Also, Amendment 9, Article 6, a violation of Title 18, US Code, Section 242. Update, 1/22/19: Section 242 was changed significantly about 10 days after I notified Feinstein I intended to take legal action if she continued with her unlawful activities. Fortunately, I only cited that law in that Email, and there are other laws she can be charged under. When I found out about S.66 more recently, I sent her 2nd notice, also informing her that I noticed the convenient timing and change in the law I cited before. I let her know there are other laws she can be charged under and her recent antics changed nothing, unless she ceases and desists any and all of her unlawful activity. So, notice 1 and 2 were sent. 3 strikes and she's out...

They are more like naive boyscouts with a badge and a gun who cannot or will not think for themselves. I also have friends friends from the military who didn't get hired at the local and federal level because they "had too much life experience" and were considered too tainted in their viewpoints or they had "too many combat tours overseas" Not making this up. The people they are hiring these days are not people who believe in Freedom like most of those who view these videos. They are looking for "yes men" who will follow orders blindly no matter what.

I think nothing less than a total clean out is what is in order. From the politicians who voted the illegal law in, to the judges who signed off on the warrants, and yes even the officers who enforced it. All should be removed from position, and banned for life to ever seek positions in government or law or as attorney's ever again. Personally I'd even have them branded so the whole world could see their guilt. But maybe, just maybe that would be going to far. But that is how angry this makes me. Especially that so called public servant who tried to defend it.

not without due process ACLU

[@Philflash]

I only wish the people who commit an offense like this should have their personal information exposed so we can contact them to let them know of our dissatisfaction!

[@cobaltocean5822]

This is outrageous! Isn't there some way the supreme court can stop these violations of the constitution?

[@dannyt8887]

THE laws are what the laws are until it comes to democrats they make the laws as it suits them.

[@rays7437]

John Stossel is a true traditional liberal. Not like mainstream media who give liberals a bad name.

[@ronrichardson4805]

These laws are unconstitutional. These district attorneys should be jailed for abuse of power.

[@shackman9566]

Thank you John. More on this subject please.

[@lolwtnick4362]

lol this is the equivalent of swatting. law enforcement is just a tool and rule abiders that are easily manipulated.

[@cmvamerica9011]

Thanks for bringing this to light but I'm afraid America is already gone. Police state is here.

[@PatrickBaptist]

murika? North or south, it kills me how people call america a country when it's a divided continent.

[@teh_jibbler]

@@PatrickBaptist Does it bother you when people say China instead of the People's Republic of China?

[@PatrickBaptist]

Why would I care?

[@teh_jibbler]

@@PatrickBaptist Exactly. You know what they mean when they say it, even though it is technically wrong. The official name of that country is "People's Republic of China". You can extrapolate my point from there.

[@PatrickBaptist]

@@teh_jibbler Not quite the same at all. China is not a continent. My point being is even the Mexican people are technically Americans, as well as Canadians.

[@jamesfeldman4234]

Great video and important for all Americans to see and hear

[@macs.gone.fishin]

So they blatantly disregard the civil rights of these people, and nothing can be done? Has anyone ever sued over this?

[@haydehabdolahian7691]

Thank you for your efforts and brave reports👍

[@eyeout]

This is not a democracy John!

[@patrickkavanagh5335]

I'm a conservative in Canada we don't have police here if they tried that kind of thing here IT WOULD BE WAR!!! I don't use lawyers

[@AnnaLVajda]

Police do shit like that here. My house was stormed by 6 cops without a warrant who handed my 3 year old to my abusive ex who had lied in court and said it would be appealed in court in a few weeks yet a year and a half later my daughter has been not allowed to see or speak to me. This was because she and I had disclosed abuse and her father has some money and connections. We have compelled hate speech laws in Canada too that silence and oppress people ever hear of Jordan Peterson?

[@itchyisvegeta]

Yet there are politicians and voters who want these people in charge of your health care.

[@angelomanns7777]

The prosecutors need to be disbarred

[@natalyv84]

They couldn't have stopped me from talking to anyone and everyone who would listen.

[@felixnewton1358]

The spirit of liberty manifests itself in people's willingness to get outraged!

[@bowhunter7887]

Come on people. Learn your rights. Unreasonable search and seizure? Sue the hell out of them
