A major decision that will impact Minnesotans’ privacy rights is waiting to be heard in the state’s court of Appeals.
It all started off simply enough. Jason and Jackie Wiebesick were a Golden Valley couple who lived in a duplex. One day, officials from the city approached them to ask permission to inspect their home. The stated reason was to collect information so as to make a decision over whether to renew the Wiebesick’s rental license.
Disturbed by the prospect of unfamiliar people walking around their home, the Wiebesick’s turned down the inspectors’ request. One might think it would have ended there, but the city saw to it that it didn’t.
Taking the case to court, Golden Valley authorities implored a county judge to issue a warrant overriding the Wiebesick’s objections and allowing them into the house. Tellingly, the judge refused their request for a warrant, prompting the city to reach even higher.

Thank god they are trying to protect us! He said sarcastically.
They want a rental license from the city. The city wants to inspect the property before granting the license. What’s the big deal?
You are wearing rose colored glasses sir, the end game is submission, rentals today tomorrow all houses, Rosa parks broke the law, just goes to show we the people allow them to step on our rights, I for one will buck the system every time I can,
Elections are coming up. Stay peaceful and then vote them ALL OUT.
Demands right? They don’t have a right. Get a lawyer ASAP.
It’s time to fight back. If the courts don’t back the American people the only course is with force. It will then be the governments fault for the outcome they will all get.
Too many people react only to headlines. Read the article and critically analyze it……ain’t nobody got time for that!
Way more important to find something to be angry about. Facts just get in the way.
Warrant or no, you come in, be very prepared for the consequences of your actions. They don’t call the entryways ‘death funnels’ for nothing
We are living under Obama’s dictatorship regime? ??
Let’s not put up with this!!!
