Interesting articles. One says: however the 4the Amendment doesn't have any such provision which makes one wonder about the writer. It says exactly:
Does anyone read a passage regarding "knock and announce" in the 4th Amendment?
This is an entertaining thread....
I for 1 would personally find having my door kicked down and a gun put to my head before so much as seeing a warrant unreasonable. It's possible that other people felt this way too, which leads us to that "Knock and Announce" protocol.
Making exceptions to this for drug cases and such where evidence would be destroyed would constitute a reason, and therefore make it reasonable.
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
