The problem is this type of idiocy appears to be occurring with greater frequency nationwide.

I don’t see that it is more common based on statistics but the problem is that it should never happen and the benefit certainly doesn’t out weigh the life lost in this kind of situation. We shouldn’t be having babies getting burned with smoke grenades and getting shot by cops who kick doors down in a situation that is totally uncontrollable. It just doesn’t make any sense. Also I still believe in the idea of warrants when the individuals who are being served are treated like human beings something that doesn’t disappear simply because they are suspected of growing some weed or running a meth lab.

It might be different if this kind of tactic were actually working but it clearly isn’t so you can’t even say that this kind of accident is offset by the clear benefit to society which is something I always find to be a suspect idea because any kind of tyranny can be justified under the guise of public good. Millions of Jews went into the furnaces in the service of what the National Socialist Party in Germany defined as the greater good. All should be wary of the wide use of that justification.
