“No knock” warrants served on previously unarrested people should be stopped.

SWATting of people is one of these bad occasions.

Keep in mind that a no knock warrant is signed by a judge BEFORE execution. Such warrants are extremely rare, as the officers must convince the judge that certain exigent circumstances exist to circumvent the usual knock-notice requirement. Such circumstances usually include eminent danger to occupants ( eg hostage) or a sound reason to believe that the evidence sought will be destroyed.

Like defunding the police, beware what you ask for.
