Police didn’t know children were in the home. Does that mean had the bomb exploded in the face of an adult, perhaps innocent, it would have been OK?

These so-called law officers need to be sent to prison for the rest of their lives.

It is too bad that out of control JBT’s are now flash banging children in no knock raids.

Just as it is indeed too bad that so many damn surrender monkeys grandstand on these incidents as a reason to legalize drugs.

Rational people can see the need to legally enforce drug laws. Surrendering in the WOD would only lead to more of these nazi style raids amd worse.

'No Knock Warrant' is just a euphemism for 'armed home invasion.'
The 2nd Amendment applies regardless.

There will be lots of finger pointing, lies, and cover-ups on this one, but not cops were injured, so move along, nothing to see.

A toddler was critically injured by a flashbang during an early morning SWAT raid in Georgia Wednesday.

According to Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the raid took place after a confidential informant reported he had purchased methamphetamine from Thometheva.

Law enforcement officials were familiar with Thometheva, who had prior drug and firearm related arrests. He wasn’t home at the time of the raid but was captured later on at another residence.

Cornelia Police Chief Rick Darby said the operation was a multijurisdictional effort. He added there was no indication children were present in the home.

The side of the baby’s playpen was blown open from the blast of the flashbang.

“There was no clothes, no toys, nothing to indicate that there was children present in the home. If there had been then we’d have done something different,” Darby said.

It happened in Cornelia, about 75 miles NE of Atlanta, with a population of 3,834 at the 2010 census, and they have a SWAT team? Though maybe not - multijurisdictional effort means the SWAT team could have been from anywhere (in Georgia?). No indication that children were present? So eager to use their swat team that they couldn't bother to check on children possibly being there? Or maybe they just didn't care.
