I think the idea is that you can solve it later in court vs having a fist or firefight each time you think the cop is entering your house illegally.

I really don't care what the court says - if they ain't got a warrant, they're entering illegally and are thus subject to being killed.

Didn't the police somewhere just kill a Marine Veteran that SERVED THIS COUNTRY in Iraq? Seems that it's OK in the judge's eyes for the cops to kill people defending their property, but it's not OK for people to protect that for which they have worked.

This country is getting more and more like NAZI Germany.

The cop was invited in by the woman ~ a resident there. He didn't need a warrant to enter under that condition. The man had already informed the cop that he'd moved out ~ which mean he was no longer a resident.

So, it's not an issue involving a cop doing something unlawful, but rather an issue where a non resident decided to physically abuse a cop otherwise lawfully occupied who just happened to be there.

The law, in general, provides that you can't just go beat up people 'cause you feel like doing it.

It should be that the cop entering illegally loses his pensions, goes to jail and held responsible for anything that resulted as a result of his raid. That’ll make them think 100X. And the town pays a few million to the violated person. That would also make them hire some good law professors to lecture the cops.

But now they have nothing to lose.
