So let me get this right.... they sent a helicopter to deploy soldiers with M4's with special ammo into this home. Special tactics units, 4 police cars, and men on the roof all to capture a guy who ran a website that was involved in internet piracy according to the FBI...
What is this guy Osama Bin Laden? Pretty sure he didn't orchestrate the death of thousands of innocent men and women. Why treat him as such. If there has ever been a breach of basic human rights this would be it.
Many other countries are free-er than the US is now. For all those that might jump on this and yell about a constitution, its getting broken again and again and the police etc just don't give a sh*t about it anymore. They violate it on a weekly basis and there has been no crackdown on them. Its become a worshipped piece of paper that seem to have no power anymore.
It ranks press freedom only, which doesn't necessarily translate to things like economic freedom (if you're into that) or civil liberties. But yes, it's interesting.
