I am not anti-law-enforcement, but If folks were to take the time to visit sites such as the Marshall Project, the National Institute for Justice et al, they'd see how common it actually is and how often it involves SWAT. Police kill an average of between 10 and 11 hundred people a year which is more than the next 26 of our allied countries combined. We also have the highest incarceration rate of any other countries in world. What we have are militarized and weaponized police agencies across the country thanks to the DOD's 1033 program which includes fully automatic weapons, armored vehicles, grenade launchers, and of course tactical equipment just to name a few. Police also employ Stingray technology, ALPR's, and have occasionally deployed ADS against peaceful, law abiding protestors.
@luv2fly352 all good points....but they put a big ol' lock on the door without knocking first and it was on the wrong door...idiots

@DIABLISS No-knock-warrants are nothing new and whether they're at the correct address or not, is always a secondary consideration, hence, wasted resources, people falsely detained and/or arrested, and all too often, the police leave a trail of blood behind.
@luv2fly352 if the lady that answered the door had gotten argumentative with them, they probably would have shot her...and there were SEVERAL POLICEMAN...not one or two. so they all just went along shaking their bobble heads and agreed to put a lock on and then ring the doorbell.

@DIABLISS The SCOTUS ruled long ago that police are allowed to use "deceptive tactics," e.g. they are allowed to lie to you, but under penalty of law, you cannot lie to them so when any casual police encounters turn into a "Terry stop" (Terry V. Ohio 1968) your best defense when questioned by the police is to invoke your right to remain silent and demand an attorney. Any criminal defense attorney worth his/her salt will tell you the exact same thing. There's no need to "argue" with cops, just follow the above info and keep your mouth shut. Simple.
@luv2fly352 True. People have been beaten and even killed for daring to ask [b]why[/b] they were being detained.

@bijouxbroussard Indeed they have.
@luv2fly352 their were no deceptive tactics!....THEY HAD THE WRONG HOUSE!
