It is ridiculous, as is a heavily armed tactical squad being called on a quiet suburban family of four. Unfortunately it&#x27;s the sort of bullshit that the public seems to allow when it&#x27;s framed as a &quot;War&quot;.<p>One possible way to flip the debate might be to re-frame it as police &quot;War on the Constitution&quot;. I&#x27;m not sure if it will work, or if there&#x27;s better wording, but the author tries to do it in the article:<p><i>&quot;The Fourth Amendment was a response to the invasive, sometimes violent searches of colonists’ homes by British soldiers armed with general warrants to look for untaxed goods.&quot;</i>
