What do I do if the government asks to search my home, office, or other personal property?

None of us are under any obligation to cooperate with the government and assist the government in the search of our home, our personal property or automobile.

In fact, if you let the government come in and search all of your belongings it doesn’t necessarily score any brownie points because the government is going to try to hurt you anyway. So I would suggest that if the government comes and knocks on your door and says, may I search your house, ask them if they have a search warrant. If they don’t have a search warrant and they say, well, I’m going to have to go and get a search warrant let them go and get a search warrant. Sometimes they may not be able to get that search warrant. It’s not our obligation as citizens or residents to help the government make a case against us; it doesn’t help that you were cooperative, it may hurt you.
