OK, lets look at just what we do know about this:
1 man, alone in his house @ 5:45AM (LE knew this, they were there from 9:00PM the night before) who had committed no crime YET. 3 homes evacuated, the street closed off, members of SWAT, members of 2 different county's Serif's Dep., and MPD officers all there surrounding the house, and a hostage negotiator (it did say that he was alone). And admittedly all there for a pre-crime action. OSP monitoring this mans LEAGLE gun purchases. The seizure of all his guns, without an arrest.
This alone, without the need of any other facts is VERY alarming!! Unless you have your head way down in the sand. Regardless of the rest of the details, this will set a new precedent to all LEO's involved as to what is within their rights to do to a civilian. Even if it is brought to light that this was over stepping there (LE) bounds, the worst that will happen will be a stern scolding by a judge. Where as, if a civilian over stepped there bounds this far with LE, regardless of what the details were, the consequences could range as high as death on the spot.
