Like the raid on the Branch Davidians?

I'm always perplexed by people's continued support of these types of
raids. I KNOW people who have been raided for drugs, based purely on
an anonymous call! I HATE people who harm children, and believe fully
that those who create or trade in child pornography should be hunted
down and shot. However, again, individual rights must be protected
first and this story is just one of millions that shows why.

For that matter, it's another scenario about what's wrong with DUI and
NARC checks....
