Oh, and by the way...
Sorry about your dog, but there are lots of replacements at the shelter.

If he’s happy then why did he file the lawsuit in the first place?
You completely fail your own “reasonableness” test.
“He probably did have insurance, but will that policy cover police action or however the insurance company would define it in there own list of exclusions.
I can see the insurance company covering fire, tornadoes & other storms, vandalism - but police action?”
They paid. The city paid his deductibles plus $5000 for temporary lodging.
You are missing a few facts.
High on meth he tried to run down a cop and then unprovoked started shooting at them when caught trying to steal a car.
When they entered the house he started shooting through the walls at them.
Lol, and did his rates triple?
“Sorry about your dog, but there are lots of replacements at the shelter.”
Both dogs are healthy!
You wonder why don’t you? How much can it cost for such insurance? Not much.
“just to get to a shoplifter of all things”
High on meth, several counts of attempted murder and attempted car theft ...
“Lol, and did his rates triple?”
Usually rates are mostly determined by the value.
“Many policies will not cover a ‘police action’..”
Most do. His did.
“If he’s happy then why did he file the lawsuit in the first place?”
More $$ to help pay for his new luxury house that replaced his 1974 relic.
I'm confused. What difference does the financial history of the house have to do with anything?
What was the house worth last month? What will it take to restore it to that value?
And do you know anyone collecting for the rope?

But this incident in the FR thread was just about as appalling on a smaller scale. No one was killed but they police were chasing a SHOPLIFTER for Christ's sake. Yes, he was armed but he was holed up in the house and they could have waited him out before he did any harm to anyone.
Like I said, this is not acceptable in the US. I hope the homeowner wins on appeal to the SC.
B.S. Purpose of government cannot override the constitution to not take from the citizens.
And now it is worth three times more... :)
I actually posted the reassessment comment before I read your reply about how he had indeed already collected on it well. But I still think some sort of compensation is due from the police. Maybe the insurance companies lawyers will now go collect? They should... It’s not like it was an act of god situation?
“I’m confused. What difference does the financial history of the house have to do with anything?

He was paid over$345,000 to restore to original condition.
Instead he built a new luxury home for about $900,000.
I posted a picture of his new house and the address for you to send your check to,
