Do you have a 40-foot ladder and a six pack? I like excitement. The guys I used to work with at the tree service company drank everyday on the way to the first job and it always looked like fun.

Warrants

Why would a warrant be necessary?

I didn't say a warrant was or wasn't necessary. I want to know yea or nay because if the police were sent out without warrants, obviously their investigation of the "evidence" did not warrant arresting or filing charges against any of those people who sent faxes. It means the police were sent to intimidate.

Look at your rights and freedoms as what would be required to survive and be free as if there were no government. Governments come and go, but your rights live on. If you wish to survive government, you must protect with jealous resolve all the powers that come with your rights - especially with the Right to Keep and Bear Arms. Without the power of those arms, you will perish with that government - or at its hand. B.E. Wood

 

[Deanimator]

Wouldn't a warrant be necessary for the police to detain you for questioning?

OTH If they are willing to dispense with the First amendment, ignore the second amendment, they probably won't have much respect for they fourth, fifth, ninth, tenth, and fourteenth amendments.

Not necessarily for questioning, but I'm betting they'd need one to enter your home without your permission, which you should NEVER give.

They can do all of the things which you note above. However a cost attaches if you're not willing to just roll over and be abused. When somebody tries to intimidate me, it's all downhill from there. I'll ruin your day, no matter what it costs me. I never let that kind of thing go.

I am in NO way defending Kotowski. The ISRA says they've examined the faxes and couldn't find justification for ISP visits to the originator. I tend to believe them.

I have no reason to not believe them but I'd like to see some scans of faxes that got ISP visits posted as well as a more solid list of who/how many people received visits. If you've got proof on your side, show it off and make your case look even stronger.

Katowski put out a press release yesterday claiming death threats against him because of his anti-gun position. Sounded like damage control to me, to counter the ISRA claims. He said he was scared but wasn't going to let that change his stance. said that it was appropriate to let the ISP handle it, just like they would for the governor or any other elected official.

 

[ConstitutionCowboy]

If Katowski is going to try these people in the media, he needs to present his evidence in the media. Cough up the faxes, Katowski.

Its seems Blago is using the ISP more and more as a political tool. While the ISP has never been known for their crime fighting acumen, at least in previous administration they were not overtly taking sides in political affairs. This is not a good sign. Hopefully the people of IL get seriously offended by this. But I wouldn't bet on it.

 

[rdhood]

How do you define threat?
Is there not an inherent threat in the ownership of arms?

Yep. The paper targets, deer, squirrels, and all manner of vermin are shaking in their paws.

Oh, you mean "Is there not an inherent threat in the ownership of firearms" that is a general threat to every person? NO, and it takes a mentally unstable and paranoid person to believe so. Any person who believes so should NOT have a gun.

BTW The wise man was Robert A. Heinlein in the book Starship Troopers a novel on political theory disguised as science fiction. A romping good read, I highly recommend it.
