"...Stop blaming the victim..."

---

Far from it. I primarily blame the cowardly "swatting" neighbor who created the tragic circumstances.
Do not open a door with a gun in your hand. Just leave the darn door locked.
Speak to people via the camera/intercom from a nice safe spot in your home or from upstairs window if camera/intercom is not feasible.

No. You’re blaming the victim. You’re saying if he’d had a security door and didn’t answer he’d be alive. THAT is victim blaming. Also it’s deeply screwed up that you now think we’re best served by treating the police like home invaders. And finally your advice has a proven track record of not working:

Like I said. Cops in the wrong mood show up at your place, you die. Period.
