But it's fun!

SWAT teams have to have something to do.

Good, let the facts come out in court.

But of course this will not abate the cop hating anarchists on FR who will try to paint every police dept. with a broad brush.

You don't want the SWAT teams and MJTF's to have to go around messing with armed men do you?

That could be dangerous!

In one SWAT operation, U.S. Attorney Lewis said over 150 shots were fired into the home occupied only by an elderly gentleman( I believe he said 73 years old). The man was unarmed, even though at the time, the police reported he was armed. Makes you wonder about how mistakes are covered up.

Oh come on, Officer Friendly here wouldn't hurt a fly.

(That's cuz he can't see a fly through his mask. Your 3 year old kid or grandmother are in grave danger though.)

Geeze, didn't know Nero was the guv of florida already...

Good job, _Fed. Nicely done, again.

No, she would be handing out medals, not indictments.

Nothing like this could ever happen, in the city that fgave us the "Miami River Cops" murders. But Georgia, that's another matter.

"Acting on a Bad Tip, Cobb SWAT Team Attacks Wrong Man's Apartment At 0300, 'Accidentally' Firing Submachinegun, All Officers Cleared In Minor BooBoo, Thread Two."

Officers lied to investigators, conspired in the cover-ups, and used throw down weapons.

Oh, come on. Throw down weapons? What - were they watching old Dragnet episodes again?
(That is such an old ploy).

cop hating anarchists

Would that be all Americans who do not enjoy polishing the soles of muddy jackboots as much as some folks here do?

Isn't it interesting that the feds which are despised by so many cop haters are the ones who did investigation and pressed charges. How come Ashcroft is letting this happen ? What about the NWO ?

I thought all federales were corrupt and out to kill innocents whenever they can ?

This doesn't fit the federal cop hater worldview properly.

But they were allowed to keep their homes intact as a reward for being unarmed.

So, let's see, . . . . If I don't think cops should wrongly deprive citizens of their lives -- and that cops who DO so murder their fellow citizens should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, I am somehow a "cop-hating anarchist?"

Hmmm. Interesting concept, Dane. Very interesting, indeed.

Seems to me that your worldview just about makes the entire world a "free-fire" zone for cops.

Not all of us are Cop hating Anarchists, as you put it. Some of us appreciate the fact that the police are their when we call 911, they have a tough job and they have to worry about some psycho shooting them every day. However, we do not look favorably upon them when they break into the wrong house & shoot somebody, shoot a suspect that is laying on the ground etc........ My point is that we want the facts to come out and clear the innocent to, but we also want the bad cops and DEA & FBI agents punished when they break the law & kill innocent people.

Pardon me if I reveal my ignorance, but what's a "throw down weapon?"

Talk about "painting with a broad brush"! Look who's calling the kettle black!

Most of the shooting I partake in is with LEOs, and they have just as much a problem with corrupt officers and/or the paramilitary mouth-breathers as many of us here do. Something to do with "respect for the law" and "the rights of citizens".
