It's wild that the cops aren't held liable for this
My only slightly exaggerated take is that police on duty can do whatever they want to whomever they want - up to and including killing someone - and not be held liable.
Looks like you need to have a hidden camera system monitoring your camera system.
Yeah I wonder on what grounds the police can start unplugging shit in your house. This also happened in the Adrian Schoolcraft case - when the police burst into his house to take him in he was recording audio on one device which they found, unplugged and destroyed ... but they failed to find the second device (which is how we know). It's kinda wild how if the police might have a grudge against you, you'll have to set…

What is the safest (from a privacy perspective) and easiest way to set up in-home cameras?
In the context of a raid such as this ... you'd want, at least, visible hard wired camera's (not WiFi - jamming) going to a NAS box (for storage) with a distinct colour network cable from that NAS apparently direct to the main router .. The cunning part is to have additional hidden cameras hard wired within the studs going to a second well hidden NAS box that takes the direct mirror feed from the first NAS box via a…
The song from his previous music video about the raid is much catcher IMO ( https://youtu.be/ISe3IVBBbyU ). Also, going through his channel it's crazy to see how prolific he's been. More on topic, the raid seems like a total miscarriage of justice- these sheriffs rolled up in camo and busted in like they were storming bin Laden's compound. All that work to confiscate 2 joints (its actually kinda funny, I would've ass…
I posted this one because it's a tiny bit more family friendly than the one you mentioned. This scandal makes me think the Constitutional Sheriff movement might be very bad. https://www.themarshallproject.org/records/2587-constitution...
> The Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (CSPOA) is a political organization of local police officials in the United States who contend that federal and state government authorities are subordinate to the local authority of county sheriffs. Self-described constitutional sheriffs assert that they are the supreme legal authority with the power and duty to defy or disregard laws they regard as unconstitutional. As a result, they may sometimes be referred to as sovereign sheriffs.

Terrifying.

Read up on “qualified immunity.” My only slightly exaggerated take is that police on duty can do whatever they want to whomever they want - up to and including killing someone - and not be held liable.
In the United States, qualified immunity is a legal principle that grants government officials performing discretionary (optional) functions immunity from civil suits unless the plaintiff shows that the official violated "clearly established statutory or constitutional rights of which a reasonable person would have known".[1]
I'm sure killing people violates clearly established constitutional rights, so the concept looks puzzling.
I’m telling you, the only way out of this mess is to eliminate qualified immunity, and becoming a cop should entail forfeiting many civil rights in exchange for insurmountable amount of power a cop has. US police is basically a military, and should be treated as such.

They were unconstitutional. That has been proven.
It was illegal for officers of the law to enforce them.
I don't think the primary law enforcement problem in the US is Sheriffs. Say what you will about police. These are not the same organizations.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Presumably SWAT captain, for dealing with the possible threat of well-armed cartel dens. Afroman has good taste though, those HS-5s sound beautiful, surprised he didn't spring for the 8inch subs though. Guess it's simple if you're not mastering jungle.
>> Can someone tell me about the person dressed in full camo gear […] > Presumably SWAT captain, for dealing with the possible threat of well-armed cartel dens. Was the operational target a structure in a wooded area where this individual needed to sneak up on without visual detection? Is that the reason for the foliage-coloured camo? Because it does not look like the operation involved sneaking around a wooded area…
Couple that desire to cosplay with a large funnel of tax dollars going to purchase military purpose weapons for potential use on domestic civilians and we have a resultant system no different than high-school aged kids wanting to prep for airsoft.
Except it is different. They have the ability (and sometimes even the express desire to) escalate and potentially kill other people.
Outside of the due process that is the law they swear to uphold when sworn in to service.
