It is unfortunate the man was shot, but the SWAT and police were looking for someone who had committed murder and would be armed and dangerous.
Where did you receive that information?
It is right there in the article if you choose to READ IT!
I did read the article. It seems you're the one who failed to read it.
Try reading it again this time, very slowly, word by word.
I guess one thing would be the biggest, brightest lights you can buy. Light them up, because it’s the police way, and they will think it’s their own buddies making a mistake. They won’t shoot at a bright light, with a voice saying, “Police! Freeze! On the ground”
It’ll go like the scene in EFAD. They’ll think it’s a mistake by their own side. “Put out that light, you moron! We ARE the police!”
But I really doubt they’ll shoot at the 700L light that is blinding them.
Now, their sniper, half way up the block.....I’m not so sure.
Then, how do they justify their multi-million dollar SWAT Team budgets?
Use it or lose it.
In fact, they often consider such warrant arrest "backup" to be "field training under real world conditions."
I kid you not. SWAT Teams that are not used 100s of times a year, lose budget.
SWAT Teams that are used daily for routine police work (ratcheted way up to miltary raid proportions) get their budgets increased.
Follow the money.
You should load it up with a shift key.
Unless you like being viewed as an eight-year-old.

“SWAT Teams that are used daily for routine police work..”
Routine is right. My post 84 shows what a bunch of not-too-bright cops, and SWAT members can do. No research, or they DID need 10 goons to take down a 130 LB weakling, on a rape allegation (against the former occupant of my house) that turned out to be false, and was soon dismissed.

even eight year olds see a coward when they look at you sweetums
So you have only bad things to say about folks who can write properly?
Ghetto-fabulous.
I guess our family would be dead, too. If they were sneaking around like criminals, how would we know?
Not just sneaking around like criminals, but entering their home!
How many people will have their homes invaded before the cry is “Enough!”
No way for your family to know. I do know THIS. The cops had no right, and no reason to go traipsing through that guys house.

It is, is it?

Where'd ya go slick?
: )
To be honest, I have little sympathy for this pro-biggov, no nothing jackasses like EBH.
Even if it WAS murder(which it wasn’t), why endanger en entire neighborhood? And for God’s sake, what were they THINKING running through an innocent mans house????
These wannabe Rambos need to be PERSONALLY sued. Throw the bozos into personal bankruptcy, then we shall see how tough
they are!!
Roll into a neighborhood, everyone loaded for bear, and innocent concerned guy gets mowed down and nearly shot to death....wtf?
That don't get it in my head...not an acceptable option...Shooting innocents never seems an option to my way of thinking. Ya set it up for this, and ya know it's going to happen.

I could have been me. I’m sure you read post 84. This was no more than routine police work, and they turned it into
a near-deadly farce!
