My first reaction would have been to reach for my gun if someone busted into my home. Anybody here who wouldn’t have?

I think reaching for a gun would be anyone’s first reaction.
This could have ended in tragedy. The police really screwed up trying to make this bust.

I suspect most would have, and then outnumbered 15 to one would have been killed. And of course the criminals would get away with it.

You’d be a fool if you did reach for a single gun while outnumbered 15 to 1. The best reaction is to stay seated and stay calm, while asking quietly, “Can we help you, Officer?”

Then when the guns are put away you can march into Police Headquarters and throw a temper tantrum.

Me too.

And mine's not loaded with those little rounds that a Level II vest will stop, either...

That is the natural reaction, but you'd end up like the 92 year old woman the Atlanta police shot when they broke into her house by mistake.

And then you'd be dead.

And your survivors wouldn't even receive an apology.
