“aspiring Marine”
Is that like aspiring rap artist? Beside, this was a probation raid on a trailer park, so the situation was not as peachy as we’d like to believe.
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America, except within the confines of a trailer park.
No, probably more like:
- Has been to recruiter
- Has past tests
- Has a good enough GPA
- Has no criminal background
- Doesn’t use drugs
- Is keeping excellent physical condition
...like many 17 year olds that have made up their minds they want to be a Marine.
I don’t care what the situation “might have been”, this is what happens when police are militarized and believe they are above the average citizen. They seem to believe that peoples rights stop when they think so. Obviously this woman was a problem waiting to happen.
So, by your self holier than thou standards, only sub humans live in trailer parks? I know many decent, lawabiding, honest, hardworking individuals that happen to live in trailerparks. That is, I thought I did until this morning. By your standards, they are the scum of the earth.

Depends on how you want to define “trailer park”.
Lots of them are actually RV parks where most of them cost north of $500,000 and the park models are around $150,000.
Sooooo...the Constitution excludes persons living in trailer parks. When did it become unconstitutional to answer the door while armed, especially when directly asked by the young men, who was outside and the cop did not reply. Many people in this day and age would be armed while questioning who was at their door, prior to opening the door. If I didn’t know the person, God knows I would be armed.
WTF is that supposed to mean??? I lived in a “trailer park” when I was a tyke and my dad was off flying helicopters in Vietnam.
There were two officers there serving that warrant — not just one — so there should not have been a fear factor for the officer knocking on the door.
If they believed that there was going to be trouble then they would have brought more officers with them to allay their fears — but they didn’t.
