“unreasonable forcible entry into peoples homes?”
Although not quite a no-knock warrant, this is an example of searches that cross the line for me.

This was 100% political, excessive, and used legal “features” that abridged freedom of speech. This is the kind of search that should never be allowed.
Totally agree, this is bad one. Unfortunately I have read and studied dozens of cases just like this one. It's not rare at all. As a whole our society has really been snookered on the justification of this abuse of power. What is worse is it's being massively covered up as to just how prolific these abuses have become. No knock warrants, Swat teams and the supposed "war on drugs" are the main culprits. We have been head faked in a huge way. People need to start digging into the facts and thinking critically about what we are gaining by allowing the police to act in this manner.
Everyone here wants to back our police. We want police protection and we want the rule of law enforced. That being said we are like a giant society of alcoholics that are in denial. The first step is to admit we have a problem with the Police and their tactics.
