The cops did a SWAT team raid for a misdemeanor. Do you think that is RIGHT?

That's presuming the story contains all the facts, and I'm skeptical that it does. (The press always seems to spin a story to give more sympathy to the 'poor minority' while makeing the 'white bureaucrats' look as bad as possible.)

IF there were no priors, IF there was no evidence of violence in the past on the part of the individuals in the house, and IF the cops knew the offense in question was a misdemeanor going in, then no, it wasn't right.
