Yeah. The no-knock warrants are great if the police don’t abuse the privilege. They did, though. Innocent people have died.

And let’s be frank: Those are usually drug war related. It’s time to end that one.

I wonder if no-knock raids in some circumstances can save lives. Example being the hot one from last year where the unarmed lady was killed. It was first reported as a no-knock raid, later learned they did knock, which may have gave the man time to arm himself in the hallway. He shot when they entered, she was behind him to fatally catch the return fire. If they had no-knock raided, maybe she’d be alive. I’m not a cop, so just speculating.

Many of our current social issues stem from the ill-conceived "War on Drugs".

We didn't learn the lessons taught by alcohol prohibition; crime, gangs and the contempt for law enforcement.

It is a run away train with no accountability.

The only legitimate use of a no-knock warrant is a hostage situation.
