Police blew up an innocent man’s house in search of an armed shoplifter. Too bad, court rules.

Just like on the Reyna threads back in the day, right?
Tell me, how did that work out for you?

He broke into the house, pulled a gun on a child in the house, then started shooting at the police when they arrived. You can criticize the damage to the house, but calling him a shoplifter is pure BS.

Wonder what they would have done if he’d killed someone?

I wonder what they would have done if he didn't turn in his banned firearm?

Yet FReepers say that most will be on our side if the country goes full civil war...…

“I am sure that was on the cops mind after he started shooting at them.”

Ah. Twenty-two comments before the boot-lickers showed up. I expected better...

You are aware that other Swat teams were able to perform captures on similarly dangerous suspects without destroying houses, right?
Only place that thought this was normal was Philadelphia, the city that bombed itself.

FWIW, he is in jail serving a 100 year sentence for attempted manslaughter, amongst other charges. But sure, if you want to buy into the left wing comPost narrative that he was a poor shoplifter, go for it.

Okay - so who’s house was it? Did the guy just randomly chose a house to run into then the cops blow it up? If they wanted the guy blowing up the house would have killed him just as much as bullets. Why should the homeowner suffer the loss?

If there was a 400k insurance payout the real suit is yet to come. The insurance company who surely has a legal dept will be bringing a suit that the city will lose or may even settle.

Just posted re: what I read here about the shirt and belts; so does that make FR a left wing compost narrative?

“The lie: He wasn’t shafted.”

Considering he was fully compensated, how was he shafted?

The son rented from his father who owns the building.

The court acknowledged that this may seem “unfair,” but when police have to protect the public, they can’t be “burdened with the condition” that they compensate whoever is damaged by their actions along the way.

The police don't have to protect the public.
