Has anyone here ever seen statistics on how many police officers have been shot during a “no-knock” raid?

You could click on the link to the Cato Institute study earlier in the thread, and filter on that.

Keep in mind that only “paramilitary” raids make the database, not all no-knock raids.

I have friends on several SWAT teams and they tell me the tensions are highest with “no knock” raids. The regular patrol officers HATE domestic disturbance calls because of the high risk of injury to officers.

Yes. See this excellent site: http://www.cato.org/raidmap/

More often than not, they wind up shooting themselves and trying to blame it on the occupants.
