This is in Florida’s constitution? It would seem to say that the governor is supposed to protect us from SWAT excesses.

The SWAT teams do have affidavits, but as the article indicated, they’re generally lies. Apparently, judges see their role as aiding and abetting this assault on citizens.

I see no reason for SWAT raids. Just watch the place and grab them when they get the mail or go shopping. The bit with David Koresh and the Branch Dividians was ridiculous. likewise, Ruby Ridge and Elian Gonzales.

I’d also like to see officers punished for gratuitously shooting dogs when they have pepper spray and stun guns. Also, when the raid the wrong address. (A serious fine, at the very least, plus personal restitution.)

It's there, and I would agree that it's the gov's job to prevent such excesses.
