Pssht, you cant even refuse entry into your own home...
Yes, yes you can. If they have no warrant, you have every right to refuse.
Did you want the videos? I would be like those people shaking, scared and no way have the courage to say..where is the warrant?

If I could build on this point.
I couldnt agree with you more.
I find that most people now fear police more than they do the common criminal.
I just want to really emphasize here....while people argue this like a generic 'this reaction could happen any time' event, that's simply not true and this WAS a very hot and anxious situation.

Using your scope to identify possible targets when civilians are 1000 times as prevavlent as potential targets is shear idiocy. That's even taught in Hunter Safety courses regarding hunting game. If you're being fired upon actively, then it's a different story.
What about the mass shootings by gangbangers is Chicago, or LA?
Did LA lock down the city when they were after Dorner?? This is all the more reason to believe that the Boston bombing is a conspiracy!!!!!!
We can find "excuses" and "reasons" for everything that happens in this world, but look outside the box at what is happening!!!!!
What did we here about non stop before Boston?????? North Korea??????? Then, after Boston died down, it is a mix between chemical weapons in Syria, and a teeny teeny bit of North Korea! See the pattern Wrabbit????
I know you are smart enough to not get caught up and defend this nonsense! It has been a proven pattern by the MSM that we are easily manipulated.......

My 12 year old learned that in hunter safety. It doesn't matter if you are a "pro" accidents happen. What a moron.

This is not protection of the people, this is control by force. And this is a show of strength by a government agency using the military as its tool. Total overkill and sadly the shape of things to come.

The thing is, it is a situational question. If I felt there was no reason they needed to search it, you're darn right I would refuse a search.

SS officers in the making practicing, I would not doubt there are people missing from Boston never to be found.
Please think, after watching the videos, imagine this is your family. They didn't "search voluntarily the homes' they screamed at the top of their lungs at your elderly Mom, HANDS UP HANDS UP< HANDS ON YOUR HEAD!
She is quivering and her hands are up then down then up as they scream, shaking not sure what is happening...they march her with the rest of the family a block down where men are searching HER BODY! Yes they did watch it! they searched those people who are NOT SUSPECTS!!!

Comparing hunters safety to active shooter scenarios (which is what this was) is a stretch at best, and downright dishonest at worst.
I do see a militarized police force in that photo. Can someone explain to me why their outfits are different? Is the one in the darker clothes the battalion, er, LEO commander?

Not really.
Loaded deer rifles kill people when rules of safety are not followed.... just the same as loaded assault weapons wielded by police.
BTW... news reports indicated that National Guard units were on the streets during the lockdown. Are they by any chance considered military? Or does that only count when they get sent to fight in Afghanistan?

Speaking about Dorner, remind me again who exactly fired on innocent civilians in their own vehicles?
I'm pretty sure it was the loose canon police, right?
I'm glad you do see the pattern emerging here. The thing with Dorner is that he specifically stated that his targets were the officers and others who had wronged him and had no intention of hurting civilians.
Alas, they probably should've put LA on lock down, too. Maybe the cops wouldn't have been so trigger happy if everyone was in their homes too scared to look out their windows.
Anyways, how come they didn't go door to door during the hunt for this man who did have friends and family? No, they wait until there's a terrorist in Boston and act like the citizens of Boston are hiding a man they're told just bombed their city street. If I were a Bostonian, I'd be extremely offended that my police force thought I or my neighbors were harboring a terrorist and treated as such.
