I'm reminded of the George Bush quote about the constitution...
"...It's just a goddamn piece of paper!...It's just a goddamn piece of paper!"
I'm tired of it.....I DO NOT pledge allegiance to the flag....I DO NOT pledge allegiance to
the government for which it stands.....
I, instead, pledge allegiance to the constitution....I pledge allegiance to the principles that it defines.
And by doing so, I am not a guilty party, I am not a BAD guy. I am an American citizen who
is fed up with his government over-stepping its bounds and attempting to rewrite the
Constitution as it sees fit. That document created and sustained one of the greatest
republics in all of human history....and I am sick of watching it being subverted and trampled.

Police are allowed in some circumstances to install hidden surveillance cameras on private property without obtaining a search warrant, a federal judge said yesterday.
CNET has learned that U.S. District Judge William Griesbach ruled that it was reasonable for Drug Enforcement Administration agents to enter rural property without permission -- and without a warrant -- to install multiple "covert digital surveillance cameras" in hopes of uncovering evidence that (something illegal was going on)

If one of those trespassers step into say a bear trap, could I be held responsible for that?

What is so hard about getting a warrant anyway? Type it up, sign it, call on the judge & get his siggy too. This is CYA, the most basic rule of police work. Why take the risk? Get the warrant, then the judge is the one responsible for authorizing it. I don't see why this is even an issue. PD need to take a step back and pause. You main goal is go home safe; goal two is NOT to have brand new case-law named after you!!
