What if you owned: weed/drugs, illegal firearms, items which could be used for potential murder, negative opinions about the fascist government?

This argument is shallow to the point where fascism is what you’re advocating here for. So what, if you did own something thats not law abiding - without any credible proof there is nothing there, and non of anybody’s interest.
