This is very disturbing and the reason why people are becoming more and more fearful of government all the time.

It sounds like they broke the exact same civil rights laws that the Rodney King cops were sentenced for.

I suspect these guys have prison time in their future.

Youtube could end the reign of the Good ol’ Boy.

Maybe its just the ease of communicating over the Internet, but there seem to be more and more of these stories. Do the police just ignore the Fourth Amendment these days?

Dekalb County, Ga will soon be owned by this family.

My husband would’ve killed every last one of those thugs if they’d come to our home like that. Thank God we live in a place where our Sheriffs are decent people who uphold their oaths!

They come to collect a debt in the middle of the night?

Who sends LEO to collect unpaid debts (that are normally turned over to a collection agency unless it was a fine - story only says "fee")?

Just another example of LEO stepping over the bounds of decency. Just like unnecessary no-knock raids, why not just wait for the perp to walk out of the house? Not enough of a rush? I hope the county is sued to the ground, but hopefully the rules will be changed to disallow these kinds of threatening tactics.

The cops are talking like uneducated street thugs...............

I certainly don't approve of the cops behavior, but it sounds like there is a back-story here that we don't know. Also, the tape is edited, and we never actually hear the "wrong" address that the cops are supposedly shouting. Pretty ugly regardless, though.

” The family hopes to hire a lawyer and press charge against the DeKalb Police Department, but they lack the funds to do so. They are hoping that the video will spread awareness of the incident and someone will agree to represent them without charge.”

Are they kidding? There are thousands of lawyers who will gladly represent them. Not for free, but for a third of the settlement. So they won’t have to put any money up front. They should have representation by tomorrow afternoon.

Clearly, the police and other government agencies have insufficient powers to go after the terrorists.

We have only ourselves to blame for their frustration and poor morale-—and the consequences thereof.

If only we give them *more* power, we’ll stop seeing these stories because they’ll be able to go after the *real* threat.
