The real question in this drama is who authorized this level of force for what was obviously a "minor infraction" at best? Unfortunately, you can read about this kind of gestapo tactic almost every day in our once great republic. It seems the people we entrust to police the police, as in the judge who issued the warrant, or perhaps our elected county sheriff, have routinely lasped into a "rubber stamp" coma of sorts. I fear it is only a matter of time before this type of nonsense ends up in a deadly confrontation between law enforcement and local militia, or perhaps even cops on cops (federal , state, county, city), as heavily armed people with different views of our fundamental rights sort it out at gunpoint. Nuff Said.
