Yes. You can be arrested for disorderly conduct in your own home. Of course, it depends on the type of disorderly conduct you do. If you are home alone and you throw pillows against the wall, that should be ok. It would not be acceptable on a busy street with cars driving past and people walking by. If you set up a loud boom box at 3 am and wake up all the neighbors, that would be disorderly conduct in your own home. The cops could arrest you.

How can you be arrested at your own home for disorderly conduct just for sitting on your front porch after refusing to answer police officers questions?
That, of course, is YOUR side of the story as well as your defense.Disorderly conduct must occur in a public place or a place where it can be witnessed by members of the general public. If you were INSIDE your own home and acted in a disorderly manner there probably would not have been grounds for arrest. However, the fact that it occurred outside, on your front porch, in view of any members of the passing public that mattered. It is doubted that you were simply politely "refusing to answer offcer's questions."

1. Is it legal to search a home with a warrant? YES 2. Can a person be arrested if a weapon is found? YES, if the circumstances warrant it.

No matter if a person is otherwise the legal owner of a weapon (firearm), if drugs are found then the person does not have the legal right to own or possess the firearm: drugs and weapons DON'T MIX, even if the weapon owner has a concealed firearms permit or otherwise legally owns the firearm. 3.

Is it against the law to block access to a post office?
Are you referring to the office itself, or a mailbox? Under what additional circumstances? If you're referring to the actual office, it's likely you would be arrested for "disorderly conduct", and advised of criminal trespass. Regarding mailboxes, in general, you may block your own mailbox without consequence (other than the mailman won't deliver your mail); however, blocking anyone else's may result in a civil suit or, depending on the area, be an infraction. However, this is my knowledge in general. You would need to refer to, or specify, the statutes of your local governments.
