Is that “guy” in the picture the fella that shot the cop?

Because if it is, he looks like 90% of our security forces where I am right now. LOL

It makes a difference when we start to contemplate the reasons why he might well have not heard the cops identify themselves. They say they did. Others say they didn't.

If they didn't identify themselves and he was normally in bed at that hour (because of work, health condition, etc.) he would truly have been surprised not knowing the caps were calling.

The question is whether or not the shooter is an innocent man who honestly believed he was defending himself.

What a pointless article. All she is doing is blabbing that nobody should form an opinion on the matter until it goes to trail. Sorry woman, but we do that all the time in society.

” if four guys with guns rush in on you yelling POLICE, give up; because if they are lying, they are still going to win any fight you start”

With a “don’t dare defend yourself” attitude you must be a cop. And are you saying that because it is 4 to 1 breaking into the VICTIMS house the common citizen should just give in? Before seeing any written proof it is a LEO?
Really???????

Unbelievable, sick, and sad. What a terrible attitude.

You should have lived in the USSR while they still had all the police services. You would have loved it.

Very good point, but cops doing no-knock raids do not respond with lights on. Sorry.

What would be the difficulty of having the lights and sirens triggered just as the cops are hitting the door?

Koresch and many of his followers KNEW the cops were there to investigate them.

Even if Koresh knew that the robbers breaking into his home were employed by the U.S. government, he had every right to shoot them since they were not there to legitimately serve a warrant. As it is, I'm not convinced that the dead BATF agents weren't killed by other agents. Indeed, the Congressional hearing testimony made clear that the BATF set up a circular firing squad.
