What ever happened to writing the person(s) in question a letter and asking them to come down to the local PD or DMV office for a little "show and tell" ??

But no, the cops need to exhibit, " initial show of force discourages a possible foolish act..."

What ever happend to innocent until proven guilty ? Seems the cops are only worried about their hides when executing search warrants and collecting on outstanding registration fees - call me cynical, but I think it's a complete JOKE. What would they have done if the owner had gotten frightened and picked up his 12 guage ??

It would have been a nasty situation, all over vehicle registration. Law enforcement needs use more restraint when using force as a deterent...People get hurt and do stupid things when they feel threatened.
