A clear violation of the fifth amendment: "No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or PROPERTY, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."

I'm always annoyed by these people getting interviewed. They never mention the intimidation tactics that were used (they question why so many vehicles showed up, but that's not the same thing). Their vehicle was just stolen! Out of the blue? No prior contact questioning the VIN numbers? Either the news stations splice this stuff out of their segments or they're pussy footing around on purpose.

My wife told me about this case. Their arrogance in D.C. is getting to the point where they actually want to cause a civil breakout. Anything to draw first blood. I have told people and of all ages young and old the vote in the primaries are needed as here in Michigan on the 5th of Aug. Why the young that cannot vote because I challenge them to ask their parents or anyone who can vote why they do or do not. No matter those who can need to. quit this "my vote doesn't count crap" and do what is right. There are some candidates here that still believe what the Constitution stands for. Some are still up to politics as usual, but there are still those who still believe in our Constitution. I will vote, but I will not vote for those who just believe D.C. is the answer. Their violations have exceeded our ways of life. These people who have been trampled on are our people and without just compensation.

This 67-year-old dino has lived too long. This Land Rover snatch is pure eco-Nazi bull crap. This is not the America I grew up in. Oh, I know! We've slipped into The Twilight Zone and Hitler won the war. Mein Gott!
Hey, let's tell the military switch back to the Jeeps they once had me drive a coupla times.back in 1970. Military Jeeps may offer zip for roadside mines but at least they'd save the world from that mean ole' Climate Change that's always changing like the weather.

Also the 4th amendment.
"The right of the people to be secure in persons, houses, papers and effects against UNREASONABLE SEARCH AND SEIZURES, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the person or things to be seized."
Pretty clear, wouldn't you say? The people doing the seizing have probably never read the Constitution or even know much about it. They merely see it as an excuse to show off their power. It appears that they are more like minions of Putin rather than officials of the USA.

The video is no longer available. How many times has this happened in the Gulch. This is not a conspiracy theory. We follow the right stories and someone is trying to stop people from seeing them. Since when does Homeland Security do emissions tests on vehicles? The noose is tightening faster than I anticipated.

This is a total tangent, but awhile back I realized that if you do a Spoonerism on "Land Rover" you get "Rand Lover." 'Just sayin.

If I ever bought one, I'd get a custom shop to modify the emblems.

I found the video on the WBTV site, listing the topic.
So, Homeland Security has no issue other than to compare the VIN numbers on all the stamped parts on a vehicle? Maybe they wanted to go after these folks for improper politics? You can bet none of the Obama Marxists have things like this happen to them. Would this really be under the jurisdiction of Homeland Security, and if so, why. What a stupid waste of taxpayer dollars, all for some pseudo-environmental standard. How much damage is government funded HAARP doing to the environment, changing the jet stream? I see some deep dark motive beyond the obvious here. Next they will come for our homes, under UN Agenda 21, also to save the environment.

does any car manufacturer actually make a car that doesn't meet the emission standards in the first place that is legal to be sold in America? fear the enforcers of the supposed law more than the supposed law makers!!!!!!!

This would seem to be a case that the IJ could well take to court. I hope that the couple knows that there are organizations of lawyers whose chief desire is to clip the government's wings on constraint of personal liberties issues. Rand Paul has just introduced a bill to limit seizure of cash and 'fair sharing' of the profits of those seizures by the police department.

The way Washington is working these days, it would not surprise me one bit if this was given to a Sen. or Congressman for 1 of their kids. Nothing surprises me about DC anymore. The time is getting closer every day.......

I've read that Land Rovers are going out of production and thieves are stealing them at an increasing rate for chop parts. Are we sure these guys were from the DHS?

I find it interesting that the video at the link is now gone, claiming a "copyright" infraction. What a crock.
