just another fun and games for guys that couldn't make it in spec ops but really like wearing the balaclava, black helmets and body armor with dynamic entrances. What is the point? I'll gladly show them how to do a snatch and grab so that they never have to blow down a door again. But it just doesn't look as cool, does it?
Oh and by the way, innocent people have been killed. But they're poor so it just doesn't matter.
How come they don't do this to the MS-13, Crips, Blood, LK's or Mexican Mafia? They KNOW they've got drugs and guns. But it's easier to go after grannies and guys with kids in their house. I like LEO's. I shoot with them. But puhleeze, anybody with half a brain knows that these are just PR knock downs in order to justify increasing budgets and maybe, just maybe they get to buy more toys.....like an APC...or hell a real tank. That would be great, huh?
Fueled With Drug Enforcement Money, Military-Style Police Teams Are Exploding In The Backwoods Of Wisconsin
-snip-
Wendy Olveda, five months pregnant, was on the computer preparing lessons for the fifth-grade class she teaches at Markesan Elementary School. Jesus, her husband, was in the bedroom reading, and their 3-year-old daughter, Zena, was passing the time quietly on a couch.
Suddenly the door burst open and several armed men in black uniforms burst into the home. Within seconds Wendy and her husband, Jesus, were thrown roughly face down to the floor and ordered to put their hands behind their heads.
My thoughts exactly. And why is it they can't seal off the border?
They would run into more than some scared homeowner with a 12ga. and then their toys would be really be put to the test. More than the homeowner and dog would be down. A PR SWAT bust makes for good video on the evening news. The lack of pre-raid intelligence in these situations amazes me. Perhaps they should consider calling a local cab company first so they could at least get the right address.
On the show COPS, they're always stopping some car down the street leaving a "known drug house." Always wondered why they don't just bust the drug house?
