So, what about burglars breaking into a house shouting “police”?
They’re identifying themselves as police, but they’re not.
I think the solution would be that no LEO is allowed to break into a house.
Then you’ll know. If they’re breaking into your house, they’re not police, FBI, etc.
It's more boring to have to do a stakeout and nab someone on the driveway, sidewalk or street.
Ringing the doorbell elicits a warm welcome.
Starting to break the door down elicits firing lots of somethings though the door that will penetrate steel. And other things.
Just ring the damned bell, if on legitimate business. That's easy and reasonable.
I’ve always thought that the criminals would start shouting police or acting as police as a means to get the jump on someone. Shouting police is not enough for the police to identify themselves. Any criminal can do that.
