    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.
    Someone didn't read the article.............

    The police said it was NOT a no knock.......... it was also 9am.

    I read the article ... I don't believe them when they said it was NOT a no-knock.

    And muttering "police" while busting down the door with a battering ram is still close enough to a no-knock.

    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?

    I dont need any other information other then what local officials and the Gov. determine I need.

    The article also said he had gone to bed after working the night shift plus overtime. So it was the middle of the night for him !

    ...and this has nothing to do with the laws concerning no-knocks or night-time warrants.
    Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.

    Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.

    And 9am is primetime for my sleep pattern too ... but I still don't call it middle of the night.

    I was more just making a point

    as for it being 71 rounds...

    I have a feeling the homeowner accidentally swept the muzzle on one cop and he freaked and fired... ( not saying in the wrong persay... if I was knockin down doors and someone had an AR and pointed it in my general direction .. I'd probably light em up too ) the other officers fired since that seems to happen often in these situations.. one guy fires and the rest open up too ....

    Also if my understanding on how these ops work ... The swat team just knocks on the door they are told too.. some one else picked the wrong door I'm willing to bet.

    If the story had been how these Officers lit up a drug king pin we would all be lining up to buy them a beer.

    Someone screwed the pooch and it probably wasn't just the men who pulled the triggers.

    But the wife didn't hear a knock! The cops dragging there feet on giving answers does not look good IMO.

    Also, I have to agree with Elhuero here "all I'm saying is when they do foxtrot the entire situation the "well, they're just normal people like anyone else" line gets used, and that's the end of it."

    That gets used way to much IMO.

    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!
