Also, I dunno about the US, but in Italy there are special rules for circumstances of in flagrante delicto. But noises, or a domestic dispute, aren't crimes - unless it becomes battery in the case of the domestic dispute.

Wikipedia and Universe wrote:I can totally understand a law like this, but it is one that requires plenty of oversight and provisions to ensure that it does not bring harm to officers doing legit work. It needs to be made clear what constitutes a lawful and unlawful entry, for one.
A person is justified in using reasonable force against a public servant if the person reasonably believes the force is necessary to:
(1) protect the person or a third person from what the person reasonably believes to be the imminent use of unlawful force;
(2) prevent or terminate the public servant's unlawful entry of or attack on the person's dwelling, curtilage, or occupied motor vehicle; or
(3) prevent or terminate the public servant's unlawful trespass on or criminal interference with property lawfully in the person's possession, lawfully in possession of a member of the person's immediate family, or belonging to a person whose property the person has authority to protect.
(j) Notwithstanding subsection (i), a person is not justified in using force against a public servant if:
(1) the person is committing or is escaping after the commission of a crime;
(2) the person provokes action by the public servant with intent to cause bodily injury to the public servant;
(3) the person has entered into combat with the public servant or is the initial aggressor, unless the person withdraws from the encounter and communicates to the public servant the intent to do so and the public servant nevertheless continues.

With a warrant.
And no one is a criminal until they're actually found guilty, you're being presumptuous with the whole "guilty until proven innocent" schtick, but I'm assuming you're a communist so that's not rly surprising at all.

I oppose the use of deadly force against ANYONE unless it's the only way to stop a threat to a person's life. Then again, one wonders why public servants and police should enjoy a special protection when committing an unlawful act. And I'm very worried that law enforcers would want to have the privilege to step over laws. Such people aren't fit to be part of the police forces of a democracy.The United Soviet Socialist Republic wrote:Yeah tell me how the Hell a cop will legally enter the home of a criminal?
Maybe you could have heard of things such as "warrants". It's a piece of paper, signed by a judge who, upon reviewing the consistence of the allegations about a citizen (see the concept of "habeas corpus"), orders the police to violate some of the suspect's rights (such as the right to privacy of his own domicile) to a given extent.

The point is that while there were such laws, they were protected from facing what would otherwise be legal measures to prevent unlawful entry.

ok well that makes sense. The next issue however is what if your house is on fire and firemen are going inside to do something like stop the fire. Technically they are civil servants, so could you actually beat them up or is it against the law to allow your house to burn?
To me the law is vague or i need to read up on Iandiana state laws so i can verify what is legal and not in indiana.

Why would it be illegal for firefighters to enter a burning house?

because the new law states that if any public servant to enter your property unlawafully. Unless another law states that burning houses are allowed to be entered by firefighters, with or without the consent of the owner. Then my point is pointless. If there is no such law or rule or whatever then technically firefighters would not be able to enter the house. I just think the law needs more substance instead of it being a one liner :/.
