Yes, that part at the end was kind of disturbing – here they had wrongly traumatized those people and damaged their property and instead of withdrawing from the scene they are yuking it up over the damage they inflicted.

Are these types of raids necessary? Are they the potential harm to the people, pets and even the LE conducting these raids?

The video provides an excellent presentation into weak points during a SWAT event. It is particularly fascinating to observe that there is little discipline surrounding the initial stacking.

It is often commented that SWAT teams are not prepared to operate on an even-force basis. The linked video presents as highly supportive of those comments.

Just sayin'.

If it’s a arms race I’m behind the curve! Can someone tell me what gun store has the special on M-4 full auto weapons. Would also like a few doz. of those flash bang things as their good for the 4th. of July also. Been wanting a new truck but hell a APC would be way cooler. I can just see the looks on my hunting buddy’s faces as I roll up in armor.
PIG HUNTING WITH ARMOR-Damn! Also if I run into that 1000lb. pig it would be good to have a RPG-7 or two in the group.
