 Throwing the third amendment out the window, a Jacksonville, Florida SWAT team reportedly commandeered a woman's home during a standoff with her neighbor. After Deborah Franz overheard a fight at her neighbor's house, a SWAT team "swarmed" her neighborhood and engaged her neighbor in a standoff. During the standoff, which lasted some six hours, the SWAT team came to her home and kicked her out of it. "The cop goes 'You all need to leave, you can't be in your house,'" said Franz. After kicking her out of her own home, she believes the SWAT team took quarters in her house because when she returned her blinds were open, her XBOX and TV were disconnected, and a drape covering her bedroom window was thrown on the floor. "I stopped, I froze because I realized somebody had messed with my TV [...] They were the last people I saw, was the police, so I'm assuming it had to have been them," said Franz. Upon calling the sheriff's department, Franz says they confirmed their "men did come into [her] house." Having soldiers commandeer a private citizens home is a direct violation of the third amendment. A similar case happened recently in Nevada where police commandeered two homes to use as a spy base against the homeowner's neighbor. When the homeowner told the police he wouldn't consent to their invasion and didn't want them to use his homes for their own purposes, the police allegedly broke his door down with a battering ram, ordered him to the floor, shot him with less-lethal pepper-ball rounds, shot his dog, and arrested him. The trumped up charges leveled against him were later dropped and the family filed suit alleging the police violated the third amendment. _ Chris runs the website InformationLiberation.com, you can read more of his writings here.
