petitfour: They killed a man in his house. They lied about sirens. They searched two other houses in the neighborhood because their bullets must've strayed. Or that is what they make it sound like. Now where is the warrant?

max americana: Those sheriff scum even lied and recanted the previous statement.

They also held back paramedics for an hour until they were sure he bled to death.

This obscene SWAT murder madness is everywhere. SWAT teams have become like WWII Buzz Bombs over London - they hit each night, smash into a house and kill people, and walk away grinning. And they don't need a warrant, you don't have to be guilty of anything, they are never held to account for their killings and maimings - and you never know if you're next.

This is jackboot insanity, nothing less. This is what generations of American died fighting to prevent happening here.

But it's here.

Your post is spot-on. I used to be one of those people who was of the “Law Enforcement is Always right” - but over the last five years, I’ve changed my tune.

While I hate to possibly invoke Godwin’s Law, this type of increasing incident seems to remind me of jack-booted thugs from an earlier time who had no respect for human right or the rule of law.

This is jackboot insanity, nothing less. This is what generations of American died fighting to prevent happening here.

This Marine was murdered by these jackboot thugs. This Marine served in Iraq to help protect our Freedoms, only to be gunned down in cold blood by these thugs.

Most SWAT teams relish the thought of acting like RAMBO. These SWAT thugs live to carry out violence so they can get their high. Damn them all.

SWAT teams are an affront to the ideals of our Republic. Our Founders would be appalled at the insane lurch towards a police state.

I cringe every time I see on TV these animals with SWAT on their uniforms. It makes me feel as those I am in a Police State. I doubt very few SWAT thugs think much of our Constitution.

“...SWAT teams have become like WWII Buzz Bombs over London...” and “...jakboot insanity..”

No, actually, a better WWII analogy would be Gestapo and SS Einsatzgruppen smashing in doors, looking for “enemies of the State” and killing everything that shows even the slightest resistance in the house.

Buzz Bombs were just sort of “thrown” across the channel, not knowing where they’d land. This is focused, directed, and intentional. And you are correct - the Jackboot IS here, now. And they’re bold and arrogant because they’re invincible in their nice shiny black uniforms, body armor and riot shields, and little German submachine guns - they think.

Complaints and indignation won’t reverse this course we’re on. I’m sure the Jews and other “enemies of the State” in Germany were indignant too - as they were being led away to gas chambers or just before they were shot dead and murdered in their beds.

Why is it NOT murder when SWAT teams shoot the wrong person?

This is jackboot insanity, nothing less. This is what generations of American died fighting to prevent happening here.

Through a successful, decades-long campaign of fear-mogering by the media and elected officials of both parties entrenching in the minds of Americans that there should be a "War on Everything", we've finally gotten the police force that we've collectively asked for.

And this police force looks less like Mayberry, USA and more like Bogotá, Columbia. Great job, my fellow Americans! You asked for it. You got it.
