Here in central VA today a man is dead following an explosion at his home. Early indications are that he was a civil war relic collector and speculation is that some ordnance that he had recovered exploded killing him.
Full story by the local news here: http://www.nbc12.com/news/state/15737917.html
Can anyone please tell me under what authority the police have to evacuate a neighborhood and force people to stay away from their homes overnight? What specific statue authorizes them to remove people from their homes (with or without) an identified threat where your presence in your own home does not constitute a danger to their activities?
I don't buy the "Its for your safety" bunk. If its for my safety, I get to choose whether I want it or not.
