USA – -(Ammoland.com)- The one thing I cannot stress enough is to learn your rights as an American citizen.
The 4th amendment is in place to protect us from this sort of tyrannical barging in of our homes and our personal lives.
This is the way to handle unruly police officers trying to gain entry into your home.
If police come to your door and you don’t need their help, you can simply decline to answer. They cannot come into your home without a search warrant. Even if the police have probable cause, they cannot come in your home without a search warrant. You might even be a suspect in a criminal investigation. In such a case you should remain silent — except to say “Officer, I can’t let you inside without a search warrant.” Following such an encounter, you should immediately contact a lawyer before speaking to police again.
The fact is that police can legally lie to try and gain access into your home and knowing how to deal with police at your door can go a long way. A video uploaded to facebook by Avel Amarel, shows Amarel doing a great job at shutting down the two officers who tried to gain access to his house.
Notice that in the beginning of the video, police try to get Amarel to stop filming. Mission number 1, reduce accountability. Cheers to Amarel for standing his ground.
Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches 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 persons or things to be seized.
I am a CA APPS program highlighted ( meaning I have an angry former wife who had me placed under a Court ordered non-violent Domestic Violence Restraining Order.

Their feelings and statements are the only proof needed) as such I am a ‘prohibited person” and may not possess any firearms ammo etc etc. As I was ordered out of my own home, they came by looking for me as my moms house, twice, 1st time she told them he has not lived here in years, go… Read more »
I have done this job, for many years in fact, but I am disabled now. I can say that in my day and at either of the departments I worked for this would never of happened or been tolerated. There was on time that I responded to a disturbing the peace call. When I pulled up on the scene I noticed an individual that I recognized from being incarcerated in the county jail. He had a beer in his hand and turned around abruptly when he noticed me. He went back into the house he had just came out of.… Read more »

TSgt B and I am sure he will lose a lot of sleep lol
Lying POS cops .
@ Stinky,
That is no excuse for not standing up for your rights. That’s one reason I have a security camera at my front door. Your word against there’s is not good enough anymore.
I have no reason to fear my local cops, but things can change.
