In the world that I live in, this requires a warrant. And warrants 
require some sort of evidence that a crime has been committed by the 
suspect. Again, show me that this has happened. Otherwise we are just 
talking about the possibilities of life instead of the realities. I 
choose not to worry about the possibilities in life else I would 
never be able to relax. And I do like to relax rather than worry.
