Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
I've had someone kick down my door in a home invasion. Believe me when I say you don't have time to think about who it is. If you're a law abiding citizen you'll have no reason to suspect that it's the police.

Reminds me of WMD claim and invading Iraq. Really bad information provided. If I was a chief of an agency, I would make everybody employed there read "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu. Chapter 13 is really important.
This is a pretty amazing story...on a lot of levels. The most amazing thing is that he wasn't shot. Thankfully the homeowner, and most of the officers, had the presence of mind to immediately recognize what was happening and that something had gone terribly wrong. A lot of restraint shown by officers (luckily for them) and a lot of excellent communication by the homeowner.
What a FUBAR situation.

Don't wanna get shot by the police?

We bought doors and replaced them if we broke them. Some departments contract the work and others do the work in house.
Replacing doors is much cheaper than having an officer on site securing the property.
PG County today is what DC was 20 years ago. PG County PD had quite the reputation when I lived in the area. I'm sure having the DoJ observing them with a microscope for the past 20 years has had some impact on their activities. My personal favorite was years ago some of PG County's finest didn't have time to wait around at the county line to turn over someone wanted in next door Montgomery County, so they did what any enterprising officer would do. They cuffed him to a light post on the county line and let dispatch pass along the location for the Montgomery County officers to come pick him up. Then there were the PG County K9 officers who seriously stated that they let a K9 bite a bystander because the dog was in need of some on the job training.
This gentleman was extremely lucky. No telling how the story would be told if he was dead. If I were him, I would buy a lottery ticket just to see how much luck he has left over.
No one pointed out that he did exactly what Joe Biden suggested?
I feel bad for the situation. I’m not at all in LE, so I have no idea how this could have been avoided, but I certainly understand wanting to protect your daughter.
Obviously not a golfer.
Both the homeowner and the police are very fortunate no one was killed. Scary situation for the innocent.
