“Murder. Plain and simple. I am considering bringing this case up at the next neighborhood get together and seeing if there are other folks thinking like me that perhaps we might need to band together for protection not just against the normal crooks and whatnot but also against the armed gangs with badges.”

Think about what you are advocating. Probably 99% of the warrants are served on the correct address. On very rare occasions they invade the wrong house and kill an innocent homeowner. The way to deal with that is to SUE THE FREAKING HELL OUT OF THEM AND PROSECUTE THE RAID LEADERS. The answer is not to have neighbors automatically shooting at the cops when they arrive. Thats the recipe for anarchy and a blood bath on every police raid.

Because lawsuits worked out so well in the 1700's with our British occupiers.

Consider the words of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn:

"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!

“Think about what you are advocating.”


The only thing that I am advocating is a conversation about defense of self and nearby like minded neighbors. Why does communication frighten you?

Then maybe the cops would start to rethink this macho ninja bull-bleep. I can’t think of a downside to it.
