There is no justification for this kind of action by those who "serve & protect"! Most of the LEOs I have know are great people, but I have lived long enough to see a tremendous increase in this gung-ho attitude that sees every citizen as a potential perp!
The action taken in this incident was, according to another report that I read, in violation of the warrant that they had. Hell, the Locl Chief of Police wasn't even told this was going down.
How would you ever get over the trauma of something like this happening in your home? Thank God that there were no children there.
I've often thought about a "wrong address" scenario happening in the middle of the night. What would you do if your front door was crashed in and the storm troopers came running through, weapons in hand, as you tried to awaken enough to figure out what was happening.
Had this happened in my house I and not a few other people would be quite full of holes... and people would be screaming at my corpse for being a "cop killer".
I know that accidents happen, but with a little research one can see that things like this are far too frequent.
I hope that heads roll, and that this violated family receives an astronomical settlement.
Who was it that said that those who would trade liberty for security deserve neither?.
This "war on drugs" is getting more and more out of hand every day.
No wonder The Gooberment wants us disarmed.
