I have a neighbor who is a county sheriff. He has been for 20 plus years. He is terrified of what they have become. There is a real old guard / new guard division in Copland. This was accomplished by DHS and federal grants to cop school training. They provided all the toys too. Remember Clinton's 100,000 new cops program? That was the camel's nose. That whole Ellian Gonzalez, Waco, and Ruby Ridge thing was just so cop-sexy.

Certainly the Department of Homeland Security doesn’t have time to be checking the illegals flooding into our southern border because they need to use all this paid-time and weaponry to visually rape somebody who for all appearances seems to be minding her own business...

Priorities, people!

They’d probably drag you off site and torture you until you told them where the camera was.

I’d tell them that it was streaming to a remote server and everything they were doing would become public, even if they killed me.

Here is one outcome of this recklessness. I hope these parents get justice

Yep,

And the cops charged the parents. Because it was their fault the cops tossed a flash bang into the crib.

Outward swinging door is a lot more difficult to kick in. It would take something like a Halligan tool to pry it.

Keep it up and a whole lotta folks will bite back. It's just a matter of time.

That is why now is the time to start identifying THOSE WHO GIVE THE ORDERS. Learn who they are, where they live and work, their travel habits, their recreation. They should be the primary targets if they force us to defend ourselves. They must have "accidents" or simply disappear.

Every agent AND HIS FAMILY should be put through the same thing. If this crap doesn’t stop people are going to start fighting back. Personally, I hope everyone of them .... in the so called line of duty.

When are cops going to be trained on the constitution and trained to follow it? When is a politician going to start making noise?

Well!These guys normally conceal their faces just like our Islamic terrorist pals do to hide their Identity.

Just imagine if the Nazi SS units were smart enough to do that. Thousands of the SS bastards would have gotten away with murder.

If there was no search warrant, then of course, this is an flagrant unconstitutional violation of rights, and heads should roll. Even if there was a warrant, the described force used was way overboard and excessive.

But the story seems very incomplete. It is presented as a completely random attack by police. Was it the wrong address? Was there a reason given?

I recently read that in 1980 there were 3,000 SWAT raids, this year there were 80,000!

Whether there was a warrant or not, or a wrong address or not, the actions are those of a Secret, unaccountable, Police Force.

How many Secret Police give rhyme or reason for the destruction they cause?

Edwards requested to see the agents’ identification but was not obliged. One officer pointed to his uniform that read ‘POLICE’ and allegedly said, “Isn’t this enough ID for you?”

Secret police is secret.

That’s not the right person to see in a naked and handcuffed thread.

We should probably click on an ad whenever the British press runs stories like this. Reward them for writing stories that our own press will not.

Hurricane codes require the door to open OUTWARD.

People that live in areas where the stinking gooberment can tell you what kind of damned door you have to have and what way it must open have my sentiment and pity.

I'm sure your code enforcers would piss themselves if they encountered my door. It'll damn sure withstand a hurricane and a pervert with a flash bang or a Haligan.

But then, I don't need a damned nanny state to tell me what I should or shouldn't do in a hurricane or a home invasion.

Screw 'em.

FUBO.

I believe the article I read was a response to this incident. They simply threw the concussion grenade in without looking first.
