I blogged about here that the cops in D.C. and some other cities were planning on going door-to-door, asking for permission to come in and search for guns and shit. I made some crack about Boston falsely advertising themselves as the cradle of liberty.
Well, it seems that a lot of people in Boston weren't too happy at the idea of the Jackboot Squad showing up at their doors.
"Boston police officials, surprised by intense opposition from residents, have significantly scaled back and delayed the start of a program that would allow officers to go into people's homes and search for guns without a warrant."
No shit, genius. People do take their liberties and rights seriously. This isn't Soviet America quite yet. Oh, Bush and his neocon goons are trying to take us there, but we aren't all the way there yet.
