I only heard the siren for a few seconds. I would have assumed, if I heard it in my house, that it was a cop pulling somebody over. It was on and then it was off. They yelled from outside the door. If I was watching tv in the farthest room of that house, I don’t think I would have understood what they were saying until the fog cleared in my head while hearing someone beating on my door. And if I were on the toilet with the fan on, then I wouldn’t have heard any of this stuff clearly. We run our fan in our bathroom all the time. It’s to drown out the noise outside our bedroom.

I don’t know much about SWAT procedures, but why do these cops have sunglasses on looking into a dark house? (I don’t know if you know. Maybe someone else can explain.)

It sounded like a car alarm to me. I've never heard a siren that sounded like that.

Because it looks cool.

It’s for that machismo, “Terminator” effect.

I would have far more respect for Barney Fife walking up with a warrant in-hand saying, “Sorry to intrude on your day, but I have this here warrant that allows me to enter your home to look for whaky tobacky.”

Sadly, few in today’s law enforcement have that kind of courage or respect for their fellow citizens.
