I too sleep with a weapon and will react to any intrusion the same I you. I just pray I do not have to.

That's the problem I have with dynamic entries. I believe such entries should be the last resort to save someone's life, not to seize drugs or other contraband.

I'm a strong supporter of local law enforcement, but I also have the right to discuss policy.

I don't blame the particular cops who entered this granny's house. If I had been a cop, I would have done the same.

I blame the policy that tells cops it's OK to decide which house to enter by looking at the bigger house or by flipping a coin. That's a police administrative issue and a local political issue.

Nothing against cops personally.

Why not, it's easier and cleaner to catch the drug lab on the table than to fish it out of the sewer pipe or septic tank.

I can go with that.

I do disagree and think that entries are sometimes necessary, but should not be the first line of response.
