As I was not a witness, Anthony was not shot through a wall. That is the first I have heard of that. Any other person would have ran to arm themselves if they woke up to a bunch of guys dressed in all black with black masks busted in their house during dark hours. I guess we'll never know the real story, maybe that was the cops intent. It's unfortunate that they THOUGHT they had their mind made up about him before they entered.... what's that old saying about ASSUMING.... you make an ASS out of yourself.. Well they sure did make an ass out of themselves. Now they have to live with this the rest of their life.

I'm coming to believe that the price is too high. Decriminalizing drug use, while it wouldn't be cost free to society, would at least reduce the frequency of the government acting like storm troopers against its own citizens. That's in addition to putting the squelch on the rivers of cash that flow into the hands of the drug providers, and back out into violence and corruption to keep that traffic flowing.
