A terrifying helmet cam video, released to the public Wednesday, depicts a SWAT team executing a search warrant on the home of a 68-year-old woman and her 18-year-old adopted daughter. The video is raising questions of privacy, reasonable force and police due diligence. They had the wrong place.
The raid of Louise Milan and daughter Stephanie Milans Evansville, Ind. home was accompanied by the sound of shattering glass and multiple flash-bang grenades. It was all due to the Milans non-password protected Internet router, according to the Evansville Courier & Press.
The raid was prompted by a series of threatening posts directed at police chief Bolin. The officers left the Milan residence with the familys computers and cell phones. An examination of there items revealed their innocence. A neighbor had tapped into their non-secure router to send the threats.

Yes, that part at the end was kind of disturbing here they had wrongly traumatized those people and damaged their property and instead of withdrawing from the scene they are yuking it up over the damage they inflicted.
Are these types of raids necessary? Are they the potential harm to the people, pets and even the LE conducting these raids?

Apparently, the video was just released.
If it’s a arms race I’m behind the curve! Can someone tell me what gun store has the special on M-4 full auto weapons. Would also like a few doz. of those flash bang things as their good for the 4th. of July also. Been wanting a new truck but hell a APC would be way cooler. I can just see the looks on my hunting buddy’s faces as I roll up in armor.
PIG HUNTING WITH ARMOR-Damn! Also if I run into that 1000lb. pig it would be good to have a RPG-7 or two in the group.
