Police to Unconstitutionally Disarm Boston Residents

To search your CHILDREN'S ROOMS!

This fucking fascism has to END RIGHT NOW!

Yup, going to DISARM the American public so these insane fascistas can carry out their subjugation plans on the American people.

When is America going to finally take a stand, or is it too late, readers?

"Police to search for guns in homes; City program depends on parental consent" by Maria Cramer/Boston Globe November 17, 2007

Boston police are launching a program that will call upon parents in high-crime neighborhoods to allow detectives into their homes, without a warrant, to search for guns in their children's bedrooms.

The program, which is already raising questions about civil liberties, is based on the premise that parents are so fearful of gun violence and the possibility that their own teenagers will be caught up in it that they will turn to police for help, even in their own households.

Gee, then WHO BENEFITED from allowing the cities to become dens of violence?

Who benefited from holding back resources?

Could it be any plainer, readers?

Sig Heil!


In the next two weeks, Boston police officers who are assigned to schools will begin going to homes where they believe teenagers might have guns.

Oh, so if they just think you do, in the cops go, huh?

This is fucking unconstitutional!


The officers will travel in groups of three, dress in plainclothes to avoid attracting negative attention, and ask the teenager's parent or legal guardian for permission to search. If the parents say no, police said, the officers will leave.

And duly record the address where they were refused, right?

I am SICK of this FASCIST FUCKING STATE!!!!!!!!!


If officers find a gun, police said, they will not charge the teenager with unlawful gun possession, unless the firearm is linked to a shooting or homicide.

The program was unveiled yesterday by Police Commissioner Edward F. Davis in a meeting with several community leaders.

Thomas Nolan, a former Boston police lieutenant who now teaches criminology at Boston University:

"I just have a queasy feeling anytime the police try to do an end run around the Constitution. The police have restrictions on their authority and ability to conduct searches. The Constitution was written with a very specific intent, and that was to keep the law out of private homes unless there is a written document signed by a judge and based on probable cause. Here, you don't have that."

Welcome to Fascista AmeriKa, readers!


Critics said they worry that some residents will be too intimidated by a police presence on their doorstep to say no to a search.

Amy Reichbach, a racial justice advocate at the American Civil Liberties Union;

"Our biggest concern is the notion of informed consent. People might not understand the implications of weapons being tested or any contraband being found."

But Davis said the point of the program, dubbed Safe Homes, is to make streets safer, not to incarcerate people.

Davis, who met with community leaders yesterday to get feedback on the program;

"This isn't evidence that we're going to present in a criminal case," said "This is a seizing of a very dangerous object... I understand people's concerns about this, but the mothers of the young men who have been arrested with firearms that I've talked to are in a quandary. They don't know what to do when faced with the problem of dealing with a teenage boy in possession of a firearm. We're giving them an option in that case."

Yeah, FASCISM is for OUR OWN GOOD!

FUCK YOU, COP!!!!!!!!!!!!


But some activists questioned whether the program would reduce the number of weapons on the street. A criminal whose gun is seized can quickly obtain another, said Jorge Martinez, executive director of Project Right, who Davis briefed on the program earlier this week:

"There is still an individual who is an impact player who is not going to change because you've taken the gun from the household."

The program will focus on juveniles 17 and younger and is modeled on an effort started in 1994 by the St. Louis Police Department, which stopped the program in 1999 partly because funding ran out.

Police said they will not search the homes of teenagers they suspect have been involved in shootings or homicides and who investigators are trying to prosecute.

Davis: "In a case where we have investigative leads or there is an impact player that we know has been involved in serious criminal activity, we will pursue investigative leads against them and attempt to get into that house with a search warrant, so we can hold them accountable."

I don't believe a word you say, cop!

Police will rely primarily on tips from neighbors. They will also follow tips from the department's anonymous hot line and investigators' own intelligence to decide what doors to knock on. A team of about 12 officers will visit homes in four Dorchester and Roxbury neighborhoods: Grove Hall, Bowdoin Street and Geneva Avenue, Franklin Hill and Franklin Field, and Egleston Square.

If drugs are found, it will be up to the officers' discretion whether to make an arrest, but police said modest amounts of drugs like marijuana will simply be confiscated and will not lead to charges
.

That's what they are saying, huh? Well, FUCK YOU, FASCISTAS!

Yeah, first they wanted to get in the room to find the guns!

Now it's GUNS and DRUGS, too, huh?

See how this is just the fascista's way of GETTING IN YOUR HOUSE, poor dumb folk?

And do you truly believe they won't charge the kid?

They will certainly right his name and address down as a drug-dealer no doubt!


Elaine Driscoll, Davis's spokeswoman:

"A kilo of cocaine would not be considered modest. The officers that have been trained have been taught discretion."

This isn't about protecting people!

This is about CRAWLING UP YOUR ASS with a MAGNIFYING GLASS!

What a SHIT STATE Massachusetts is!

Sig Heil!


The program will target young people whose parents are either afraid to confront them or unaware that they might be stashing weapons, said Davis, who has been trying to gain support from community leaders for the past several weeks.

One of the first to back him was the Rev. Jeffrey L. Brown, cofounder of the Boston TenPoint Coalition, who attended yesterday's meeting:

"What I like about this program is it really is a tool to empower the parent. It's a way in which they can get a hold of the household and say, 'I don't want that in my house.' "

You one of the fascist pastors who is going to tell us to cooperate with the Nazi government, sir?

Secret FEMA Plan To Use Pastors as Pacifiers in Preparation For ...

Then as a man of the cloth, you make me ill, Nazi!


Suffolk District Attorney Daniel F. Conley, whose support was crucial for police to guarantee there would be no prosecution, also agreed to back the initiative:

"To me it's a preventive tool."

To me it is FASCISM!


Boston police officials touted the success of the St. Louis program's first year, when 98 percent of people approached gave consent and St. Louis police seized guns from about half of the homes they searched.

St. Louis police reassured skeptics by letting them observe searches, said Robert Heimberger, a retired St. Louis police sergeant who was part of the program:

"We had parents that invited us back, and a couple of them nearly insisted that we take keys to their house and come back anytime we wanted."

Another LYING FUCKING PIG!!!!!!!!!!!!!


But the number of people who gave consent plunged in the next four years, as the police chief who spearheaded the effort left and department support fell, according to a report published by the National Institute of Justice.

Because WE DON'T WANT A FUCKING GOD-DAMNED FASCISTA POLICE STATE, got it!!!!?????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Support might also have flagged because over time police began to rely more on their own intelligence than on neighborhood tips, the report said.

Heimberger said the program also suffered after clergy leaders who were supposed to offer help to parents never appeared:

"I became frustrated when I'd get the second, or third, or fourth phone call from someone who said, 'No one has come to talk to me.' [Residents] lost faith in the program and that hurt us."

So what do you do, sir, when a COUNTRY has LOST FAITH in its GOVERNMENT!

Because I HAVE NONE for this fucking fascista police state we are living in!


Boston police plan to hold neighborhood meetings to inform the public about the program. Police are also promising follow-up visits from clergy or social workers, and they plan to allow the same scrutiny that St. Louis did.

Driscoll: "We want the community to know what we're doing."

Ronald Odom - whose son, Steven, 13, was fatally shot last month as he walked home from basketball practice - was at yesterday's meeting and said the program is a step in the right direction.

Odom, following the meeting:

"Everyone talks about curbing violence... This is definitely a head start."

Yup, everyone talks about curbing violence -- EXCEPT FOR THIS WAR-MONGERING, MASS-MURDERING GOVERNMENT!!!!!

So FUCK OFF, FASCISTA COPS!!!!!!!
