Getting a PC back & your rights

On a good side note I'd like to mention today that I received my PC back from the prosecutors office. (Yes, more quality modelling to be done).
Just to let everyone know, that if your electronics are near a crime scene, they are susceptible to being confiscated by the police for a very long extended period for review. However a lot of the time your police forensic computer specialist is on vacation for weeks at a time. So you'll have to wait for him to get back as well before you can even go past step 2.
So if you go out, take your PC with you. Swimming, Hiking, Taking out your garbage, eating a restaurant, going to the gas station for your $5.00 Doritos and 2 Liter Mtn. Dew; carry your PC with you at all times so it doesn't get caught in the police web.

Wow, that's just stupid. If you aren't involved you shouldnt be treated As if you are. Police are dumb.

^ This.
The Goverment has no rights to tell us what we need to do with our laptops, it is like the same as SOPA or PETA.

What if you live in a hot Area and it fries your computer.

They DO have to take those actions though, they can't know if anybody in a neighborhood has done something bad or not.

Somehow, I suddenly have deja vu about a dream I once had. No idea what it was about, just that it relates here somehow.
