Very much against a police state. The question is can you be forced to give
up evidence. And with a search warrant, yes you can.

That depends on the credibility of the threat.

So, I take it that you're in favor of a police state with 'freedom' define
by the convenience of the courts & police? A gov't that places higher
priority on the priviledges of it's officials than the rights of it's
citizens?

That is what we have now.

Personally, I don't like it... and the Founding Fathers would be
appalled... although they'd probably be surprised & pleased that the U.S.
succeeded so well & kept some vestiges of freedom for a long time.
