"The boy was questioned by the principal and a sheriff’s deputy, who also wanted to search the family home without a warrant, Henkelman said. “He started asking me questions about if I have firearms, and [the deputy said] he’s going to have to search my house. Search my house? I just wanted to know what happened.”
No search was performed, and the deputy left Henkelman’s home after the father answered questions in a four-page questionnaire issued by the Sheriff’s Office."
My kids school teachers know I own firearms. Heck a few of them read this blog. The Chief of the School Districts Police knows I have firearms. I've offered to give him ammunition I don't use, and we've discussed firearm preferences. He likes his .40, I like my .38 and .45. There are two sheriffs deputies who have outstanding invitations to come shoot with me anytime they feel like it. They like older firearms like I do. One of them offered to buy my SKS because he likes the fully adjustable rear sight mine has.
In short they know I am a responsible firearms owner, and I will do anything I can to assist them if they ever need it. If it's simply stopping traffic (Which I have done after 2 accidents) until backup could get there, to giving a patrol car a jump start after it's battery died.
However for a Deputy to think he can just walk in my house uninvited and search? "GET A WARRANT"
Some will say, "If you have nothing to hide, why would you mind?"
Simple, it violates my Rights and my PRIVACY. If they are going to come into my home with the intent to search, they better have a Warrant in their hand for me to see. One that details down to the FINEST detail what exactly they are looking for. If they are looking for drugs, well I have a lot of prescriptions. Locked in my SAFE. If they have a warrant I will gladly unlock it then step back allowing them to check it. They will not however force the lock on my safe or be searching it unaccompanied. I will get out the video camera to document every single part of the search. I used to be in Law Enforcement, I KNOW what can happen if a bad cop gets it in his head you are dirty. So no, you better have a Warrant and the search will be fully documented through video or you will wait for my lawyer to get here.
So no, no 4 page "survey", no searching my house. I haven't done anything wrong and if you think I did, go to a Judge and get a Warrant.
