The officers on the entry team are not at fault

Cool. Does that mean us non-LEOs aren't responsible for anything we do either? Next time I get stopped for speeding can I say it's "not my fault" and get away it?

arm chair QB's who haven't the nerve to do the job others do.

I guess that I, and others here, lack the bravery and courage to kick down the door of a couple of senior citizens and send both of them to the hospital.

You guys live in a fantasy world. I was on a SWAT team and can speak about this procedure from an experts point of view. This is how it works in laymans terms. Officer gets a search warrant base on his testimony to a judge. He calls us and says I have a warrant to hit a house. He gives us description and address. We drive by and do a look over and plan raid. If address and description match what is written in the warrant we saddle up and execute warrant. Once scene is secure we leave.

Bottom line, officer who gets the warrant and gives the info to the SWAT team is at fault and retains culpability for the veracity of the info. SWAT goes where it is asked and has the lawful instrument supporting that position. Research the actual procedure involved before condemning all who are on scene.

Right on. We do not get on the sounds of bones breaking and beating up individuals who cannot fight back. What cowards they are.
