First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a socialist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me—
and there was no one left to speak out for me.

If I had a child and I do not, by 16 the youth should be able to the difference between American and French oak, between a Cabernet and a Zinfandel, and of course between Sauvignon blanc and Pinot Grigio.

But to the story....any judge would be nuts to uphold that pathetic attempt at control.

So let's all raise a glass and say "hallelujah , we do Not live in jersey!"

Did they miss the part in the constitution about Unreasonable search and seizure? Who do they think they are - the militia of George III?

That they're even considering this is an affront to the nation they live in. Obviously were cutting school during the "civics" class where they talked about the difference between Freedom and Slavery...

Come into MY house unannounced without a warrant, and you'll likely find Uncle Smith and Cousin Wesson taking a hard line upon your butt... It's not really about underage drinking, its about showing you that you're serfs to the all mighty and holy Gubmint.

I doubt his would survive the ACLU lawsuit, let alone the first home owner suing when admittance is refused.

This is wrong on so many levels. I hope who ever thought of this is defeated the next time they're up for election.

Does anyone at any level of government in this country have any respect for the Constitution?

Warrantless entry based upon some undefined allegation. This is carte blanche for police entry anytime and will lead to swat type dynamic entries when homeowners refuse access. A judge needs to stop this quickly should it actually become law.

It appears that things Obamanation inspires the flattery of imitation at all levels in the current socialist regime.

Hmmm.. well OK, I was able to post two responses in two different fora, plus right here makes three.

The Fourth Amendment is supposed to be a check on the Police Powers of government..

I agree with ISank. What is wrong with underage drinking? Let's add a verse about 'underage drinking' to the below poem:

THE MODERN BABY
by William Croswell Doane

"The hand that rocks the cradle"—but there is no such hand;
It is bad to rock the baby, they would have us understand;
So the cradle's but a relic of the former foolish days
When mothers reared their children in unscientific ways—
When they jounced them and they bounced them, these poor dwarfs of long ago—
The Washingtons and Jeffersons and Adamses, you know.

They warn us that the baby will possess a muddled brain
If we dandle him or rock him - we must carefully refrain.
He must lie in one position, never swayed and never swung,
Or his chance to grow to greatness will be blasted while he's young.
Ah! To think how they were ruined by their mothers long ago—
The Franklins and the Putnams and the Hamiltons, you know.

Then we must feed the baby by the schedule that is made,
And the food that he is given must be measured out or weighed.
He may bellow to inform us that he isn't satisfied,
But he couldn't grow to greatness if his wants were all supplied.
Think how foolish nursing stunted those poor weaklings, long ago—
The Shakespeares and the Luthers and the Buonapartes, you know.

We are given a great mission, we are here today on earth
To bring forth a race of giants, and to guard them from their birth,
To insist upon their freedom from the rocking that was bad
For our parents and their parents, scrambling all the brains they had.
Ah! If they'd been fed by schedule would they have been stunted so?
The Websters and the Lincolns and the Roosevelts, you know.

I can see the potential for abuse here...not by the police, but by the residents...

"911"
"Oh, I think there's some sort of party going on...I think there's underage drinking going on, but I don't know...I just thought you should know."

"Thank you for the information, we're sending a unit over to investigate."

(At the caller's home upon hanging up the call) ` HAHA, that'll get em! They won't mess with me next time!

Similar to "swatting' only this time local yokal guys...no MRAPS...not at this time...not yet anyway.

"religious dogooders" is an oxymoron.

Man.... I can't imagine somebody just coming into my house. To see if my kids are drinking? Are you friggin kidding me? That's a great way to get yourself in trouble.

Texas law allows minors to drink as long as the parent is present. I know the stated target of this proposal is parties, but it might also include a family having some wine with dinner.
