I think you are the one pretending. Watch the video over and over until you understand the truth.
The courts have repeatedly ruled that a seizure occurs when circumstances exist that make a reasonable person believe that a seizure has occurred. When a group of armed police show up at your door, as they were ordered to do, the encounter is NOT consensual. Whatever you saw or heard about that appeared to be consensual (it couldn't possibly be under the circumstances) was the result of fear and/or ignorance on the part of sheepish people.
Shame on the people of Boston for tolerating the Patriot's Day Militarization of Boston, and shame on anyone defending it!
It is past time for the People to get MAD AS HELL at this CRIME!

Police knock at my door, I tell them "sorry guys, you aren't coming in, no terrorist here" and it is over. Because someone sees the police and immediately puts there hands up and lets them in doesn't constitute a crime.
Eye admits the police were ordered to show up at the door. This is true. They were not, however, ordered to forcefully enter.

THE perfect analysis.
Thank you!

One "someone that was there" somehow establishes that it never happened anywhere in the city? Especially when we have video to the contrary?Look, I didnt like what happened either. But lets not pretend that the police were told to forcefully enter when that was not the case, as confirmed by someone that was there. Did some forcefully enter?
As if it matters when the gun is in your face and the troops swarm your home.That could very well be true, but that was that particular cop/team and not a directive from higher.

18 USC 1385 "Whoever, except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress, willfully uses any part of the Army or the Air Force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both."
Not justifying the horrific violations of rights in Boston, but the National Guard are not part of the Army or Air Force until they are federalized. A legal scholar may prove me wrong, but under my understanding, the use of the guard in this way does not violate posse comitatus.

The NG has been federalized since post 9-11, AND the troops were acting under the command of a FEDERAL agency(FBI). That puts them square in violation of the act.
