This is more good news and if these out of control police raids continue more of them deserve to be shot.
SWATing is out of control.
Meritless Garland to blame.
yup
Media Has Total Meltdown Over Kyle Rittenhouse Verdict Youtube video 8:20
Yes, and this sounds like a righteous self-defense verdict also. The prosecutors seem pissed and are trying to give him thirty years on that single firearms charge.
And I know the police claim they announced themselves. They always claim that. It's a little hard to hear over the battering ram and gunfire.
Good. Cops have gone over board by going after “easy” targets when they should not and ignoring “hard” tragets like antifa rioters when they should.
Wait a second...I thought he would be convicted because of his swarthy nature? Dats whut MSDNC and CNN and da watchington post told me, duh...
I disagree with those that are saying “If Rittenhouse had been black, he would not have been acquitted.” They are wrong. If he were black, he would never have even been charged.
It happened in 2017 actually...? Well before Merritt Garland was enshrined at Justice??
I completely agree with you that SWAT tactics in the middle of the night is way beyond useful in so many cases. These Keystone cops get a big head and develop bad habits when they are enshrined in special weapons units.
Frankly, legalizing marijuana is going to take a lot of the wind out of the sales of these kind of groups. They’re going to have to go after people that are actually into harder stuff, and leave the rest of the general public alone.
Sales = sails. Stupid autocorrect. I’m tired of its shirt!
Midnight no-knock raids need to be banned. They really do.
The sheriff raided a home I rented to a frail elderly couple. They used all their SWAT gear, an armored car and smashed in the door. This couple had no guns and there was zero reason to believe they’d be dangerous. They had 48 pot plants maybe eighteen inches tall. The only reason I can think they used this approach was to give the SWAT guys overtime pay and maybe some training-wheel experience. The government does not pay for damage, which was pricy and unnecessary.
I am of the opinion that these raids should be signed off on by the governor. You’d quickly see them go down to the number where they were actually required. I think they’d be required if there was a hostage situation, where evidence might be destroyed, or, some situation where they were deemed the only safe alternative.
The vast majority of arrests can be made while the subject is at work, at a gas station or a grocery store parking lot. The fact that Congress gifted all that military equipment to sheriff’s offices is because it’s a jobs program for those equipment manufacturers. Not because after two hundred years of arrests they suddenly are dealing with foreign armies in our neighborhoods. And, if there were such armies, those lightly armored vehicles would be useless against an RPG7.
I’m beginning to hate our modern, militarized police. That, and the fact they are monetizing the law to fund themselves. If the community needed the level of cost this funding carries, it should pay it in taxes. You’d quickly see how much policing we REALLY needed.
He was convicted of possession of a firearm by a felon and the state will seek the maximum 30 year sentence on that charge.
? Tossed an RPG at them or what ?
just a big club
“...and took fire from Coffee upon which they had no choice but to protect themselves and others,” Flowers said via text.”
Well, except for the dead girlfriend that they murdered.
Sounds like Mr. Coffee needed that weapon.
