This is one of the most atrocious abuses of the judicial system I've ever read about, and its only now beginning to come out into the public's attention. What I fear deep down is that so much of the government's power, at all levels, has been taken control of by progressives,technocrats, and socialists, that it's too late.

There is no room for civil discourse with these people. They actually feel justified in using any tactic or abuse or destruction of lives to gain their ends, with little fear of public or official backlash. They are in every nook and cranny of our society's institutions, government, law enforcement, judicial system, education, financial and even business.

It may very well be that those valuing liberty will have to begin to recognize the assault we're under is worthy of self defense, that these issues that we discuss and nibble around the edges of, trying to apply reason to, are actually as deadly as is a madman attacking with an axe, and deserve appropriate self defense. I think this is about life.

"John Doe" warrants are absolutely unconstitutional, as they are a form of illegal search and seizure, violating the 4th amendment. Warrants should be granted only when there is reasonable cause, and restricted to the party who is the likely suspect of criminal activity. Grand juries violate the 5th amendment, denying the defendant evidence presentation and testimony that would insure proper judgement of his peers.

I've been asked to give false testimony in more than one grand jury, but when I registered a complaint that the Federal prosecutor was suborning perjury, all it took to eliminate the complaint was a statement of denial by the prosecutor. If the grand jury system isn't entirely eliminated, then any witness should have the right to have preliminary interviews recorded.

I personally know one of the people this happened to. None of us knew about it until this person stuck his neck out and broke the gag order. The people of WI and the nation own this person a debt of gratitude for telling us about it.

If this ever happens to anyone immediately go public, to the news, lawyers, and anyone else that will listen. This is America and we have rights. I know several houses where this forced entry without a warrant probably would have went down much differently!!

Not much to add to the numerous excellent comments, except to say I am shocked as everyone, and anyone responsible for this outrage should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves.

And, as much or even more so, as they are the supposed "guardians" of Liberty, anyone in the press who knows of this and is willingly ignoring it should be even more ashamed, by orders of magnitude.

This story defines the extent to which our enemies will go against us. I think it is the most important story of this calendar year so far.

I don't know about anybody else, but this works with me. You better believe I am afraid because I know I am exactly the person that the government wants to target and shut down, and I know they can destroy everything I have worked for all my life. Anybody who thinks we don't live in tyranny better think again.

This is absolutely disgraceful. The article hits the key when one of the victims says something about this being the way we treat suspected drug dealers. Once we give the gov't power to act like this to address one problem, like gangs, terrorists, drugs, etc, it ends up being abused for political reasons. We're coming inured to there being special cases where Constitutional protections don't apply. I can convey my disgust for this type of abuse.

As Lenin might have said, No human suffering is too great to bear in the cause of glorious revolution.

All forgiven in NewMerica since the perps were Citizens of the New World Order and the objects of the gross corruption were Walker conservatives. Right?

This is coming soon in California to families who's children haven't had every single vaccine on the schedule.

No matter who it is applied to, this is a very scary development in our once-free nation. This doesn't bode well at all...

This is (thus far) the most egregious abuse of power I've ever seen.

Our Lords and Masters are beginning to flex their muscles, believing they now have the power to completely ignore the Constitution.

It's up to us to remind them they do not have absolute power. If you see this happening, record it, call the press, spread it all over cyberspace.

Cockroaches hate sunlight.

Gestapo

If someone tried this on one of my neighbors, they'd immediately find several of us with loaded weapons in the streets filming the whole thing and asking the officers what was going on. If they tried this at my house, they would be treated as well as they presented themselves.

I'm beginning to feel like Vercingetorix, leader of the defeated Gauls before being executed by Caesar. His last words might have been, "I'm a free person from a free country."

Once again I am compelled to ask; At what point does the initiation of the use of force demand the retaliatory use of force?

I sleep with multiple loaded guns close at hand. If something like this happen to me and mine there will likely be several deaths. Not saying I would survive but I know I could easily take many with me.

Unfortunately, I just saw "Woman In Gold" which had several scenes of NAZIs doing exactly the came as described here. I suddenly got a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. (By the way, a really good film and Helen Mirren is a wonder). I never thought that this sort of thing would ever happen in My America. But like the man says "It already has."
