I don't differentiate between ANYBODY who tries to knock DOWN my door.

And the needle doesn't care what arm it goes into. Good luck.

Right, sweetcheeks. And self defense is still valid, as the Supremes AND the state Supremes have affirmed time and again. You as a cop are not given some special dispensation to break down doors just 'cause you got a badge. In fact, you are supposedly held to a HIGHER standard than I am. So door breaking the wrong house can (and SHOULD) get you killed. You have NO AUTHORITY to use the tactics you do. You have the POWER, yeah, but you have no legitimate authority and you're scared to death somebody will realize that. Killing a cop who breaks and enters is not a whit different from killing an ordinary burglar or other home-invasion robber in the eyes of the law. Unless your buds are gonna plant a lot of Barbra Streisand evidence afterwards, which seems to happen quite a bit, thug.
