i would agree,but in a situation like this,people are frightened into unknowingly surrendeing their rights. There would never be a law for it,it will just happen. Now they know they can remove people from their homes or whatever else went on. If it's left addressed after this,theyll take it a bit further next time.
I don't really know how they can take it farther. By actually grabbing people and throwing them out? Beating doors down? They can't do that. They wont' do that unless that house is harboring a criminal. No way they can go through a neighborhood doing that. This isn't a situation that occurs often to repeatedly "take advantage" of entering homes without consent. Even if they did enter without consent, any evidence from entering a home lke that or something like that, would get tossed out by a decent lawyer if my basic understanding of the law is correct.
That video of the police raiding door-to-door is slightly unnerving. I understand the severity of the situation but you shouldn't break the law to protect it imo.
The line between effective police action and police state is fairly narrow. You do have to be on the watch out for steps over it, however I don't think anything that happened in this incident really threatened that line. If what happened in Watertown and in Boston in general was the norm when a dangerous suspect was on the loose then we'd have a big problem on our hands. This case was exceptional in its presentation and in the danger that the suspects represented to the people around them. As a rule the authorities have some leeway when they are dealing with a mad bomber or other people using or threatening the use of WMD's.
One of the biggest things to me that made this an exceptional case is the fact that they found other explosives in the city. They needed to catch this guy and get all the information they could, because as long as he was out there the entire city was in danger. No one knew if he was working with anyone else, or if there was an event planned that would cause higher casualties than the marathon bomb. There was an imminent threat which created an extraordinary situation.
That's what I figured too. I mean first reports after the marathon they had no idea how many other devices they were
