The Remarkable Life of FBI Special Agent Jerry Crowe – 1924-2017
Jerome K. “Jerry” Crowe, a retired FBI special agent who played a significant role in major cases and founded the bureau’s first SWAT team in Los Angels,
died
following a longtime battle with Alzheimer’s disease, The Daily Breeze reports.
Were they all playing the innocent home owner receiving a “no knock” blast?
Probably not, because they weren’t also shot.
they must have named the training center after him.
Summer Camp for JBT’s.
I wonder what training facility the Uvalde SWAT team was trained at.
i wonder who goofed.
civie or fed.
Training practice with live explosives? That is brilliant high IQ stuff there... Who beeds enemies when you have training instructors?
First, Pray that they accept Christ as redeemer..
A considerable number of the FBI people are downright evil unbelievers. Their culture breeds contempt for Christians, conservatives, constitutionalists and government worship.
We also have to keep in mind that SWATs are over utilized and often carried out against citizens for non violent crimes.
prayers up for them and their loved ones.
( the suspicious part of me wonders if this is more deep state purging of patriots that honor oaths )
Reminds me of Shakespeare (Hamlet):
“For ‘tis the sport to have the enginer
Hoist with his own petard; and ‘t shall go hard
But I will delve one yard below their mines
And blow them at the moon. O, ‘tis most sweet
When in one line two crafts directly meet.”
The “petard” bit has become a byword for having something (literally or figuratively) blow up in your face (a la Fani Willis).
The “petard” was a French bomb w/ a slow fuse (c. 1500s) used for busting down castle doors.
Not to make light of others’ embarrassing calamity, however.
“Three shall be the count...”
“I wonder what training facility the Uvalde SWAT team was trained at.”
It is clear, they took classes on line. On a game simulator.
What a bunch of crap.
The real hero was a Border patrol agent who was texted by his wife that there was a problem.
He did not hesitate.
Nobody in charge took any useful action.
( the suspicious part of me wonders if this is more deep state purging of patriots that honor oaths )
Knowing what “swat” is capable of, that would be the last thought on my mind.
Consistent opponent of no knock raids for at least twenty five years. They haven’t improved over time and are the political arm of the police state in which we all reside.
No kittens or puppies were harmed in this training exercise.” - ASPCA
Sounds like an explosive breaching exercise gone bad.
16 SWAT officers hospitalized......well that’s a start.
