Funny, but not Ha-ha
The city’s SWAT team, along with celebrity cops and camera crews from Armed & Famous, broke into the wrong home during a search for two fugitives and kept an innocent woman handcuffed for 30 minutes, according to legal documents.
Oops, wrong house . . . again.

Robbers claim to be cops, bust the door down and…. get shot! This one is closer to “ha ha funny” but taken together these 2 stories are not funny at all.

This is just another good reason to De-militaterize the police departments around the country, also to stop no knock warrents.

Oh but Michael, we need to militarize the police for American citizens, but the President says we shouldn’t “militarize our border”…we gotta be sensitive to the illegal alien drug lords, terrorists, and “the good-hearted people” lookin’ for jobs.
They can kick down the doors of citizens in flagrant violation of the 4th Amendment and shoot anyone who resists, but when an armed incursion came across our border, ACCORDING TO POLICY, our Tennessee National Guardsmen had to stand down and retreat. But after Katrina in New Orleans, the National Guard was confiscating guns from law-abiding citizens (violating the 2nd, 4th, and 5th Amendments) at the time when they needed their RIGHT to armed self-defense the most.
Looks like the government has determined that we are the enemy.

“Looks like the government has determined that we are the enemy.”-Ron W.
If they try it where I am, that determination will be correct.

OT: I met Radley a couple of times. Actually talked to him a while at the latest Reasonoid gathering in DC. Cool doode.
