The fact that police found no marijuana plants or weapons has only angered neighbors further.

Thus the thin line between the War On (some) Drugs and the War On Guns is further blurred.

Suppose they had found weapons: In the absence of pot plants, gun ownership is legal and would form no legal basis for the given police action nor any after the fact justification for the raid, contrary to the implication made by the article.

" But police also cite a 1982 cocaine raid when Raymond Sander Ainge shot at a Eugene police detective after mistaking police for intruders. The shot missed"

You notice the cops have to go back 20 years to cite a case in which there actually were shots fired.This was a fun tactical exercise for them,they love to play games,we all do.But this kind of disruptive display is overkill.
