Yes it does. [Mad]
I don't care if they have all their paperwork in order and they were at the right house and he has 1000lb of pot in his basement, there is just ZERO justification for SWAT teams conducting no-knock raids in the dark of night anywhere in the United States of America. Period.
SWAT teams should be relegated to hostage rescue and active shooter situations and that's it and NEVER should American police be conducting no-knock raids unless absolutely necessary to save lives.
Three sides to every story.. His side.. cop side.. and truth..
If they royally screwed the pooch, then yes.. they are screwed monetarily.
Even if they did not screw up and he did shoot first, the refusal of medical attention... Really? Were they getting their stories together
Sad...makes me wonder what kind of intel cops do to kick a marine's door down with a wife and kids inside. Reminds me of the video someone poste a while back where the cops shot the dogs in front of the kids.
Just read it again, smells like a hit to me. I don't know for sure, never been at a cops gunpoint...but don't they usually instruct someone to drop a weapon? And 71 rounds? Nothing fired from the homeowner? Smells crooked.
I'm no liberal but 71 rounds is a little excessive! Guess they're not into precision shooting?
In the army we'd be reamed for 71 rounds during CQB!
I hate to jump to conclusions but the whole story sounds a little suspect?
Sounds like one of the ninjas got scared when they kicked the door and piddled down his leg causing an ND which then cost the tax payers a lot of ammo. Thats messed up, even if he did have 200lbs of pot (which they are usually pretty quick to announce) thats no reason to light him up like that!
