Canadian Cops seize guns from High River homes amid flooding

People returning to their destroyed homes in High River are furious after finding that cops had forced their way into their homes and seized their firearms while they were away.

Firearms experts say police do not have the right to enter homes without a warrant and take property, flooding or no flooding.

“This is without precedent, this is unreasonable search and seizure,” said Ed Burlew, lawyer and firearms specialist in Ontario.  “The entry was illegal, it's against the charter, it was unreasonable search and seizure. There's no judge that would uphold the evidence obtained through an illegal entry into a person's home.”

Political leaders say since there is an emergency, police should do what they have to do.

unreasonable search and seizure, to hell with that, thats just a slap on the hand.

They should charge them with burglary, they are nothing less then a common thief, they broke the law, and the people that ordered the job done should be charged with burglary as well and who ever excepted the stolen goods should be charged with receiving known stolen property.

"Firearms experts say police do not have the right to enter homes without a warrant and take property, flooding or no flooding."

Do we really need a 'firearms expert' (what ever that is) to tell us that the POLICE are above 'their' LAWS - at least they sure seem to act that way - Of course POLICE just can't enter someone's private property (home) without a warrant, and remove personal property - that's trespassing, and theft!
