“SWAT teams are for violent situations”.
I understand when SWAT is sent in on a situation where there are hostages or major bad guys (like the D.C. snipers for example). I understand that but to send them for unpaid student loans etc.. is ridiculous. What’s next? Unpaid parking tickets? To me, this is more than just a big issue. It is downright FRIGHTENING!!
Several years ago a city used a SWAT team to conduct a no-knock on a family. A 2 yr old child was held at gun point during the raid.
The offense? The father was suspected of exceeding his limit while fishing that day.
