Perhaps you could tell us where I have made up facts about other posters. And what is this "condemnation" you believe in? The only argument on the table is whether there is a legitimate right for police to protect themselves during a "drug bust". You seem to argue that 12 year olds are never a threat and therefore holding them at gunpoint is unconscionable. I argue that such a view is naive.

I want the cops to go home, alive, guaranteed. You want the cops to risk getting shot by the 12 year old. You have chosen your side, I have chosen mine.

Now who is making up facts. We’re talking about a twelve year old girl, forced at gunpoint from her bed, along with her two year old brother.

Notice how desperate you are to make her into the villain? How determined you are to contort HER into the threat? Are you telling me that a group of fully grown men are incapable of defending themselves from a 12 year old girl without the use of a firearm?

I prefer that minor children aren’t threatened with death for the “crime” of being the offspring of people accused of criminal activity.

I prefer that adults don’t contort themselves into pretzels to attempt to defend the actions of the Agents of the State.

I prefer that people don’t dishonor Free Republic by pretending that twelve year old girls yanked from their beds in a terrifying situation aren’t secretly plotting to murder every small-b*lled officer in the room.

I prefer that people don’t worship so openly at the altar of the State that they view innocent children as both expendable and deadly threats.

I prefer that people don’t blindly march lockstep when government officials blather “peace and safety” and pretend that real innocents are never mistreated or abused.

I prefer that government agents are more concerned with basic decency and the Constitutional rights of others than they are about “going home safely”.

Real brave men, terrorizing a two year old boy. I imagine he’ll grow up with a bigger pair than any of the government agents present.

How about here: Perhaps you should make your tagline, “I am a druggie who doesn’t like law enforcement so nanner, nanner, nanner.”

Unacceptable.
