This is going to be an interesting court case on the national level. Evidently. the State of Indiana decided that police can enter your home whenever they wish, and there is nothing that you can do about it.
I have included the first paragraph from the above link.
INDIANAPOLIS | Overturning a common law dating back to the English Magna Carta of 1215, the Indiana Supreme Court ruled Thursday that Hoosiers have no right to resist unlawful police entry into their homes.
In a 3-2 decision, Justice Steven David writing for the court said if a police officer wants to enter a home for any reason or no reason at all, a homeowner cannot do anything to block the officer's entry.
I will leave it up to the legal eagles to interpret this, but it does sound a little ominous to me.
