Some tragic stories there but in IMHO it would mean more if it wasn't on salon.

I agree though that SWAT is a militarization of civilian police and the siezure laws are a violation of the Consitution.

SWAT is used more than it should because the police forces have to use them in order to maintain funding.

Well, actually, it is the SCOTUS and I hope they do the right thing.
