You comparing to doctors and medical malpractice is off base. Doctors aren't carrying firearms while being put in stressful situations where they may choose to use deadly force. Doctors have significantly more training than LE. Doctors don't have the ability to deprive you of your freedom if they don't like your "attitude". Doctors also don't have qualified immunity. If they screw up and kill someone, they can be sued with a much higher chance of success.
I understand you're law enforcement. I'm not anti-law enforcement. LE serves a very valuable role in society and is needed. It can be a tough job with having to make split second decisions. That doesn't mean I have to agree with the way many departments are administered, the way LE is trained, or the way some LE are overly aggressive in their approach to dealing with the community.
Remove qualified immunity and I may be behind you more, but until then, LE has practically zero consequences for their actions. You're right, I did contradict myself. I admit there may be some exigencies where LE needs to enter. Let me rephrase, in general, most exigencies allowing LE to enter your home without a warrant should be made illegal.
The comparison was just to point out the numbers are misleading. Doctors have way more issues but people can't go to youtube to watch them. LE videos are upsetting because it's actually a rarity that they make egregious mistakes, and the good contacts don't get posted. Watch a couple of these videos and the algorithm sends all of them to you, feeding the confirmation bias.
I cringe every time I see LE messing up. There have been times I wanted to call up a department and rail on them for their lack of training. But I haven't seen these things in person and would not tolerate them. I have also known officers who didn't violate rights, but also didn't know how to talk to people. You avoid them
I have seen lots of people on youtube (and real life) declaring they "know their rights" when they actually don't. The same thing frequently happens on this board. The 4th Amendment doesn't protect everyone against all searches. It was specifically written to allow reasonable searches to be conducted. The courts have ruled pretty well on what this means and they will not allow this to devolve into random searches of peoples homes, looking for illegals.
QI doesn't protect against criminal acts (I have to state that because so many think it does). It is needed, but the courts have messed it up and it needs some reform to protect the public. But that's is another discussion, not applicable on this thread.
This law is specifically for rounding up a specific group of people who have illegally entered this country as an foreign invasive organization. It does not apply to anyone else, nor does it give a right to violate 4th Amendment rights.
No one has posted here any reliable source that has said ICE is gonna start randomly searching houses for these invaders. 99% of the posts on this thread are straight up conjecture.
