Swat raid Kansas home. Couple spends $25k to find out why.
http://www.kshb.com/news/local-news/...o-familys-home
Full story at the link. Summary with excerpts below. SWAT raids a leawood couples home with guns drawn. Put them and their young kids on their couch. Find nothing illegal, and seize nothing. Kansas law prevents them from finding out why they were raided. Quote:

I got ticketed for window tint in Butler county about 13 years ago , took it to court and won. The sheriff followed me out and threatened me with harassment if I ever drove thru Augusta again. I told him I had no plans to drive through there again and that he could goose-step his troops all over someone else. We had an issue in Sarpy County a few years ago when a reporter tried doing an anonymous complaint. The cops actually locked his ass up when he refused to give them his name. People retired after that one. |

And when a homeowner reacts to the large men waving guns and yelling as they bust down the door, the cops shoot him, and the cops here on CP tell me how it was justified because they feared for their life.

Kansas is like a big religious barb wire fence standing in the way of driving to Colorado.

Truth is that at any time the authority's can jerk any one of us out of our lives and do what ever they want to us with no recourse. We're free just as long as we don't get to far out of line.

Everyone is saying sue Kansas but the initial raid was conducted by the Johnson County Sheriff's office. I'd say if you're gonna sue, start there.
And WTF was this about? Quote:

I get the sentiment, but im talking about real life situation. There is no chance pot ends up in a trashcan unless some mom has confiscated it from her 16 year old, and even then you know the kid or his buddies would scoop it right back out~
