The police could still have used other methods to do what needed done. They are using tactics that are more suitable for raids on fortified compounds and using them on suburban dwellings. For the amount of drugs that are often confiscated in these flash bang raids, it’s overkill.
Flash bangs - as i was trained and used them - are for a room of people who may pose a threat and ARE FULLY AWAKE - so when it does go off - it disorients them so the team can move in...when people are FULLY ASLEEP - it is not needed - do to the element of surprise and people trying to wake up...
all these Call of Duty video games that are played don’t show the consequences of stupid decisions...just click on “restart” and away we go...LEROY JENKINS!
This police state brutality should have ended there! Our so called "representatives" failed to hold any one accountable for the murder by fire of almost 80 US Citizens that day!
The popo need to be more creative, and stop relying on grunt force tactics.
They certainly are responsible for using a flashbang in a manner that was unsafe. Flashbangs are not toys, they are weapons. If they had burned a suspect, it would still be wrong.
All these accusations against the family, including this idiotic claim they used their child as a door stop, smell of CYA, made up excuses, and demonizing the victims without evidence.
