And they can do animal control, too!

"Teacher, why are you telling us this?"
"Well, Tommy, we want you to know that questioning authority is never a good idea. And by the way, tell your Dad not to act surprised tonight, okay?"
2)Handcuff homeowner/wife and kids.
3)Hunt down and shoot family dog.
4)Ransack house.
5)Find out at wrong house.
6)Uncuff family members, warn them not to say anything under penalty of law.
7)Leave
There are a lot more of us, then there are of them. Plenty of us have specialized military training as well. They are starting to get out of line.
Considering when Chief Daryl Gates of the LAPD came up with the concept of SWAT. Its original definition was Special Weapons Attack Team.
I’ll let you take it from there.
Jack.
This could have been written in any Fascist or Communist country to rave reviews. Goebbels would have been proud. Who the hell reads this crap? The Tactical Responder? Give me a break.
And they can do animal control, too!
No, but the widespread use of SWAT teams needs to be seriously re-examined.
Disgusting.
It's been this way for 25 years. You're just now catching on.
Disgusting-er...
Not really.
It’s original designation was Special Weapons and Tactics.
Ouch / LOL — That’s a witty way to describe it.
Comparing SWAT to Nazis is WAAAY out of line.
Nazis were honest and up front about being Nazis.
—as I have oft posted— SWAT teams should generally be disbanded, issued a .38 Special with two speedloaders, get equipped with a set of brogans with soles about an inch thick and given a beat to cover twice a night -on foot- starting about 10pm-—
There are a few times a SWAT team is needed. A couple years ago some nut job here in Pittsburgh shot and killed three policemen who responded to a family fight. Killed the three ambush style.
Pittsburgh SWAT was call out and I think they did a damn good job. In the face of constant gunfire they drove their armored car on to the lawn to get the men shot{ They didnt know that they were dead}. they didnt shoot up the house{As I would have seeing three of my co-workers killed by a coward}. They talked to him, when One of the snipers shot the AK out of his hands.
The scumbag was captured alive{ A little scuffed up} and convicted on three counts of murder and hopefully will be seeing the needle,and the judge added 80 years onto his term so he will never get to see sunshine again.
All this cop hate is really disturbing. Yeah there are bad police. Sure they screw up. Some of the people here sound like they would have rooted for the man who killed the policemen who showed up that morning.
Many so-called "SWAT" teams do the vast majority of their deployments against harmless victims. Good for them, since their tactics are so sloppy that they'd be mincemeat if they tried to attack someone with the skill and determination to fight back effectively. Not so good for their victims, though.
It is more than a bit disturbing that SWAT teams seem to have their own magazine.
I don’t know; the way that arthritic lab is holding that tennis ball in its jaws, it is clearly a vicious killer.
