Can we please get back on topic?
This is about legislation being proposed in Massachusetts that would allow law enforcement officers to enter a home without a warrant, to determine if firearms are being stored within the property in the manner dictated by existing law. It is a 4th Amendment situation that is specifically occurring in Massachusetts. Comments on where else this may have been tried (e.g., the comment about Arlington County, VA) are welcome as being informational about the outcome of such efforts. In the unlikely event that this legislation succeeds, it will be the "camel's nose under the edge of the tent" that will start to erode very strong 4th Amendment rights against unlawful search.
This thread is NOT about:
Slave Owning founding fathers
Bullscat bravado against assessors
