THE DRUG raid by Prince George's County law officers on the home of Berwyn Heights Mayor Cheye Calvo last week was a Keystone Kops operation from start to finish.
Acting on a tip that a 32-pound package of marijuana had been sent by Federal Express from Arizona to Mr. Calvo's home (addressed to his wife, Trinity Tomsic), Prince George's police swung into action. Which is to say they got on the phone, calling law enforcement agencies to see who might have a SWAT team available to bust the unsuspecting Calvo family. (It seems the police department's own team was tied up.) After being turned down at least once, they finally struck a deal with the Prince George's Sheriff's Office, whose track record with domestic disputes is extensive but whose experience with drug busts is slight. And it showed.

SOP...whenever a 'perp' runs for cover...he must be attempting to 'retreive' a weapon...
Or possibly an initiation rite for the gang...ya know the 'in with blood, out with blod' thingy ???
SSDD in the WOsD...
LFOD...
Thats the way the training is done isnt it ???
Youre either one of em, or yer not...its pretty obvious...
Yeah....that makes sense.
"Never mind."
the best I could do in this old farmhouse would be to embed claymores in the walls of the foyer...but that would be illegal...
which is why leo prolly is hesistant to invade the 'big fishs' home who has money to burn and doesnt give a ratzazz about society at all, while choosing the soft targets instead...
the police here are stupid.
they investigated my laptop burglary and concluded i stole it!
you should have seen these two! he, probably 275-300 lbs, she, probably 250. her cruiser tilted.
i waited 14 days and paid $17.00 to get the report and complained to their superivisor.
he called me several days later. i told him, not only am i insulted, but now the insurance company will not pay me.
he said, oh don’t worry. i know you did not steal your own computer—you gave us the serial number.
the insurance co paid.
Naw man... :-) Judicious use of re-bar and bar stock goes a LONG way in slowing people down coming through doors! Pretty-ing it up can be a trick. :-)
If anybody recalls...there is a FREEPER in Baltimore that had the Maryland Transit {Airport] police come to his door and arrested him...took his computer....a legal handgun...and marched him off because they thought he had phoned in a bomb threat to the Baltimore Airport.
Of course it wasn’t him. The police googled George Orwell and his name popped up....as he is an avid Orwell fan.
Long story short....he’s got a multi-million dollar lawsuit pending against them.
PS: Good Luck George!
yeah, good for him!
Obviously hardened-felon stoners who are training the dogs to kill on command. (/sarc)
I was close :>) @ http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2054394/posts?page=180#180
“...The sheriff, Michael Jackson, seems embarrassed by the whole episode. He should be....”
He SHOULD be kicked out of office and publicly FLOGGED, and BANNED FROM EVER SERVING IN A LAW ENFORCEMENT CAPACITY AGAIN.
Boiling right now...
...shooting LABRADORS RETRIVERS, for crying out loud?
I will keep my mouth shut very tightly at this point, because what wants to come out isn’t pretty.
No wonder these Pieces of sh*t wear face masks.
What is the political situation in that area? Is the Mayor a conservative Republican??? Just curious...
I smell set-up too.

Any update on the inmate death?
In a country where people have and exercise the right to keep and bear arms in defense of their homes and families, a "dynamic entry" raid of a home by anyone, including law enforcement is a potentially dangerous proposition. The more law enforcement employs and comes to rely on these tactics, the more they will be motived to find ways to restrict and discourage people from exercising that right.
Last I heard, the Corrections Officers on duty have yet to be interviewed by the ‘proper authorities’.
Attempts were made but they refused.
Thanks
Not that I ever heard of... she was a BATFag (BAT Lezzie???) and it was one of their search and destroy raids, no evil machineguns found. I guess she was just in a bitchy mood because they couldn’t haul someone off to prison for a gun-noncrime.
