What happened in Atlanta was a disgrace and a tragedy. The libs go too far as far as the police are involved, but there’s no getting around what a clusterf**k that was. Here in Virginia last year, a SWAT team member accidentally killed a man while they were serving a warrant on him for suspected online gambling. Online Gambling. SWAT TEAM.

Those cops in Atlanta need to be indicted for first degree murder.

So what would they do if while in the process of searching the home, they found 3 pistols? Would that warrant every officer emptying their magazines in the poor guy?

Too late, they cut a deal for manslaughter and 10 years, probably be out in much less than that.
If it were you or me pulling that crap?
We’d be executed and THEN buried beneath the courthouse!

a SWAT team member accidentally killed a manI believe the word you should be using in place of "accidentally" is "negligently".

Those cops in Atlanta need to be indicted for first degree murder.I think two have pleaded and are in jail, the other is going to trial, should be given life.

Yeah, there’s way too much Barney Fife and way too little Sheriff Andy these days.
Problem is, once Barney gets to be Sheriff, Andy can’t get hired.

What's the problem with 'no-knock' searches? They tend to get people killed Not to mention that a “no-knock” search at Oh-Dark-Thirty is pretty the definition of an unreasonable search, and thus is prohibited by the Constitution, warrant or no warrant.

A few embarrassing scenes like that would curb the enthusiasm for no-knock raids. What's needed is for such raids to start falling on the politicians that support them.

—as I have oft commented in the past, IMHO , most SWAT teams should be disbanded, the members issued a .38 Special and two speedloaders, given a pair of brogans with soles about an inch thick and assigned a beat about five miles long—they’d learn a lot more and do more good that way-—
