appointees who commit Treasonous offenses on day to weekly basis? Why are you NOT removing, Obama, the Usurper from the office of the Presidency along with his appointees? Why are you continuously by this Aiding and Abetting committing Treasonous Offenses against our Great Country? So, Why are you so hateful and abusive to your country and your Fellow Americans? Why do you continue to place bills on the floor of the Senate and The House that are unconstitutional? They should never be allowed on the floors of the Senate and the House for a vote, much less be passed? Your actions are beyond despicable, deplorable, and unpatriotic. So, now we have the Fourth Amendment that is being violated throughout our States.....so what are you going to do about this terrible and abusive, act against your Fellow Americans and all future Generations? YES, OUR PATIENCE IS RUNNING VERY THIN....WE ARE DEPRESSED, DISTRESSED AND DISGUSTED BEYOND ANY WORDS THAT COULD RIGHTFULLY EXPLAIN OUR FEELINGS...TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE TO RIGHT YOUR WRONGS.....PROTECT AND DEFEND OUR CONSTITUTION NO MATTER THE SITUATION OR CIRCUMSTANCE.......IF YOU CANNOT ABIDE BY OUR CONSTITUTIONAL LAW THEN YOU MUST RESIGN....OUR COUNTRY DESERVES ONLY ELECTED OFFICIALS WHO ADMIRE AND LOVE AND ARE LOYAL TO OUR COUNTRY AND ITS CONSTITUTION. SO WHAT SAY YOU? "ON GOD WE TRUST"REPORT COMMENTS
