I said in my very first post on this thread that the "raid" was terribly mishandled.

It wasn't "mishandled" it was corrupt from the start.

But, the feds were ENTIRELY justified in executing a search warrant of the compound - a compound that the feds themselves believed to be holding an arsenal of weapons, including grenades.

Funny, the warrant was based on illicit drug use not weapons charges or child abuse. They didn't even have hearsay evidence of that they made it up out of whole cloth.

No, the search warrant was based entirely on suspicion of federal firearms violations. Read a book.
