I also understand why a homeowner would react violently to unknown people breaking his door down.

Also, you have to remember that a lot of druggies sleep all day and are up all night.

So when the U.S. marshals arrived at 8:30am, that to him may have felt like what 2am feels to us.

And if he was woken up abruptly he may have thought the marshals were actually drug dealers coming to take revenge on him.

Just sayin'

Entirely possible. That's why I'd like to see a requirement that the police turn on their sirens and lights the instant they hit the door. Make it clear that it's the police and not a bunch of thugs looking to rip you off or kill you.
